A major component of 3D design involves the manipulation of curved surfaces or the complex triangle meshes which approximate them. In the specific case of land-use planning design, these surfaces often represent the underlying terrain. Many techniques exist for the deformation of terrain surfaces for a single user. Building on existing work in the use of laser pointers for shared display groupw...

The UK government’s ‘Levelling Up’ agenda represents the latest attempt to address long-standing inter-regional socio-economic disparities in England. This paper assesses how Levelling Up White Paper, published early 2022, frames problem of interregional inequality and potential proposed solutions contained within problem. We argue that as currently framed is likely be too spatially vague achie...

Kinematics GPS and inertia movement instrumentation technology has developed rapidly, which achieved to provide a high and stable accuracy of spatial positioning, attitude in three dimensions for high-speed movement platform such as aircraft. The airborne laser measurement system which is based on the laser scanning technology, has been integrated to the GPS inertia movement instrument on the a...

The growth of compositionally uniform alloy crystals is promising for variety of applications because lattice parameters as well as electrical and optical properties can be controlled by composition. Among them, InxGa1-xAs bulk crystals are expected as substrates of laser diodes with emitting wavelength of 1.3 μm. High optical gain with small temperature dependence was demonstrated for strained...

The Passage mechanism introduced in this paper provides an easy and intuitive way to transport various types of digital objects by using also normal physical objects without any special identification tags. The current implementation of the Passage mechanism utilizes electronic scales and contact-free identification devices and thus allows for identification of arbitrary physical objects as wel...

Laser return intensity, delivering the surface reflectivity information in the laser wavelength, is function of many variables and ignored in most application projects. However, by a process of SILC (Spectral Imagery LIDAR Composite), laser return points can be fused with accurate spectral attributes from the high quality images provided by aerial cameras on the same board, through which the la...

In this study, we incorporated mixing units of three-dimensional (3D) interconnected pore network inside microfluidic channels by combining single prism holographic lithography and photolithography. 3D pore network structures were generated by the interference of four laser beams generated by a truncated triangular pyramidal prism. The levelling between the 3D porous structures and the channel ...
