We built a time-resolved confocal fluorescence spectroscopy system equipped with the multichannel time-correlated single-photon-counting technique. The instrument provides a unique approach to study the fluorescence sensing of cell metabolism via analysis of the wavelength- and time-resolved intracellular autofluorescence. The experiments on monolayered cell cultures show that with UV excitatio...

A method for detection and identification of polar gases and gas mixtures based on the technique of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy is presented. This relatively new technology promises to be the first portable far-infrared spectrometer, providing a means for real-time spectroscopic measurements over a broad bandwidth up to several THz. The measured time-domain waveforms can be efficiently p...

Although system identification of complex networks is widely studied, most of the work focuses on modelling the dynamics of the ground truth without exploring the topology because in many applications, the network topology is known as a priori. For instance, in industry since the system is artificial, its topology is fixed and the system dynamics is identified for the purpose of control. Nevert...

Sensing gloves are often used as an input device for virtual 3D games. We propose a new method to control characters such as humans or animals in real-time by using sensing gloves. Based on existing motion data of the body, a new method to map the hand motion of the user to the locomotion of 3D characters in real-time is proposed. The method was applied to control locomotion of characters such ...
