This paper discusses the run-time results from a walkthrough of an architectural scene on a 350Mhz Pentium II. The graphics code is based on OpenGL and accelerated via an nVidia GeForce256 processor. The scene contains 439 808 polygons (quads) and 868 095 vertices. It is hierarchically subdivided into 5 504 objects (leaves of the bounding box hierarchy) and requires about 142MB on Windows 2000....

High-efficiency multijunction laser power converters are demonstrated for low temperature applications with an optical input at 808 nm. The photovoltaic converting III-V semiconductor devices designed GaAs absorbing layers, here 5 thin subcells (PT5), connected by transparent tunnel junctions. Unprecedented conversion efficiencies of up to 74.7% measured temperatures around 150 K. At 77 K, a re...

Background: Surgical treatments for snoring and sleep-related symptoms are invasive, may have complications, inconstant success rates, a significant relapse rate. Methods: We evaluated the effectiveness of non-surgical, non-invasive outpatient 808 nm diode laser treatment. Forty-five patients with sleep disorders were treated an Elexxion-Claros® 50W Diode Laser 808-nm using specific SNORE3 appl...
