OPENCV \ library - 0 views

  •  
    OpenCV is an open source computer vision library originally developed by Intel. It is free for commercial and research use under a BSD license. The library is cross-platform, and runs on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux. It focuses mainly towards real-time image processing, as such, if it finds Intel's Integrated Performance Primitives on the system, it will use these commercial optimized routines to accelerate itself. This implementation is not a complete port of OpenCV. Currently, this library supports : * real-time capture * video file import * basic image treatment (brightness, contrast, threshold, …) * object detection (face, body, …) * blob detection Future versions will include more advanced functions such as motion analysis, object and color tracking, multiple OpenCV object instances … For more information about OpenCV visit the Open Source Computer Vision Library Intel webpage, the OpenCV Library Wiki, and the OpenCV Reference Manual (pdf).

    What is WebcamStudio? Your own TV studio in your computer for broadcasting thru a virtual webcam. Mix multiple video source as webcams, movies, images, your desktop and log in your prefered video streaming site like Stikam or BlogTV and start your own show or video blog with: - Cool Special Effects - Text overlay - Video Source transition/rotation/movement... - Animations and Faces! - A webcam at your own image See the features! Why for GNU/Linux? Because there are no solution for Linux and Windows users already have acces to this kind of software. And mostly because I use a lot of Linux technologies that are not available under Microsoft Windows. (Sorry guys!) Based on... * Gstreamer libraries and plugins * gstreamer-java libraries * Java 6 (from Sun)

  •  
    UCSF Chimera is a highly extensible program for interactive visualization and analysis of molecular structures and related data, including density maps, supramolecular assemblies, sequence alignments, docking results, trajectories, and conformational ensembles. High-quality images and animations can be generated. Chimera includes complete documentation and several tutorials, and can be downloaded free of charge for academic, government, non-profit, and personal use. Chimera is developed by the Resource for Biocomputing, Visualization, and Informatics and funded by the NIH National Center for Research Resources (grant P41-RR01081).

Edge of Space Found | LiveScience - 0 views

  • boundary between Earth's atmosphere and outer space
  • instrument developed by scientists at the University of Calgary
  • 73 miles (118 kilometers) above Earth's surface
  • ...21 more annotations...
  • astronauts can say they've been to space after only passing the 50-mile (80-kilometer) mark
  • space industry is also a somewhat arbitrary 62 miles (100 kilometers)
  • United States, however, has never officially adopted a set boundary standard
  • overflight rights of satellites and other orbiting bodies
  • NASA's mission control uses 76 miles (122 kilometers) as their re-entry altitude
  • shuttle switches from steering with thrusters to maneuvering with air surfaces
  • 13 million miles (21 million kilometers)
  • the boundary where Earth's gravity is no longer dominant
  • Supra-Thermal Ion Imager
  • tracking the relatively gentle winds of Earth's atmosphere and the more violent flows of charged particles in space
  • difficult to make measurements in this region, which is too high for balloons and too low for satellites
  • second time that direct measurements of charged particle flows have been made in this region
  • first time all the ingredients – such as the upper atmospheric winds – have been included
  • David Knudsen of the University of Calgary
  • carried by the JOULE-II rocket on Jan. 19, 2007
  • an altitude of about 124 miles (200 kilometers) above sea level and collected data for the five minutes it was moving through the "edge of space."
  • Journal of Geophysical Research on April 7
  • space weather and its impacts on Earth
  • calculate energy flows into the Earth's atmosphere that ultimately may be able to help us understand the interaction between space and our environment
  • link between sunspots and the warming and cooling of the Earth's climate
  • how space weather impacts satellites, communications, navigation, and power systems
