By composing pipelines users can easily specify the information flows from selected sensors via optional filters for processing the sensor data to actuators changing the system behaviour according to the users' wishes. Users can compose pipelines for both home and work environments. An integrated sharing mechanism allows them to share their own compositions, and to reuse and build upon others' compositions. Real-time visualisations help them understand how the information flows through their pipelines.

The degree of defocus correlates to the scale of the kernel. Convolving an image with the inverse aperture kernel will digitally sharpen the image and consequently compensate optical defocus. This is referred to as deconvolution or inverse filtering. In frequency domain, the reciprocal of the filter kernel is its inverse, and deconvolution reduces to a division. Low magnitudes in the Fourier transform of the aperture image, however, lead to intensity values in spatial domain that exceed the displayable range. Therefore, the corresponding frequencies are not considered, which then results in visible ringing artifacts in the final projection. This is the main limitation of previous approaches, since in frequency domain the Gaussian PSF of spherical apertures does contain a large fraction of low Fourier magnitudes. Applying only small kernel scales will reduce the number of low Fourier magnitudes (and consequently the ringing artifacts) -- but will also lead only to minor focus improvements. To overcome this problem, we apply a coded aperture whose Fourier transform has less low magnitudes initially. Consequently, more frequencies are retained and more image details are reconstructed.}, subject = {Association for Computing Machinery / Special Interest Group on Graphics}, language = {en} } @techreport{GrundhoeferBimber2008, author = {Grundh{\"o}fer, Anselm and Bimber, Oliver}, title = {Dynamic Bluescreens}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.1233}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20080226-13016}, year = {2008}, abstract = {Blue screens and chroma keying technology are essential for digital video composition.

Although this technology is well established, it does not offer a great deal of flexibility. For shootings at non-studio sets, physical blue screens might have to be installed, or parts have to be recorded in a studio separately. We present a simple and flexible way of projecting corrected keying colors onto arbitrary diffuse surfaces using synchronized projectors and radiometric compensation. Thereby, the reflectance of the underlying real surface is neutralized. A temporal multiplexing between projection and flash illumination allows capturing the fully lit scene, while still being able to key the foreground objects. In addition, we embed spatial codes into the projected key image to enable the tracking of the camera.

Very few approaches exist for testing the salt frost scaling resistance of concretes, which are subjected only to medium levels of saturation, as such concrete elements typically don't show notable scaling damage. However, the increasing use of low carbon cements with high clinker substitution rates might affect the salt frost scaling resistance of such concrete elements to some extent. To ensure adequate durability of such concretes it is thus desirable to determine their performance in an actual test procedure instead of relying on past experience.
