rgl-package

3D visualization device system

Description 3D real-time rendering system. Details RGL is a 3D real-time rendering system for R. Multiple windows are managed at a time. Windows may be divided into “subscenes”, where one has the current focus that receives instructions from the R command-line. The device design is oriented towards the R device metaphor. If you send scene management instructions, and there’s no device open, it will be opened automatically. Opened devices automatically get the current device focus. The focus may be changed by using rgl.set() or useSubscene3d(). rgl provides medium to high level functions for 3D interactive graphics, including functions modelled on base graphics (plot3d(), etc.) as well as functions for constructing geometric objects (cube3d(), etc.). Output may be on screen using OpenGL, or to various standard 3D file formats including WebGL, PLY, OBJ, STL as well as 2D image formats, including PNG, Postscript, SVG, PGF. The open3d() function attempts to open a new RGL window, using default settings specified by the user. rgl also includes a lower level interface which is described in the rgl.open help topic. We recommend that you avoid mixing rgl.* and *3d calls. See the first example below to display the ChangeLog.

4 See Also

abclines3d

r3d for a description of the *3d interface; par3d for a description of scene properties and the rendering pipeline. Examples file.show(system.file("NEWS", package="rgl")) example(surface3d) example(plot3d)

.check3d

Check for an open rgl window.

Description Mostly for internal use, this function returns the current device number if one exists, or opens a new device and returns that. Usage .check3d() Value The device number of an rgl device. Author(s) Duncan Murdoch See Also open3d

abclines3d

Lines intersecting the bounding box

Description This adds mathematical lines to a scene. Their intersection with the current bounding box will be drawn. Usage rgl.abclines(x, y = NULL, z = NULL, a, b = NULL, c = NULL, ...) abclines3d(x, y = NULL, z = NULL, a, b = NULL, c = NULL, ...)

addNormals Arguments x,y,z a,b,c ... Details Coordinates of points through which each line passes. Coordinates of the direction vectors for the lines. Material properties.

5

These functions draw the segment of a line that intersects the current bounding box of the scene using the parametrization (x, y, z) + (a, b, c) ∗ s where s is a real number. Any reasonable way of defining the coordinates x,y,z and a,b,c is acceptable. See the function xyz.coords for details. Value A shape ID of the object is returned invisibly. See Also planes3d, rgl.planes for mathematical planes. segments3d draws sections of lines that do not adapt to the bounding box. Examples plot3d(rnorm(100), rnorm(100), rnorm(100)) abclines3d(0,0,0, a=diag(3), col="gray")

addNormals

Add normal vectors to objects so they render more smoothly.

Description This generic function adds normals at each of the vertices of a polyhedron by averaging the normals of each incident face. This has the effect of making the surface of the object appear smooth rather than faceted when rendered. Usage addNormals(x, ...) Arguments x ... Details Currently methods are supplied for "mesh3d" and "shapelist3d" classes. An object to which to add normals. Additional parameters which will be passed to the methods. Currently unused.

6 Value A new object of the same class as x, with normals added. Author(s) Duncan Murdoch Examples open3d() y

Evolution of Mobile Banking

...and improve customer experience. In this continuous journey, the banking industry has seen several technology trends being adopted and several innovations delivered. Innovations in banking delivery channels dates back to the introduction of ATMs as a self-service delivery channel. The ATMs heralded a new era of banking as the concept of self-service was introduced for the first time. ATMs also marked the entry of anytime banking as customers could now access money from their bank accounts at a time of their convenience. The wave of selfservice continued and the advent of Internet banking introduced the concept of anywhere banking as customers could now access their bank accounts from the comforts of their home or office. The new wave of technology-led delivery channels had caught up with the traditional branch banking and the customer experience from these new delivery channels had set new standards. However, banks noticed a trend customers mainly visiting ATMs for simple balance inquiry of mini statement transactions. This trend began to add to the cost pressures on the ATM channel. Internet banking was facing its own battle as security issues loomed large and customers restricted usage of Internet banking to their home and office computers. The time was ripe for a delivery channel which enabled banks to solve the issues plaguing the existing technology channels. This came in the form of mobile banking as banks began to tap into the potential of offering...

System Adoption

...individuals perform their jobs, but also ensure the future growth of these systems. This paper will describe three of these systems; transaction processing systems, office information systems, and management information systems. Transaction processing systems, more commonly referred to as TPS, are information systems that capture and process data that has been generated during an organization’s day-to-day transactions. A transaction is a business activity such as a deposit, payment and order. Individuals in the clerical department perform activities associated with TPS, including recording business activity such as an employee’s timecard, confirming the action such as generating employee paychecks, and maintaining data, which involves adding new data, changing existing data, or removing unwanted data. The factors that lead to the adoption of this system are batch processing and OLTP, or online transaction processing. Batch processing is transaction data that has been collected over a period of time and all transactions are processed later as a group, such as calculating paychecks. With OLTP, computers process transactions as they are entered (Shelly, 1999). The second information system is OIS, or office information system. OIS is an information system that uses hardware, software and networks to enhance the work flow and to also facilitate the communication amongst employees of an organization. Tasks are performed electronically using computers and other electronic devices, such as...

Management Information System

...Abstract: Information Technology (IT) Vs. Management Information System (MIS)-in the context of Corporate Management: Information Technology The central aim of IT management is to generate value through the use of technology. To achieve this, business strategies and technology must be aligned. IT Management is different from management information systems. The latter refers to management methods tied to the automation or support of human decision making. IT Management refers to IT related management activities in organizations. MIS is focused mainly on the business aspect, with strong input into the technology phase of the business/organization. A primary focus of IT management is the value creation made possible by technology. This requires the alignment of technology and business strategies. While the value creation for an organization involves a network of relationships between internal and external environments, technology plays an important role in improving the overall value chain of an organization. However, this increase requires business and technology management to work as a creative, synergistic, and collaborative team instead of a purely mechanistic span of control. Historically, one set of resources was dedicated to one particular computing technology, business application or line of business, and managed in a storage-like fashion. These resources supported a single set of requirements and processes, and couldn’t easily be optimized or reconfigured to support...
