The most commonly used method for formally assessing grapheme-colour synaesthesia (i.e., experiencing colours in response to letter and/or number stimuli) involves selecting colours from a large colour palette on several occasions and measuring consistency of the colours selected. However, the ability to diagnose synaesthesia using this method depends on several factors that have not been direc...

Picker to parts order picking (OP) systems are one of the most labour-intensive warehouse operations, accounting for 55% expenses in e-commerce industry. For this reason, industry has invested fully automated and robotised warehouses. However, these solutions very expensive. Furthermore, with advent Industry 5.0 a human-centric focus, OP system's automation should be designed implemented ways i...

Analysis of human spatial cognition when navigating within physical or virtual environments can be bolstered by collecting eye movements with the help of an eye tracker. In physical reality, a head-mounted tracker can be worn during navigation with recorded gaze data often mapped to the screen coordinates of a forward-facing camera. In virtual reality, gaze data can be recorded with a so-called...

Let X be a completely regular space and let A(X) be a ring of continuous real-valued functions onX which is closed under local bounded inversion. We show that the structure space of A(X) is homeomorphic to a quotient of the Stone–Čech compactification of X. We use this result to show that any realcompactification of X is homeomorphic to a subspace of the structure space of some ring of continuo...
