With the introduction of the original Radeon the general rendering performance landscape changed significantly due to the revolutionary technology that is HyperZ. Today this technology has been upgraded, fine-tuned and improved in several generations and is now a general commodity that everyone expects to have. Yet it is sometimes not well understood or taken proper advantage of. Developing 3D ...

Recently, a variety of stereoscopic contents have been provided to academic and industrial fields for broadcasting, movies and mobile materials. However, few works have been interested in the adjustment of 3D contents for diverse displays. For instance, movie contents suited to large screen frequently do not deliver the same 3D perception to small-size screen such as mobile phone, tabular PCs, ...

Water wheels used for power generation are applied to tailwater and ultra-low head sites. In this research, the VOF method standard k-ε turbulence model utilized predict performance transient flow fields of water wheels. The numerical results show a reasonable agreement with experimental data. This work aims at improving increasing internal fluid stability wheel, based on entropy production app...

Low-head dams can be dangerous to recreational river users when a submerged hydraulic jump forms downstream, with recirculating surface flows that repeatedly carry trapped recreationists upstream into the high-velocity jet plunging over dam crest. The flow endangers those who pass from and also entrap approach too closely downstream. A national task force is using range of methods identify pote...

The relationship between color and perceived depth for realistic, colored objects with varying shading was explored. Background: Studies have shown that warm-colored stimuli tend to appear nearer in depth than cool-colored stimuli. The majority of these studies asked human observers to view physically equidistant, colored stimuli and compare them for relative depth. However, in most cases, the ...

This paper will present details of a system that allows for an evolutionary introduction of depth perception into the existing 2D digital TV framework. The work is part of the European Information Society Technologies (IST) project “Advanced Three-Dimensional Television System Technologies” (ATTEST), an activity, where industries, research centers and universities have joined forces to design a...
