Problematics are obstacles or problems that must be solved; in other words, the problem is gap between reality and something expected to work well achieve maximum results. In everyday life, a person never separated from various problems, one of which experienced while attending lectures. Problems arise one's own negligence, resulting self-defeating consequences. This basis for creation painting...

We describe a painting machine and associated algorithms. Our modified industrial robot works with visual feedback and applies acrylic paint from a repository to a canvas until the created painting resembles a given input image or scene. The color differences between canvas and input are used to direct the application of new strokes. We present two optimization-based algorithms that place such ...

It is a common practice to prepare tint ladders of each colorant consisting of five or more concentrations in order to develop a colorant database for instrumental-based color matching, characterization of optical properties of a coloration system, and pigment mapping. For two-constant Kubelka-Munk theory, the unit absorption and scattering coefficients for each colorant can be solved by the li...

This work aimed to evaluate the effect of acid mist on microbial communities developed mortar with same composition from wall National Museum in Rio de Janeiro. Five autochthonous groups were inoculated coated acrylic paint and uncoated surfaces submitted or water for 100 days. A heterogeneous biofilm was well coupons under mist. Molecular analysis revealed that bacterial structured according i...

A common method for characterizing a colored pigment is making a ramp contain several mixtures of the colored and white pigments. Then, by applying the least squares technique using all the samples, absorption and scattering coefficients can be calculated. Making several samples is time consuming. In this approach, the minimum number of samples for characterizing the pigments using single-and t...

In recent year, multi-layered semiconductor package is one of the most important technologies to enhance its performance. To bond between each layer of multi-chip package, die-bonding film is known as an effective material. We had developed a novel low-modulus die-bonding adhesive film. Properties of the films are widely changed by the ratio of epoxy resin and acrylic polymer contents. To satis...

We report on a robotic system that can physically produce paintings with a wide range of artistic media such as acrylic paint on canvas. The system is composed of an articulated painting arm and a machine-learning algorithm aimed at determining a series of brushstrokes that will transfer a given electronic image onto canvas. An artist controlling the system is able to influence the resulting ar...

Metaphors are an undeniable part of many forms of art and they hint at the underlying conceptualisation that takes place in the silent conversation between an art piece and its perceiver. Abstract art, in particular, requires the viewer not only to analyse the colour palette and the shapes of the strokes but to subconsciously react to the underlying structures that often define the metaphors. A...
