Violin is one of the most beautiful but also one of the most difficult musical instruments for a beginner. This paper presents an on-going work about a new augmented reality system for training how to play violin. We propose to help the players by virtually guiding the movement of the bow and the correct position of their fingers for pressing the strings. Our system also recognizes the musical ...

Interferometric gravitational wave detectors operate by sensing the differential light travel time between free test masses. Correspondingly, they are sensitive to anything that changes the physical distance between the test masses, including physical motion of the masses themselves. In ground-based detectors the test masses are suspended as pendula, in order that they be approximately “free” a...

Abstract Biography takes the scant facts of a life that are available to scrutiny, like waypoints on journey be mapped, and attempts form coherent narrative from them. That coherence is, at least some degree, contingent upon ideological position author as Michael Benton has noted, “the biographical subject is textual creation much historical recreation.” While fully acknowledging one cannot “re...
