Beyond the Tyranny of the Pixel: Exploring the Physicality of Information Visualization
2008
2008 12th International Conference Information Visualisation
This paper introduces five different degrees of 'data physicality', which differ in the level of abstraction of how data is mapped and perceived by human senses: ambient display, pixel sculptures, object ...
This categorization demonstrates the potential of information visualization as a communication medium in its own right, which proliferates beyond the ubiquitous pixel-based, light-emitting surfaces of ...
The Information Percolator [10] , one of the earliest ambient displays, is based on a similar approach by synchronizing rising air bubbles captured in a row of water tubes to depict icons and vertically ...

Informative art
2000
Proceedings of DARE 2000 on Designing augmented reality environments - DARE '00
Informative art is computer augmented, or amplified, works of art that not only are aesthetical objects but also information displays, in as much as they dynamically reflect information about their environment ...
We do so by discussing its properties and possibilities in relation to work on information visualisation, novel information display strategies, as well as art. ...
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors would like to thank their collaborators at PLAY, especially Lars Erik Holmquist, Patricija Jaksetic, Peter Ljungstrand and Magdalena Siverbo. ...

Cool interaction with calm technologies
2010
ACM International Conference on Interactive Tabletops and Surfaces - ITS '10
Our demo seeks to stretch the boundaries of current ubiquitous computing systems by trying out a new material, which embeds itself to the environment -here, outdoors in a snowy winter. ...
In addition to the function of the interactive installation, where we show that ice as a material can be used for such purposes, we seek to offer an inspirational aspect to the design of ubiquitous computing ...

Stimuli-responsive, mechanically-adaptive polymer nanocomposites
2011
Journal of Materials Chemistry
Upon exposure to physiological conditions (immersion in artificial cerebrospinal fluid, ACSF, at 37°C) all materials displayed a decrease in E′. ...
The mechanical morphing of the new materials can be described in the framework of both the percolation and Halpin-Kardos models for nanocomposite reinforcement, and is the result of changing interactions ...

Using Multimedia Materials in the Teaching of Scientific and Technical Translation
2021
Linguistica Antverpiensia, New Series – Themes in Translation Studies
In this paper, we argue for the inclusion of graphic information as a new focus for A VT, and present the results of a research project aimed at designing teaching materials for audiovisual, scientific ...
To meet these new challenges, translation teachers must place special emphasis on the importance of the non-textual information evolving around multimedia texts and adopt a more dynamic approach towards ...
Discrete text equivalents -when rendered by players or assistive technologies 5 to the screen, as speech, or on a dynamic Braille display -allow users to make use of the multimedia object, even if they ...

Robust Morphological Measures for Large-Scale Structure in the Universe
[article]
1993
arXiv
pre-print
We illustrate the method by applying it to a Poisson process, a 'double-Poisson' process, and to the Abell catalogue of galaxy clusters. ...
The method is numerically robust even for small samples, independent of statistical assumptions, and yields global as well as local morphological information. ...
Acknowledgements: We would like to thank John A. Peacock for providing us the new Abell cluster catalogue, and Jürgen Ehlers for valuable remarks on the manuscript. ...

Nature Communications
A magnetic field-dependent conductive gate is employed in an alternating current electroluminescent display, which is used to produce non-volatile and rewritable magnetic field-dependent display. ...
AbstractDevelopment of a human-interactive display enabling the simultaneous sensing, visualisation, and memorisation of a magnetic field remains a challenge. ...
In a conventional sensor, information detected from the device should be stored in a memory before being visualized through a display. ...
