We propose to control the motion of nanoparticles using phase-gradient metasurfaces. The latter are used to generate surface waves, which put the particles into motion, when illuminated by a normally incident plane wave. We present an initial study of the ...
Many visual attributes of a target stimulus are computed according to dynamic, non-retinotopic reference frames. For example, the motion trajectory of a reflector on a bicycle wheel is perceived as orbital, even though it is in fact cycloidal in retinal, a ...

We investigated how the visual system selects a reference frame for the perception of motion. Two concentric arcs underwent circular motion around the center of the display, where observers fixated. The outer (target) arc's angular velocity profile was mod ...

There has been a huge increase in interest for wearable communication devices in the last ten years. Applications are manifold, ranging from rescue to fashion over medical devices and safety, leading to the definition of new standards for Body Area Network ...

The retinotopic projection of stimulus motion depends both on the motion of the stimulus and the movements of the observer. In this study, we aimed to quantify the contributions of endogenous (retinotopic) and exogenous (spatiotopic and motion-based) refer ...

This work focuses on trapping subwavelength objects using resonant plasmonic structures. Trapping entities include latex spheres, living cells and metallic particles; the plasmonic structures involved include subwavelength disks, subwavelength apertures, a ...

A couple of experiments are here presented to clarify the impact of slow light on light-matter interaction. The experiments are designed, so that the process generating slow light and the probed light-matter interaction only present a marginal cross-effect ...

Ziegler's pendulum is an appropriate model of a nonconservative dynamic system. By considering gravity effect, new equations of motion are extracted from Newton's motion laws. The instability of equilibriums is determined by linear stability analysis. Chao ...

In this paper we present a new methodology to extract the small error-prone motion recorded during a Computed Tomography (CT) imaging directly from the sinogram. In comparison to the use of the usual reconstructed images, this approach has the advantage to ...
We present a probabilistic approach to learn robust models of human motion through imitation. The association of Hidden Markov Model (HMM), Gaussian Mixture Regression (GMR) and dynamical systems allows us to extract redundancies across multiple demonstrat ...
