from theinitial positionis computed. The magnitude determines the zoom speed. The direction of zoom, either in or out, is determined by whether the pointer is displaced closer to or farther from the projection plane. To perform the zoom, we first scale the platform coordinate system up or...
Back at the turn of the millennium you could put together a pretty good audio system for $10,000, and you could listen to many of those components in a local brick & mortar store if you lived in a decent size city. Sure there was some stratospherically priced gear in the $10,000 to...

There are several image/video compression methods, for example, JPEG, MPEG, and H.26X which are all based on motion estimation/compensation (ME/MC). But fractal compression, which is based on the iterated function system (IFS) proposed by Mandelbrot[1], is a relative new approach to image...
2. Proposed Method The schematic concept of this people-counting system is shown in Figure 1. The angle type of the camera was a side view and the angle was between 30 and 60 degrees. The height of the camera was between 3 and 5 m. We used two IMX 185 cameras [13] to construct ...
Unlike a lot of smart watches, the Withings ScanWatch Nova Brilliant takes health functions a step farther. It uses clinically developed scans to better monitor your health. It can access part of your respiratory system, perform a medical grade electrocardiogram, and could indicate the beginning of...
- for the legal system, to enforce the same customer protection rules as for any other product, including penalties for misrepresentation. Now don't get me wrong: I'm not talking about sound (which is subjective) or fiability (most high end products come with usage restriction, whether it'...
