...the complex real world interactions between a robot, an environment, and a human. The humanoid robotics motivates social interactions such as gesture communication or co-operative tasks in the same context as the physical dynamics. This is essential for three-term interaction, which aims at fusing physical and social interaction at fundamental levels. People naturally express themselves through facial gestures and expressions. Our goal is to build a facial gesture human-computer interface fro use in robot applications. This system does not require special illumination or facial make-up. By using multiple Kalman filters we accurately predict and robustly track facial features. Since we reliably track the face in real-time we are also able to recognize motion gestures of the face. Our system can recognize a large set of gestures (13) ranging from “yes”, ”no” and “may be” to detecting winks, blinks and sleeping. Chapter 1 ROLE OF HUMANOIDS 1. INTRODUCTION.: The field of humanoids robotics, widely recognized as the current challenge for robotics research, is attracting the interest of many research groups worldwide. Important efforts have been devoted to the objective of developing humanoids and impressive results have been produced, from the technological point of view, especially for the problem of biped walking. In Japan, important humanoid projects, started in the last decade, have been carried on by the Waseda University and by Honda...

...different objects in the room to symbolise Offred’s situation. While exploring her room, the narrator notices that “on the white ceiling… [there is] a blank space, plastered over, like the place in a face where the eye has been taken out.” (9) She also finds that “[the window] only opens partly” (9). The author uses the simile which compares the ceiling to a face without eyes, a result of the chandelier having been violently removed, to mirror how Offred is forced to be “blind” to the world. The government forces handmaids to wear wings around their face to prevent them from seeing and being seen. Offred and other handmaids thus cannot communicate and familiarise themselves with the world. They are powerless because they have no knowledge of the world; they cannot defend themselves against an unknown entity. The narrator uses this simile to imply that she is forced into being oblivious to her surroundings. Similarly, the author uses the window in Offred’s room as a symbol for her contact with the world, because the window is the only opening in her room to the outside environment. By saying that the window opens only partly, the author is suggesting that Offred has very limited contact with the world. Later on the narrator states that “[I would] like to be able to open the window as wide as it could go” (72). This reflects Offred’s desire to communicate with the world, an...

...In this clip, the cinematographer Conrad Hall discusses a shot from In Cold Blood where the lighting took an particularly expressive function. This shot is a particularly fine example of the expressive power of lighting. This clip is taken from the documentary Visions of Light. Herbert Clutter inspects his ranch on the morning of November 14, 1959. That same morning, on the other side of Kansas, Perry Smith meets up with Dick Hickock. While the Clutters go about their daily business, running errands and baking cherry pies, Hickock and Smith are tuning their car. After a long drive, they pull up to the Clutter home with a shotgun and knife in hand. That morning, the bodies are discovered by Susan Kidwell and another of Nancy's friends. Initially, the police are baffled. Bobby Rupp is a suspect until he passes a lie detector test. Alvin Dewey, the KBI agent in charge of the investigation, thinks that the killer must be someone close to the family. Rumor sets the small town of Holcomb on fire. Hartman's Cafe is the center of numerous theories. Meanwhile, Perry and Dick have returned to Dick's hometown of Olathe. Dick passes some hot checks, and the two flee to Mexico. Perry has always dreamed of finding sunken treasure in Mexico. While the investigation in Kansas begins to methodically follow up dead end leads, Perry and Dick spend some time entertaining a rich German tourist before they run out of money in Mexico City. While packing to return to the states, Perry goes through...

...remember, have some strange connections to each other. Some parts in the dream don’t make sense but it is still part of the dream. One example of a dream that reminds me of the painter or his works would be the one about how my family was in town for a holiday and there were cows in our backyard that kept making horse sounds every time someone said cow. Then outside the window as we were eating there were two birds looking in as if it was cold outside and they needed a warm place to sleep. Toward the end of my dream (or before I woke up) my mom went to the window to feed the birds some rice and bread. But I was never able to make out any of the faces of the people in the dream which I found to be extremely weird. With other dreams I was able to make out faces and remember the faces for a later dream. To execute the painting about my dream I would first paint a window in the middle of painting in the background and then paint the family, without faces around a table with all the fixings for a feast. Then off to the left of the painting, I would paint pictures of the cows in the backyard and the by the window paint the 2 birds inquiring about the food inside the home. The cows would not able to communicate the horse noises, but I would be able to paint the cows and make the spots on the cows spell out horse or something subtle to let the audience know that the cow and horse would be intertwined. The birds would be shivering in the middle of hot summer day. The dream painting...

...If a lot of artificial lights are being used within the office it can affect the thermal comfort of the staff within the building. The lights will produce large amounts of heat energy which can cause an uncomfortable temperature within the building. Due to there being such few windows less heat will be lost from the building which can be beneficial during cold weather; however it can be a major disadvantage during warm weather because it will create discomfort for staff because they will feel too warm. An office building with large amounts of windows like the one in the image below will obviously receive more daylight than a building with fewer windows. Due to the office building having a large amount of windows, more daylight will be allowed to enter the building. This means that the amount of daylight/sunlight outside the building will affect the heat inside the building. On sunny, warm days due to more sunlight being able to pass into the building, less money will have to be spent on electricity because artificial lights will not have to be used....

