چکیده

This paper describes a small cylindrical display for an anthropomorphic agent that communicates with users in a threedimentional (3D) environment. Conventional displays for anthropomorphic agents are designed for a single user or a fixed viewing direction. We suggest a new small cylindrical display that is visible from the outside in any direction. Image data for the projector is calculated by the imagewarping method. Light emitted from the image projector is reflected by a spherical mirror and projected on the inside of the rear of the cylindrical screen. This cylindrical display enables 3D agent actions, such as head turning. We evaluated our display by measuring pixel brightness in different situations. We demonstrate an application of anthropomorphic agents and a telecommunications system using omnidirectional images.

A Monte Carlo based method to estimate radiation dose from multidetector CT (MDCT): cylindrical and anthropomorphic phantoms.

The purpose of this work was to extend the verification of Monte Carlo based methods for estimating radiation dose in computed tomography (CT) exams beyond a single CT scanner to a multidetector CT (MDCT) scanner, and from cylindrical CTDI phantom measurements to both cylindrical and physical anthropomorphic phantoms. Both cylindrical and physical anthropomorphic phantoms were scanned on an MDC...

Identification of a Novel Tumor-Binding Peptide for Lung Cancer Through in-vitro Panning

Tumor-targeted therapies are playing growing roles in cancer research. The exploitation of these powerful therapeutic modalities largely depends on the discovery of tumor-targeting ligands. Phage display has proven a promising high throughput screening tool for the identification of novel specific peptides with high binding affinity to cancer cells. In the present study, we describe the use of ...

Experimental validation of a kV source model and dose computation method for CBCT imaging in an anthropomorphic phantom

We present an experimental validation of a kilovoltage (kV) X-ray source characterization model in an anthropomorphic phantom to estimate patient-specific absorbed dose from kV cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging procedures and compare these doses to nominal weighted CT-dose index (CTDIw) dose estimates. We simulated the default Varian on-board imager 1.4 (OBI) default CBCT imaging pro...

Tip-Grasp Experiences with Three-Finger Anthropomorphic LARM Hand

This paper presents tip-grasp experiences with a robotic hand with three 1 dof anthropomorphic fingers of human sizes. The last prototype of LARM Hand built at LARM in Cassino is illustrated as a low-cost easy-operation design. Cylindrical-grasp experiences have been previously carried out in order to compare the force measure results with the force results that are measured during the tip-gras...
