Abstract The Scanning Habitable Environments with Raman and Luminescence for Organics Chemicals (SHERLOC) is a robotic arm-mounted instrument on NASA’s Perseverance rover. SHERLOC has two primary boresights. Spectroscopy boresight generates spatially resolved chemical maps using fluorescence spectroscopy coupled to microscopic images (10.1 μm/pixel). second Wide Angle Topographic Sensor Operations eNgineering (WATSON); copy of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) that...

Pictures can be literal or metaphoric. Metaphoric pictures involve intended violations of standard modes depiction that are universally recognizable. The types metaphoric correspond to major groups verbal metaphors, with the addition a class pictorial runes. Often correspondence between and metaphors depends on individual features objects such physical parameters as change scale. A more sophisticated analysis is required for some involving juxtapositions well-known indirect reference.

Abstract Metaphors and similes relate a topic (e.g., "crime") vehicle ("disease"). As sentences, metaphors "crime is disease") have the same form as literal claims about category like of comparison. However, traditional argument these differences between are superficial, 2 assert relation vehicle. We test this using "reversibility" "crime-disease" vs. "disease-crime"). Experiment 1 found reversing topic-vehicle pairs lowered comprehensibility more than (indeed were often judged...

The Songe of Papua New Guinea have little or no indigenous pictorial art. Nevertheless, subjects both sexes varying ages and degrees Western contact were able to identify a wide range outline drawings depicting objects, animals, human forms. ‘Kinetic’ scenes portraying colour texture discontinuities presented some difficulty for the Songe, especially those over forty years old. Informants in general made significantly more errors than under forty. It was noted that this has been found...

Metaphors are more than figures of speech, because they influence concepts as well modes expression. also come in types, related to specific topics, such warlike metaphors used describe arguments. It is sometimes contended that the root for these types implicit. However, there little reason suppose influential implicit govern how people think without their knowing it. There logical difficulties facing attempts assert powerful metaphors. Also, many groups everyday language indicate words have...

Numerous studies have demonstrated that Huntington's disease mutation-carriers deficient explicit recognition of isolated facial expressions. There are no studies, however, which investigated the expressions embedded within an emotional body and scene context. Real life typically in contexts may dramatically change emotion recognized face. Moreover, a recent study showed magnitude contextual bias is modulated by similarity between actual expression presented face would fit context, e.g....

Theory of tactile pictures argues that untrained blind subjects can recognize raised, outline pictures. It contends the person's knowledge shapes common objects is like sighted, and pictorial abilities use same principles as sighted person's. To test this theory, children (aged 8-13) blindfolded age-matched were asked to identify raised-line drawings objects. Their performances correlated. In addition, identified more than exploring actively, but number who given passive, guided exploration....

Gaia, a totally blind girl, was asked to make raised-line drawings. Gaia's vision at best peripheral. She draws out of interest, and has drawn since preschool with encouragement from her mother. draw objects scenes involving depth vantage point, eg table below, two cars (one behind the other), parallel rows apples (receding her, on top). Gaia represented space in drawings using T-junctions for overlap, height picture plane, projection, inverse projection. That is, uses features systems...
