Laser-Induced Forward Transfer of Functional Microdevices

Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) technique is an emerging micro additive manufacturing (AM) technique that has been widely used to print a variety of materials. Distinguished from other nozzle-based AM techniques, LIFT operates without the existence o ...

From Trees to Barcodes and Back Again: A Combinatorial, Probabilistic and Geometric Study of a Topological Inverse Problem

Adélie Eliane Garin

In this thesis, we investigate the inverse problem of trees and barcodes from a combinatorial, geometric, probabilistic and statistical point of view. Computing the persistent homology of a merge tree yields a barcode B. Reconstructing a tree from B invol ...

Three-Dimensional Cubic Barcodes

Martin Vetterli, Adam James Scholefield, Golnooshsadat Elhami

We consider three-dimensional cubic barcodes, consisting of smaller cubes, each built from one of two possible materials and carry one bit of information. To retrieve the information stored in the barcode, we measure a 2-D projection of the barcode using a ...

From Trees to Barcodes and Back Again: Theoretical and Statistical Perspectives

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Lida Kanari, Adélie Eliane Garin

Methods of topological data analysis have been successfully applied in a wide range of fields to provide useful summaries of the structure of complex data sets in terms of topological descriptors, such as persistence diagrams. While there are many powerful ...

Implementation of an image recognition algorithm on the DM6446 DaVinci Processor

Pierre-André Farine, Sara Grassi Pauletti, Pradyumna Ayyalasomayajula

We are developing an Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC) portable device called PictoBar which is used in speech rehabilitation therapy. PictoBar recognizes barcodes and images, such as pictograms and pictures. Then it plays a sound message as ...

Method and apparatus for fast encoding of data symbols according to half-weight codes

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi

Efficient methods for encoding and decoding Half-Weight codes are disclosed and similar high density codes are disclosed. The efficient methods require at most 3(k-1)+h/2+1 XORs of symbols to calculate h Half-Weight symbols from k source symbols, where h i ...

Method for fabricating micromirror for barcode reader, involves forming holes having diameter less than width of arms on both side of micromirror and wafer and on edges of region separating wafer and micromirror by etching arms

Philippe Renaud, Faouzi Khechana, Nicolas Abelé

A method for fabricating a micromirror in a wafer, including the steps of: depositing and etching layers forming two arms; etching the wafer such that in the back face only a thin portion of the wafer remains in the region of formation of the micromirror a ...

Augmented reality for non-rigid surfaces

Julien Pilet

Augmented Reality (AR) is the process of integrating virtual elements in reality, often by mixing computer graphics into a live video stream of a real scene. It requires registration of the target object with respect to the cameras. To this end, some appro ...

Smart camera with embedded co-processor: a postal sorting application

Marco Mattavelli, Romuald Mosqueron, Julien Dubois

This work describes an image acquisition and processing system based on a new co-processor architecture designed for CMOS sensor imaging. The platform permits to configure a wide variety of acquisition modes (random region acquisition, variable image size, ...
