Façade integrated photovoltaics (FIPV) is an emerging and essential way to utilize solar energy in built environment. However, there limited architectural study of FIPV, especially addressing the topic colour performance. This developed a theoretical method with pixelated design for integrating opaque coloured on building facades. The city Trondheim Norway was taken as case study. Two main faça...

Pixel detectors become an integral part of medical imaging, nondestructive testing, space science and particle physics. Sensors that are bump bonded to readout ASICs made from various materials such as GaAs, Si, CdTe, CdZnTe. Current research tends use CdTe/CdZnTe gamma-ray sensors due its high absorption coefficient in the gamma spectrum. With decreasing size pixel pitch, charge diffusion seco...

Traditional texture mapping uses sampled images of limited resolution to represent patterns on surfaces. Sampling inherently assumes that the underlying pattern is band limited, which in plain language means that it must not contain any crisp edges. Unfortunately, most real world patterns violate that constraint, and the result is that texture mapped surfaces appear either artificially pixelate...

This paper describes research in developing a dynamic quantitative phase imaging microscope providing instantaneous measurements of dynamic motions within and among live cells without labels or contrast agents. It utilizes a pixelated phase mask enabling simultaneous measurement of multiple interference patterns derived using the polarization properties of light to track dynamic motions and mor...

A novel, miniaturized optoelectronic tweezers (OET) system has been developed using a CMOS-controlled GaN micro-pixelated light emitting diode (LED) array as an integrated micro-light source. The micro-LED array offers spatio-temporal and intensity control of the emission pattern, enabling the creation of reconfigurable virtual electrodes to achieve OET. In order to analyse the mechanism respon...

A new method for measuring the electron mobility, the electron mean free drift time, and their product has been developed for pixelated semiconductor detectors. Using data from a standard calibration measurement, these three quantities are measured and compared against results using other methods. Since the results can be easily obtained, comparisons of many detectors have been completed and sh...

This paper designs a segmentation method for an image based on its Fourier spectral data. An edge map is generated directly from the Fourier coefficients without first reconstructing the image in pixelated form. Consequently the internal boundaries of the edgemap are not blurred by any (filtered) Fourier reconstruction. The edgemap is then processed with an edge linking segmentation algorithm. ...
