Current Projects | GRASP Laboratory - University Of Pennsylvania The Autonomous Aerial Vehicles rresearch project is mainly focused around autonomous navigation of unmanned air vehicles. The challenge is to design systems, which exhibit a goal-driven behavior, while sensing and reacting to changing environment. This project is a collaboration between students and faculty from University of Pennsylvania and industry experts from Dragonfly Pictures, Inc. The GRASP Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania is proud to be operating a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site entitled Perception, Planning, Mobility, and Interaction for Next Generation Robotics. Please see the GRASP REU Site's website for all details on this program. Haptography, like photography in the visual domain, enables an individual to quickly record the haptic feel of a real object and reproduce it later for others to interact with in a variety of contexts.

Projector Array for 3D Facial Display Projectors are rapidly shrinking in size, power consumption, and cost. Such projectors provide unprecedented flexibility to stack, arrange, and aim pixels without the need for moving parts. We present a dense projector display that is optimized in size and resolution to display an autostereoscopic life-sized 3D human face with a wide 110 degree field of view. Our display is built from off-the-shelf components. We drive our projector array using a single computer with twenty-four 1920x480 video outputs from four AMD FirePro W600 Eyefinity graphics cards. Our display achieves autostereoscopic horizontal parallax without lag. In a collaboration with Activision Inc. we demonstrate Digital Ira: a real-time facial rig incorporating expression blending and physically-based eye and skin shaders [Alexander et. al. 2013].
Make Your Amateur Photos More Professional | Photography With everyone and their grandmother having a digital camera you can make almost anybody look like a professional photographer, well, better-than-amateur at least. You can use this simple process on almost any photo you take. Let’s start with our regular, old, point-and-shoot photo. This one was taken with a little higher-end camera, but it can still use a lot of work. First, we’re going to sharpen our image a bit using the Unsharp Mask [Filter > Sharpen > Unsharp Mask]. Now we’re going to add a Levels Adjustment layer [Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Levels]. Next step is to add a Brightness/Contrast Adjustment layer [Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Brightness/Contrast]. One more adjustment layer… the Hue/Saturation Adjustment layer [Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Hue/Saturation]. Now you can probably already see how much of a difference these few steps make. It’s a subtle change, but it usually makes the photo look nicer. I’m going to start by duplicating my Background Layer [Ctrl + J].
Flexible Stream • Digital Wood Joints Wood Joints are fascinating! They embellish old furniture and wood constructions of ancient Japanese temples alike. Everytime we come across them, we are filled with admiration: Admiration for the skill of the master craftsman, as their creator, but also admiration for the balance between function and beauty, which turns the furniture or temple into a work of art. With the onset of industrialisation, the traditional wood joints have been banned more and more to the background. As computer-controlled wood processing machines move into the cabinet-makers' workshops, the way two pieces of wood are joined together in a construction needs to be reconsidered. The result of this research are 50 digital wood joints, divided into frame joints, board joints and carcass joints. We are looking forward for the submission of your modifications and pictures of implementation. Arto from Finland has done some Davetone Mixcubes:

CMU Sphinx - Speech Recognition Toolkit amazon.co Product Description The brand new Silver Metallic Paper from PermaJet! - Titanium Lustre has a beautiful pronounced textured finish on a heavyweight 280gsm silver resin coated base. This new photo paper truly resembles the look, feel and print quality of a metallic surface with its high silver pigment content - this is NOT one of the much less impressive 'pearlescent' papers on the market which is simply an 'effect' on the coating - the base of Titanium really does look like silver!! Incredible detail and clarity is achievable delivering stunning high resolution visual impact and making your images just jump off the paper. Its great tonal range, wide colour gamut and high D-max works extremely well with images that have vibrant colours, deep blacks or containing reflective metal surfaces such as chrome, silver or even gold! Try printing your black and white images on this surface - you will not believe what you can achieve in the tonal highlights and greys. Box Contains

How-To: Mix and Mold GFRC Concrete, as most folks know, is strong under compression but weak under tension, and is commonly strengthened by casting it around, e.g. a grid of steel reinforcing bar (“re-bar”). Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete is, well, pretty much exactly what it sounds like: concrete reinforced with glass fibers. As in most composite materials, the fiber elements in GFRC can be carefully oriented, or randomly distributed, in the solid matrix. The nice thing about the latter method is that you can just mix the reinforcing fibers into the bulk concrete and don’t have to pre-position them in the mold. GFRC concrete panels can be much thinner and lighter than metal-reinforced slabs, and the glass fibers are not subject to corrosion. If you’re interested in experimenting with GFRC, however, you may have noticed that practical how-to information is a bit scarce online. In the first, Brandon details three different concrete mix recipes used in the casting of a GFRC bathroom counter with integral sink.
Pentagram Lacing Notes: • If the crossovers of the laces are carefully woven as shown, the centre of the pentagram will have all the "overpasses" running clockwise, which helps to maintain the shape more securely. • This lacing works best with thinner or flat laces because several eyelets have to accommodate two passes of shoelace. • These diagrams are drawn with the pentagrams fairly symmetrical and centered. Running the horizontal sections through different eyelets will change the proportions of the five points. • On shoes with a tongue centering loop, the top point can be run through that loop to eliminate the upper "rung". • Although I haven't yet created diagrams for fewer than five eyelet pairs, it is possible to create a pentagram using four eyelet pairs, or an inverted pentagram using as few as three eyelet pairs. • An inverted pentagram is used by some people as a Satanic or occultic symbol.
