We built a video see-through head-mounted display with zero eye offset from commercial components and a mount fabricated via rapid prototyping. The orthoscopic HMD’s layout was created and optimized with a software simulator. We describe simulator and HMD design, we show the HMD in use and demonstrate zero parallax.

A correct spatial registration of Optical See-Through HeadMounted Displays (OST-HMD) w.r.t. a user’s eye(s) is an essential problem for any AR application using the such HMDs (Fig. 1). Maintaining the correct registration demands frequent (re)calibrations for the end-users whenever they move the HMD on their head. Thus, a calibration technique should be simple and accurate for the universal, lo...

for button mushrooms packaging, the packaging films with high permeability to oxygen and carbon dioxide are required. permeability of plastic films such as pvc lead to loss of weight (and thus economic value) and textural changes are undesirable for button mushroom. so packaging film of polyolefins (pd 941 and pd 961) can be used. also the new film, hydrophilic materials such as films made from...

We examined properties of the innate immune response against the tumor-specific antigen simian virus 40 (SV40) large tumor antigen (Tag) following experimental pulmonary metastasis in naive mice. Approximately 14 days after mKSA tumor cell challenge, expression of inflammatory mediators such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin-2 (IL-2), and RANTES was upregulated in splenocy...

Poly urea-formaldehyde was synthesized simply and rapidly from urea and formaldehyde by condensation polymerization and studied for the sorption of trace acid blue from aqueous solution. The optimum pH value for sorption of the acid blue was 4. Experimental results showed that the sorption capacity of poly urea-formaldehyde for acid blue was determined. The synthetic polymer can be reused for 5...

This paper presents a novel observation system for immersive soccer match taken by multiple video cameras at a real stadium. The user sees the soccer field model in front of his/her eyes from the viewpoint through head-mounted display, while the images of players and a soccer ball are also rendered onto the display. For geometric registration between the soccer field model in the real world and...

This paper presents initial results from an ongoing work to calibrate optical see-through head-mounted displays (HMDs). We have developed a method to calibrate stereoscopic optical see-through HMDs based on the 3D alignment of a target in the physical world with a virtual object in user’s view. This is an extension of the Single Point Active Alignment Method (SPAAM) [28] developed for monocular...

nanofibrous scaffolds produced by electrospinning have attracted much attention, recently. aligned and random nanofibrous scaffolds of poly (vinyl alcohol) (pva), poly (ε-caprolactone) (pcl) and nanohydroxyapatite  (nha) were fabricated by electrospinning method in this study. the composite nanofibrous scaffolds were subjected to detailed analysis. morphological investigations revealed that the...

various morphologies of silica nanoparticles were synthesized by a microwave-assisted pechini method. silica nanostructures were synthesized via a fast reaction between tetra ethyl ortho silicate and ammonia at presence citric acid and other effective agents in pechini procedure. then for preparation of polymer-matrix nanocomposites, sio2 nanoparticles were added to poly carbonate (pc) and poly...
