Assessment Of The Impact Of Clothing And Environmental Conditions On Visible Light 3d Scanning, Pann Ajjimaporn, Jeremy Straub, Scott Kerlin Apr 2015

Assessment Of The Impact Of Clothing And Environmental Conditions On Visible Light 3d Scanning, Pann Ajjimaporn, Jeremy Straub, Scott Kerlin

Jeremy Straub

The quality of models produced by visible light 3D scanners is influenced by multiple factors. To max-imize model accuracy and detail levels, the correct combination of lighting texture, subject posture and software usage must be selected. The work described herein has been performed to measure the effect of different lighting and envi-ronmental conditions on human 3D scanning results.


Participatory Assessment Of Water Developments In An Atoll Town, Magnus Moglia, Pascal Perez Nov 2012

Participatory Assessment Of Water Developments In An Atoll Town, Magnus Moglia, Pascal Perez

Professor Pascal Perez

Water development projects often fail, which represents a poor outcome given the limited progress against the Millennium Development Goals in providing people with adequate water and sanitation services. This may not be surprising given that water management has been identified as being in the complex system domain. According to the Cynefin framework, many traditional approaches are not suitable; but it suggests an approach based on the methods of probe, sense and respond. In line with this general framework, a participatory assessment methodology has been used to explore experiences in the atoll town of Tarawa in the Republic of Kiribati. After …
