Pop-up retailing objectives and activities: A retrospective commentary

DataMeshTM — scope and objectives: a commentary

A DataMesh can be viewed equally well as a storage server with a lot of local processing power, or as a highly-parallel computer with embedded storage. A physical manifestation might be as a wall-sized array of storage/processor nodes (discs, optical drives, pageaddressable RAM, etc) linked together by a web-like interconnect. Such a thing would live in the basement, and serve the storage needs...

Pop-up book MEMS

We present a design methodology and manufacturing process for the construction of articulated three-dimensional microstructures with features on the micron to centimeter scale. Flexure mechanisms and assembly folds result from the bulk machining and lamination of alternating rigid and compliant layers, similar to rigid-flex printed circuit board construction. Pop-up books and other forms of pap...

Stereoscopic Pop-Up

I present a novel system for the segmentation of images with depth into a mesh-based layered representation. This layered representation can be used for synthesising new views of the scene, and to create effects which would otherwise be non-trivial to implement, such as camera pans and depth of field effects. My contributions are threefold. Firstly, my project builds on existing algorithms, in ...
