Comic Master This is How Information Fluency Skills Help You In the Classroom Tired of receiving work from your students with incorrect information from questionable sources and unreliable websites? Tired of seeing kids hit the first link on their Google search as the extent of their research, or using Wikipedia as their only source for information? Have no fear, because Information Fluency skills are the answer. You can teach students to use a framework that guides them through vetting information and determining its accuracy before using it in their projects. Using Information Fluency Skills in Class We are bombarded with information every second of our lives. Information Fluency goes hand-in-hand with Solution Fluency, the framework for project-based Learning. Before you begin a project which involves information gathering or research, post the steps of Information fluency prominently in your classroom. Ask: This involves compiling a list of critical questions about what knowledge or data is being sought. And … go! We examine what’s on the table. Got Skills?

REVIEW - CARENADO PA46 Malibu Mirage FSX/P3D - Aircraft - AVSIM - Front Page - AVSIM Front Page Introduction Designed in the 1970s, the Malibu Mirage is the third pressurized single engine piston aircraft ever built. First prototype flew in late 1979, but production did not start until 1988 (Mirage). Piper had decided to enter a fast growing market and offer a pressurized single engine aircraft that could cruise at medium altitude and had excellent performance. The Malibu Mirage came equipped with a Textron Lycoming TIO-540-AE2A 350hp engine, which gave it a good amount of power and comfort. During re-certification, the aircraft demonstrated very good tolerance to flutter and g-loads so after several recommendations regarding the use of the autopilot, the aircraft was once again cleared to take to the skies, and has not looked back since. Installation and Documentation Single ZIP download of 176Mb. Regarding P3D installation, the installer asks if you would like an FSX or P3D installation, and simply lets you specify the location of the SIM of your choice. What comes in the pack? Panel

openni/Contests/ROS 3D/RGBD-6D-SLAM Description: The Kinect is used to generate a colored 3D model of an object or a complete room. Submitted By: Felix Endres, Juergen Hess, Nikolas Engelhard, Juergen Sturm, Daniel Kuhner, Philipp Ruchti, Wolfram Burgard Keywords: RGBD-SLAM, 3D-SURF, Feature Matching, RANSAC, Graph SLAM, Model Generation, Real-time This page describes the software package that we submitted for the ROS 3D challenge. Summary We developed a novel method to quickly acquire colored 3D models of objects and indoor scenes with a hand-held Kinect camera. Video In the video we show the generation of a model of our PR2 and a 360° "panorama" of the students lab. Data As a sample for building 3D object models, here is an example of a box and a mug. The scene has been captured with several snapshots instead of a continuous run, to reduce the size of the resulting file. The bag file can be used to play the globally corrected point clouds, e.g., for visualization with rviz: rosbag play <bagfile>. How to Reproduce The Entry 1.

Carenado – Beechcraft B1900D for FSX/P3D | SimReviewsHouse In the last days I was flying in the FSX with another iconic aircraft, the Beechcraft B1900D. It is one of the most popular airliner in its class. With a capacity of 19 passengers (depending of internal configuration) it is operated by many countries and are present in many flight simulators for PC. The version that I use was made by Carenado, well known company for GA (General Aviation) add-ons for FSX/Prepar3D and X-Plane. Installation and Manuals The package includes two files, the main aircraft (213 MB) and a free bundle of liveries (81 MB). – Avidyne multifunction display and the Garmin GNS530. – EFIS (Electronic Flight Information System) that includes the Autopilot, the Altitude Pre-selector, the EADI (Electronic Attitude Director Indicator) and the EHSI (Electronic Horizontal Situation Indicator). – FMS (Flight Management System). – Electronic Vertical Speed Indicator with TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance System) included. – Performance tables.

openni_kinect/kinect_accuracy This page discusses both the precision and the accuracy of the Kinect sensor. If you are not sure what the difference between precision and accuracy is, check out this Wikipedia page. Precision of the Kinect sensor Because the Kinect is essentially a stereo camera, the expected error on its depth measurements is proportional to the distance squared. The raw depth images coming from the Kinect sensor are not rectified. Accuracy of the Kinect sensor The accuracy of a calibrated Kinect sensor turns out to be very high. The accuracy of the Kinect is greatly affected by the intrinsic and extrinsic calibration of the Kinect cameras.
