Quantitative evaluation of the HTC Vive virtual reality system in controlled movement.
Modern virtual reality systems enable users to be immersed in a virtual world. Validation of the HTC Vive will assure users and developers that games and applications made for the system are accurate representations of the real world. Here, both the translational and rotational capabilities of the …

The actuated Workbench : 2D actuation in tabletop tangible interfaces
… magnetic forces to control the two-dimensional movement of physical objects on flat surfaces. This mechanism is intended for use with existing tabletop Tangible User Interfaces, providing computer-controlled movement of the physical objects on the table, and creating an additional feedback layer …

Magnetomotive dynamics of magnetic particles for optical imaging contrast and elastography
… in biology and medicine. In this thesis, the controlled movement of magnetic particles termed as magnetomotion is exploited for enhancing optical imaging contrast and elastography using optical coherence tomography (OCT). A combination of simulations and experiments were performed to study the …

Particle Manipulation Using Electric Field Gradients in Microdevices
… field. At low frequencies, bacteria demonstrated controlled movement caused by electroosmosis and dielectrophoresis with a net motion caused by a dielectrophoretic force. In the second application, the separation capabilities of different stages of breast cancer cells from the same cell line were …

Development of an apparatus to quantify the volitional muscle performance of rat plantar flexors in vivo
… to perform a voluntary lifting task to generate controlled movement of the plantar flexors. An opening in the front panel of the operant chamber allowed the rat to enter a Plexiglas tube that was mounted vertically to restrict the movement of the rat. A load cell was embedded in a platform at the …

The development of a remotely expandable anastomosis device for use in paediatric cardiothoracic surgery
… steel expansion strip with the slow and controlled movement required for such an application. Each of the designs were silicone coated using custom designed injection moulding techniques ensuring biocompatibility. Power and control systems were designed for each iteration taking into …

Individual differences in the reproduction of temporal intervals
… short time intervals by the method of linear arm movement under conditions of free movement (in which the distance and speed of the linear movement was left to the subject's own preference) and controlled movement (in which the distance, and, indirectly, the speed of linear movement was …

The provision of school buildings in Saudi Arabia with particular reference to Jeddah.
… such a way as to provide crossventilation by the controlled movement of cool air. This is assisted by an original use of the stack-effect in building in a way which reflects traditional architecture, yet provides modern standards of light and thermal control.
