The intensity data produced by terrestrial laser scanners has become a topic of increasing interest in the remote sensing community. We present a case study of radiometric calibration for two phase-shift continuous wave (CW) terrestrial scanners and discuss some major issues in correcting and applying the intensity data, and a practical calibration scheme based on external reference targets. Th...

Different reference frames appear to be relevant for tactile spatial coding. When participants give temporal order judgments (TOJ) of two tactile stimuli, one on each hand, performance declines when the hands are crossed. This effect is attributed to a conflict between anatomical and external location codes: hand crossing places the anatomically right hand into the left side of external space. ...

Using automatic memory management eliminates many programming errors that are both hard to find and to correct. Automatic memory management has been used frequently in functional and object oriented languages. These languages have rarely been used in hard real-time systems in the past. However, JavaTM has made the hard realtime community interested because of it robustness and platform independ...
