This paper describes a conceptual intelligent design system, which chiefly consists of a searching mechanism and a classifier. The searching mechanism is based on genetic algorithm (GA) to search for various evolved types of clothing combinations, and the classifier is constructed through learning and knowledge acquisition by an artificial neural network (ANN) to play a roll of evaluation mecha...

Augmented reality is a user interface paradigm, which mixes virtual and physical information in a single output. Augmenting virtual information on top of physical information at interactive framerates causes a number of issues. These include poor perception of distances, image pollution and attention direction. In order to address these problems, this dissertation explores the usage of informat...

Today's production vehicles are fitted with a multitude of antennas to facilitate communication and enable a moving vehicle to connect with the outside world. Recent years have seen the introduction of new electronic devices to the automotive environment. These devices are usually designed to aid the driver, increase safety, or enhance the driving experience, and many of them rely on wireless c...
