Introduction to MSME Products in Sidoarjo Regency Using Augmented Reality

Explanation of UMKMs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises) is a business that has a very important role in the economy of a country, both in terms of the existing in the field of employment or created in terms of the number of businesses that exist. Explanation of UMKMs in terms of micro enterprises can also be interpreted as businesses owned by individuals or a productive economic business entity in accordance with the criteria of various micro, small, and medium enterprises. The purpose of this research is so that students can design an application that is able to display 3D objects of UMKM products, and also to introduce UMKM products to consumers more easily and more efficiently. The method used is marked based tracking, then used as a marker is a card with a picture of UMKM products, and also augmented reality is using vuforia library as a database of UMKM product identifiers displayed, and unity engine software using the C# programming language. The result of the research obtained is an augmented reality application that can bring up UMKM products in the form of a virtual 3-dimensional object display. The benefit of this research is that the augmented reality application of UMKM products can make it easier for manufacturers to introduce their products to consumers.

Dies ist die von Andrew Griebeler durchgeführte Übersetzung des deutschen Titels Ecce fides. Die Statue in Conques, Götzendienst und Bildkultur im Westen, die 2007 erstmals erschien. Wie der Übersetzer bereits in seinem Vorwort bemerkt, stellt diese Übersetzung zwar keinen neuen Forschungsstand her, doch entstand die Übersetzung in enger Zusammenarbeit mit Beate Fricke, so dass ein neuer, der englischen Sprache angepasster Text entstand. Für den deutschsprachigen Leser ergibt sich damit kein erheblicher Vorteil, ist das Original doch nicht nur in der eigenen Muttersprache erhältlich, sondern mittlerweile auch digital vollständig zugänglich (einsehbar unter: <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="https://digi20.digitale-sammlungen.de/de/fs1/object/display/bsb00066171_00001.html);">https://digi20.digitale-sammlungen.de/de/fs1/object/display/bsb00066171_00001.html);</ext-link> aber der englischsprachige Leser wird gerne auf dieses neue Angebot zurückgreifen, das eine wichtige kunsthistorische Arbeit zugänglich macht, die über den engeren Fall der berühmten Statue der Heiligen Fides von Conques hinaus auf die Bedeutung der skulpturalen Darstellung in der westlichen Kunst des Hochmittelalters eingeht.

Subliminal Gamma Flicker Draws Attention Even in the Absence of Transition-Flash Cues

We recently reported evidence indicating that selective attention is deployed to a target location in a multi-object display, when the target event (a change of one of the objects) is preceded by subliminal flicker in the gamma range. However, concerns have been raised regarding the stimuli used in this study and the possible contribution of an artifactual cue: a “transition flash” between pretarget flicker offset and target onset. Here, we report a series of experiments investigating the existence and potential contribution to selective attention of this transition-flash cue under different presentation conditions. We find that, although the transition flash is a real phenomenon (detection rates ≃ 15% > chance), it cannot, on its own, explain the original effects of gamma flicker on the response time to target detection. Even after eliminating this flash, detection was significantly faster, or more accurate, for targets preceded (vs. not preceded) by flicker. This congruency effect (≈15 ms) demonstrates that gamma flicker on its own is sufficient to engage selective attention. This interpretation is further strengthened by a reevaluation of 1) experiment 7 reported by van Diepen and colleagues and 2) the validity effect experiment reported by Bauer and colleagues. Possible reasons for the discrepant results are also discussed.

Electrophysiological Evidence of Semantic Interference in Visual Search

Visual evoked responses were monitored while participants searched for a target (e.g., bird) in a four-object display that could include a semantically related distractor (e.g., fish). The occurrence of both the target and the semantically related distractor modulated the N2pc response to the search display: The N2pc amplitude was more pronounced when the target and the distractor appeared in the same visual field, and it was less pronounced when the target and the distractor were in opposite fields, relative to when the distractor was absent. Earlier components (P1, N1) did not show any differences in activity across the different distractor conditions. The data suggest that semantic distractors influence early stages of selecting stimuli in multielement displays.

Workload and Stress of Configural Displays in Vigilance Tasks

The workload and stress associated with corrfigural displays in two vigilance tasks were investigated. Two kinds of configural displays were employed: A bar graph display and an object display. A non-configural bar graph display served as a control group. Relative to the non-configural display, both configural displays improved performance in a task requiring integration of information, but were not significantly different from the control group in a task requiring focused attention to display elements. The object display reduced workload in both tasks, but the bar graph configural display did not. Results showed a complex pattern of association/dissociation of workload with performance. Self reports of stress revealed that the tasks were stressful but that configural displays did not reduce the stress of either task.
