Dynamic projection mapping for a moving object according to its position and shape is fundamental for augmented reality to resemble changes on a target surface. For instance, augmenting the human arm surface via dynamic projection mapping can enhance applications in fashion, user interfaces, prototyping, education, medical assistance, and other fields. For such applications, however, conventional methods neglect skin deformation and have a high latency between motion and projection, causing noticeable misalignment between the target arm surface and projected images. These problems degrade the user experience and limit the development of more applications. We propose a system for high-speed dynamic projection mapping onto a rapidly moving human arm with realistic skin deformation. With the developed system, the user does not perceive any misalignment between the arm surface and projected images. First, we combine a state-of-the-art parametric deformable surface model with efficient regression-based accuracy compensation to represent skin deformation. Through compensation, we modify the texture coordinates to achieve fast and accurate image generation for projection mapping based on joint tracking. Second, we develop a high-speed system that provides a latency between motion and projection below 10 ms, which is generally imperceptible by human vision. Compared with conventional methods, the proposed system provides more realistic experiences and increases the applicability of dynamic projection mapping.

Spin-polarized scanning electron microscopy (spin SEM), where the secondary electron spin polarization is used as the image signal, is a novel technique for magnetic domain observation. Since its first development by Koike and Hayakawa in 1984, several laboratories have extensively studied this technique and have greatly improved its capability for data extraction and its range of applications. This paper reviews the progress over the last few years.Almost all the high expectations initially held for spin SEM have been realized. A spatial resolution of several hundreds angstroms has been attained, which is nearly one order of magnitude higher than that of conventional methods for thick samples. Quantitative analysis of magnetization direction has been performed more easily than with conventional methods. Domain observation of the surface of three-dimensional samples has been confirmed to be possible. One of the drawbacks, a long image acquisition time, has been eased by combining highspeed image-signal processing with high speed scanning, although at the cost of image quality. By using spin SEM, the magnetic structure of a 180 degrees surface Neel wall, magnetic thin films, multilayered films, magnetic discs, etc., have been investigated.

White Light Corona

ABSTRACT Light and dark adaptation and luminance contrast enhancement are well-known characteristics of human vision that allow us to observe a wide range of light intensity not fully captured in standard camera images. The naked-eye observations of total eclipses, some recorded with spectacular detail in artists’ paintings, reveal structure that is consistent with images obtained by telescopes equipped with recording media. The actual shape of the corona during a total eclipse depends not only on the phase of the solar cycle but, as can be simply demonstrated, also on the day-to-day variability and spatial distribution of coronal intensity that is determined by solar surface magnetic fields, including the locations of coronal holes that are the sources of high-speed solar wind causing geomagnetic storms. The latter were very similar for the eclipses in 1932, 1994, and 2017, which is the main reason why the naked-eye observations, as well as the processed images (1994 and 2017), of the white-light corona displayed very similar shapes. White-light corona image processing is a useful technique to enhance the contrast to observe fine-scale structure that is consistent with the physics of the solar atmosphere shaped by the magnetic field drawn out into the interplanetary space by solar wind.

Reconstruction and projection mapping enable us to bring virtual worlds into real spaces, which can give spectators an immersive augmented reality experience. Based on an interactive system with RGB-depth sensor and projector, we present a combined hardware and software solution for surface reconstruction and dynamic projection mapping in real time. In this article, a novel and adaptable calibration scheme is proposed, which is used to estimate approximate models to correct and transform raw depth data. Besides, our system allows for smooth real-time performance using an optimization framework, including denoising and stabilizing. In the entire pipeline, markers are only used in the calibration procedure, and any priors are not needed. Our approach enables us to interact with the target surface in real time, while maintaining correct illumination. It is easy and fast to develop different applications for our system, and some interesting cases are demonstrated at last.

Tilting Pad Journal Bearing

A new method of lubricant feeding is presented for tilting pad journal bearing and its effect on the thermohydrodynamic performance of the bearing is investigated theoretically and experimentally for various operating conditions. The new method can significantly reduce the maximum pad temperature compared with conventional methods, and its effect becomes pronounced with the increase in operating shaft speed. The method is promising for high speed journal pad bearing which is rapidly decreasing a safety margin against seizure due to the dangerously rising maximum pad temperature.

Main Components

A solid-state volumetric true 3D display developed by Hefei University of Technology consists of two main components: a high-speed video projector and a stack of liquid crystal shutters. The shutters are based on polymer stabilized cholesteric texture material, presenting different states that can be switched by different voltage. The high-speed video projector includes LED-based light source and tree-chip digital micro-mirror devices modulating RGB lights. A sequence of slices of three-dimensional images are projected into the liquid crystal shutters locating at the proper depth, forming a true 3D image depending on the human vision persistence. The prototype is developed. The measurement results show that the screen brightness can reach 149 nit and no flickers can be perceived.

Manual Testing

Logical effort is the ratio of the input capacitance of a gate to the input capacitance of an inverter delivering the same output current.. Conventional methods use repetitive manual testing guided by Logical Effort (LE).In our work, we choose gate widths inside the circuit as parameters to be optimized in order to achieve the target delay, using LE.The main objective of the paper is to calculate the delay using VerilogHDL and synthesized the output driven by it by increasing the speed using optimized paths.
