We have designed a mobile -PDA-based- interface for real-time control of virtual characters in multiuser semi-immersive virtual environments - using a large rear-projection screen. The proof-of-concept implementation we present shows the potential of handh ...
This paper presents a scalable video coding scheme (MP3D), based on the use of a redundant 3-D spatio-temporal dictionary of functions. The spatial component of the dictionary consists of directional and anisotropically scaled functions, which form a rich ...
This paper presents a framework for joint adaptation of an audiovisual content and its metadata. The presentation of the audiovisual content and its metadata are balanced to fit the given screen size in a way that maximizes user experience in browsing the ...
The effect of boundary conditions (e.g., type of metal contacts) and sample geometry (e.g., sample aspect ratio) on measurements of direct longitudinal d(33) coefficient in piezoelectric ceramics is studied by direct quasistatic method. We show that at sma ...
This paper describes the results of a series of subjective experiments that investigated the annoyance caused by the most common artifacts present in segmented video sequences. Various types of artifacts were inserted into a reference segmented video consi ...
The recent advance of computer technology pushed the computing power of the modern computer systems to unprecedented levels; modern processors moved from the conventional, scalar type of architecture to more sophisticated, parallel ones, combining fast pro ...
This paper describes a video surveillance system which is composed of three key components, smart cameras, a server, and clients, connected through IP-networks in wired or wireless configurations. The system has been designed so as to protect the privacy o ...
This paper discusses distributed coding of two correlated video signals. The video signals are captured from a dynamic scene where each signal is temporally decorrelated by a motion-compensated Haar wavelet. The two cameras operate independently, however, ...
Given two video sequences, a composite video sequence can be generated which includes visual elements from each of the given sequences, suitably synchronized and represented in a chosen focal plane. For example, given two video sequences with each showing ...
The present thesis deals with new composite photoresists for the UV-LIGA and microstereolithography microfabrication processes. The aim is to build functional 3D objects, with high aspect ratio. Two projects have been investigated in parallel for each micr ...
