Design And Implementation Of An Interactive Animatronic System For Guest Response Analysis, Brian Burns
Design And Implementation Of An Interactive Animatronic System For Guest Response Analysis, Brian Burns
College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations
In theme park based entertainment applications, there is a need for interactive, autonomous animatronic systems to create engaging and compelling experiences for the guests. The animatronic figures must identify the guests and recognize their status in dynamic interactions for enhanced acceptance and effectiveness as socially interactive agents, in the general framework of human-robot interactions. The design and implementation of an interactive, autonomous animatronic system in form of a tabletop dragon and the comparisons of guest responses in its passive and interactive modes are presented in this work. The dragon capabilities include a four degrees-of-freedom head, moving wings, tail, jaw, blinking …

Most craftspeople hardly earn enough to survive and fulfill their basic …

Contemporary Kitsch: An Examination Through Creative Practice, Sally Stewart
Theses: Doctorates and Masters

Once designated to the rubbish bin of culture, kitsch was considered to be low class, bad taste cheap fakes and copies (Greenberg, 1961; Adorno & Horkheimer, 1991; Calinescu, 1987; Dorfles, 1969). I argue, however, that this is no longer the case. This research critically examines the way in which contemporary kitsch now plays a vital and positive role in social and individual aesthetic life.
Although there are conflicting points of view and distinct variations between …
