Cool materials have high solar reflectance (high ability to reflect sunlight), thermal emittance radiate heat) and stay cool in the sun. Various coatings been developed recently. This paper analyses a prototype low cost coating using lime which shows 15% increase compared with standard coating. Also, ageing effect of coloured white are studied while they exposed outdoor conditions. The study that there is an attenuation coatings' spectral demonstrate almost negligible loss visible range,...
Culture is a field that currently entering revolutionary phase, no longer being privilege for the few, but expanding to new audiences who are urged not only passively consume cultural heritage content, actually participate and assimilate it on their own. In this context, museums have already embraced technologies as part of exhibitions, many them featuring augmented or virtual reality artifacts. The presented work proposes synthesis augmented, mixed provide unified X-Reality experiences in...
In this paper, we address the problem of recognizing student engagement in prosocial games by exploiting cues from different input modalities. Since is a multifaceted phenomenon with dimensions, i.e., behavioral, cognitive, and affective, propose modeling using real-time data both students game. More specifically, apply body motion facial expression analysis to identify affective state students, while extract features related their cognitive behavioral based on interaction For automatic...
Real-time and vision-based quality control for industrial processes has drawn great interest from both scientists practitioners, particularly following the transition to Zero Defect Manufacturing (ZDM) Industry 4.0. Despite considerable progress, most ZDM approaches focus on accuracy of inspection process, often neglecting critical factors application in shop floor. On one hand, near real-time methods are needed early defect detection containment. other data scarcity is an issue causing AI...
Background Patients undergoing surgery often experience stress and anxiety, which can increase complications hinder recovery. Effective management of these psychological factors is key to improving outcomes. Preoperative anxiety inversely correlated with the amount information patients receive, but accessible, personalized support remains limited, especially in preoperative settings. Face-to-face education impractical due resource constraints. Digital health (DH) interventions offer a...

A challenging research issue, which has recently attracted a lot of attention, is the incorporation emotion recognition technology in serious games applications, order to improve quality interaction and enhance gaming experience. To this end, paper, we present an methodology that utilizes information extracted from multimodal fusion analysis identify affective state players during gameplay scenarios. More specifically, two monomodal classifiers have been designed for extracting based on...
Video games are maturing as a medium to tell stories inspired by historical struggles and real-life experiences. In this regard, they could work mechanism in Transitional Justice pursuit. article, we argue that can become agents for promoting education, reconciliation, healing. We hence identify means which museums video create empathy, reported recent literature, draw inceptive parallels between museum space design philosophies choices modern game Finally, the literature there is lack of...
Background: Augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI) are highly disruptive technologies that have revolutionised practices in a wide range of domains, including the security sector. Several law enforcement agencies (LEAs) employ AI their daily operations for forensics surveillance. AR is also gaining traction security, particularly with advent affordable wearable devices. Equipping police officers tools to facilitate an elevated situational awareness (SA) patrolling tactical...
In this paper, a gaze-based Relevance Feedback (RF) approach to region-based image retrieval is presented. Fundamental idea of the proposed method comprises iterative estimation real-world objects (or their constituent parts) that are interest user and subsequent exploitation information for refining results. Primary novelties work are: a) introduction new set gaze features realizing user's relevance assessment prediction at region-level, b) design time-efficient effective object-based RF...
Tele-immersion (TI) related technologies can change the way people interact and bridge gap between physical digital worlds. However, while technology itself advances, most developed platforms have complex setups require large investments. In this work, a low-cost platform is introduced, integrating multiple TI-related advances. Focusing on ease of use rapid deployment, fast fully automatic calibration method proposed. The enables real-time 3D reconstruction users their placement into...
This paper presents gamification concepts implemented by a engine which is incorporated in knowledge sharing web-based application. The aims at increasing user’s motivation and participation training processes taking place on factory’s shop floor, enhance socialization support corrective feedback positive reinforcement. In particular, it motivates workers to participate discussions, propose solutions work-related problems, upload/view useful content even when being the workplace. makes use...
Hintergrund: Diese Studie hatte zum Ziel, die Häufigkeit der intra- und postoperativen Komplikationen zwischen modernen Phakoemulsifikationstechnik extrakapsulären Kataraktextraktion bei Patienten mit Pseudoexfoliationssyndrom zu vergleichen. Methoden: prospektive randomisierte schloss 94 Augen Katarakt, Pseudoexfoliationssyndrom, engen Pupillen leichter bis mäßiger Phakodonesis ein. wurden in zwei Gruppen randomisiert. Alle ersten Gruppe (47 Augen) mittels standardisierter operiert:...
5G will lay the foundations for mainstream broadband wireless technology of next decade, a leverage toward ensuring efficiency, effectiveness and adaptability everyday high-demanding operations, such as those in Public Protection Disaster Relief. The ITU considers LTE-Advanced systems mission critical PPDR able to address needs MC intelligence, providing support voice, data video services an IMT radio interface. In this paper, we introduce 5G-EPICENTRE, innovation action funded by EC under...
Stress and anxiety are psychophysiological responses commonly experienced by patients during the perioperative process that can increase presurgical postsurgical complications to a comprehensive positive recovery. Preventing intervening in stress help achieve health well-being outcomes. Similarly, provision of education about surgery be crucial component is inversely correlated with preoperative levels. However, few receive relief support before surgery, resource constraints make...
Low latency and high bandwidth heralded with 5G networks will allow transmission of large amounts Mission-Critical data over a short time period. hence unlocks several capabilities for novel Public Protection Disaster Relief (PPDR) applications, developed to support first responders in making faster more accurate decisions during times crisis. As various research initiatives are giving shape the Network Application ecosystem as an interaction layer between vertical applications network...
The future of tele-conferencing is towards multi-party 3D Tele-Immersion (TI) and TI environments that can support realistic inter-personal communications virtual interaction among participants. In this paper, we address two important issues, pertinent to environments. paper focuses on techniques for the real-time, reconstruction moving humans from multiple Kinect devices. off-line generation real-life scenes visual data, captured by non-professional users also addressed. Experimental...