...fallen and we were surrounded. I stared out the window out onto the fields of corpses; they stared back up at me. They were swarming and pushing forward, pressing from all sides against the tiny cottage we were sheltering in. Our time for running had come to an end. A cry from downstairs snapped me out of my stupor. I rushed downwards, gripping my shotgun with sweaty palms. The noise down here was horrendous; the dead groaned and screamed and smashed endlessly against our barricades. They would not hold out much longer. Tania turned to me with a panicked look, “How does it look out there?” She asked desperately. She looked closely at my expression and turned back to the barricades, her answer didn’t need words. There was a loud crack as the one of the window barricades smashed and fell uselessly onto the floor. Through the hole a man’s face appeared and looked at us with a white glazed eye, his cheek was torn and hung loosely off his face. I dropped the shotgun and rushed to take a crowbar off the kitchen table. I reached the window just as the intruder attempted to climb through the gap and swung the crowbar at his head. There was a sickening crunch and his body sank to the floor. Behind me I heard other windows cracking open. They swarmed into the house. I hit another zombie as he tried to get through the gap and spun around to grab the shotgun. There was an incredibly loud bang as Tania’s gun went off, demolishing the face of a zombie breaking through. Gripping my shotgun...

...Bus 306 February 7, 2014 Marketing Project Summary According to statistics, 80% of the world’s population has a mobile phone; it is around $5 billion in the world in which only $1.08 billion are smartphones. Also, 89% of smartphone users play with their smartphones throughout the day. In average, people spend an hour a day looking and typing on their smartphone. People spend a lot of time on their smartphones using apps that make their daily activities easier and more fun. Smartphones users can become addicted to all the fun, and interesting features of the product. The problem we are addressing is the amount of time people spend looking at their portable electronic devices and the effect it has on their vision. People enjoy using their smartphones, but they are ruining their eyes by using this product (Smartphone users, n.d.) There are many ways to reduce the risks of using smartphones in this type of matter. The first solution is wearing glasses while using a smartphone. The second solution could be to address companies that produce smartphones to install eye protector glasses in smartphones. The final solution is to install filters within smartphone cases that already have protective eye glass or in progress of making a product similar to this. All these solutions bring out positive effects for smartphone users and companies that produce and sell them. We selected to create a screen protector with a filter because of the ease of implementations, the minimal costs involved...

...several years afterwards we all lived in the town though he preferred living in the country. We had as a next door neighbour a very rich man, whose sons and daughters seldom came out of the house. While we boys and girls played and sang in the sun, his children stayed inside and kept the windows closed. His house was so tall that his children could look in the window of our house and watched us played, or slept, or ate, when there was any food in the house to eat. Now, this rich man’s servants were always frying and cooking something good, and the aroma of the food was wafted down to us form the windows of the big house. We hung about and took all the wonderful smells of the food into our beings. Sometimes, in the morning, our whole family stood outside the windows of the rich man’s house and listened to the musical sizzling of thick strips of bacon or ham. I can remember one afternoon when our neighbour’s servants roasted three chickens. The chickens were young and tender and the fat that dripped into the burning coals gave off an enchanting odour. We watched the servants turn the beautiful birds and inhaled the heavenly spirit that drifted out to us. Some days the rich man appeared at a window and glowered down at us. He looked at us one by one, as though he were condemning us. We were all healthy because we went out in the sun and bathed in the cool water of the river that flowed from the mountains into the sea. Sometimes we wrestled with one another in the house before we...

...Mexico It’s Friday, I've got no job, I've got no class and I’m headed down to Mexico! I am a freshman attending the University of Arizona in Tucson and the second semester is coming to a close in a couple short weeks. I must have done something good because I had recently been granted permission from my parents to bring my pickup truck to campus to use for the remainder of the year. My parents had previously been against me driving anything that wasn't powered by my own “Chevro-legs". I am driving South on the SR-85 in my blue 1995 regular cab Chevrolet with my roommate Chris and good friend Sean sitting beside me on the cloth bench-style seat. We’re loaded with a cooler full of snacks, beer and water, a sleeping bag per person, and around $300 between us. We reach Why Arizona and I pull into a Mobile gas station to fill up on American gas for the weekend; I think we bought Mexican insurance here too, but not worth describing. I remember the gas prices fairly reasonable still in the summer of the 2003; so gas ran me probably thirty five bucks for my eighteen gallon fuel tank. Mexican insurance was twenty dollars a day and we paid for coverage for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Fully loaded and ready to get rolling with this entirely spontaneous vacation that was only happening because the previous night I learned that my seventeen year old brother was going to be in Rocky Point for his first time that weekend. Upon hearing this news, I gathered up Sean and Chris...
