Sperm’s sensitive steering machinery

Highly sensitive beam steering with plasmonic antenna

In this work, we design and study a highly sensitive beam steering device that integrates a spiral plasmonic antenna with a subwavelength metallic waveguide. The short effective wavelength of the surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) mode supported by the metallic waveguide is exploited to dramatically miniaturize the device and improve the sensitivity of the beam steering. Through introducing a ti...

PlaceAvoider: Steering First-Person Cameras away from Sensitive Spaces

Cameras are now commonplace in our social and computing landscapes and embedded into consumer devices like smartphones and tablets. A new generation of wearable devices (such as Google Glass) will soon make ‘first-person’ cameras nearly ubiquitous, capturing vast amounts of imagery without deliberate human action. ‘Lifelogging’ devices and applications will record and share images from people’s...

ZF Active Steering in the Steering Column

Experiments on Mutations Induced by Neutrons in Drosophila Melanogaster Sperms.

WO somewhat puzzling phenomena have been reported in the literature T on neutron-induced lethals in Drosophila. NAGAI and LOCHER (1938), in the first work on this subject, kept the offspring of different neutron-treated males separate during the tests for sex-linked lethals and reported that the lethals were not distributed a t random among the offspring of different males. Two or more lethals ...

Reportrapport Steering Smog Prediction Steering Smog Prediction

The use of computational steering for smog prediction is described. This application is representative for many underlying issues found in steering high performance applications: high computing times, large data sets, and many di erent input parameters. After a short description of the smog prediction model, its visualization and steering are described. The amount of computation needed to solve...
