An inexpensive microcomputer peripheral I/O expansion

An inexpensive, microcomputer-based, video densitometer for quantitating thin-layer chromatographic spots.

An inexpensive video densitometer based on an Apple II microcomputer using commercially available components was developed. The device was used to quantitate charred lipid and colored spots on thin-layer chromatography plates. The method is useful for lipid samples weighing 0.1 to 4 micrograms on high-performance plates and 1 to 20 micrograms on ordinary plates. The software automatically corre...

An inexpensive blackbody model

A blackbody is a fundamental concept in thermography. A perfect model of blackbody is characterized by emissivity =1 which is difficult to be obtained. There are black body simulators which are being used for calibration of infrared devices. Commercial solutions of blackbody simulators are based on mathematical models of cavity or surface blackbodies and their emissivity is closer to unity e.g....

Real-time microcomputer system design - an introduction

An Inexpensive Light Stage Dome

This article describes a process for constructing a real-world 1 m-diameter icosahedral dome frame with equipment mounting points at the vertices. Such frames, called Light Stage domes, are important tools for computer graphics and vision measurements and relighting applications. Typical domes have 2 m diameter and are constructed from bolted steel parts. The new half-size dome is inexpensive, ...
