How To Project On 3D Geometry Russian | French | Italian Note that due to the manual nature of the described approach your results will not be perfect, but can be quite good depending on your patience. Introduction All the above mentioned topics deal with the same problem: Find the pose (position, orientation) of an object or the pose and lens characteristics (field of view, shift) of a camera viewing that object. In cinematography with 3d visual effects the terms "match moving" or "camera tracking" are used to describe the problem of matching a real world scene with its virtual counterpart in order to mix them together seamlessly. For this task a list of software exists (boujou, 3d equalizer, ...) that makes the live of visual effects people easier. For realtime computergraphics the ARToolKit provides a way that works for certain situations (see ARTK+Tracker?

How automobile is made - production process, manufacture, making, used, parts, components, product Background In 1908 Henry Ford began production of the Model T automobile. Based on his original Model A design first manufactured in 1903, the Model T took five years to develop. Its creation inaugurated what we know today as the mass production assembly line. This revolutionary idea was based on the concept of simply assembling interchangeable component parts. Ford's first venture into automobile assembly with the Model A involved setting up assembly stands on which the whole vehicle was built, usually by a single assembler who fit an entire section of the car together in one place. Ford soon recognized that walking from stand to stand wasted time and created jam-ups in the production process as faster workers overtook slower ones. Raw Materials Although the bulk of an automobile is virgin steel, petroleum-based products (plastics and vinyls) have come to represent an increasingly large percentage of automotive components.

But for the vast majority of buyers, a car is simply an appliance. And, like the toaster or blender sitting on your kitchen counter, cars don't tend to take up a lot of space in their owners' brains. That is, until the car somehow breaks. The thing is, despite recent high-profile recalls, on the whole, cars are more reliable than ever before. That's because car makers have begun to master a key step in automobile manufacturing: quality control. The quality control process starts long before the first production models of a vehicle roll off the assembly line. Keep reading to find out just how automotive quality control works and about the extreme tests that your car had to go through before it was allowed to hit the road.
