SHAPE ANALYSIS APPLIED IN NANOMANIPULATOR

视觉：获得一个工作PixelFlow系统， 加速了我们对多个数据的可视化显示的研究， 在一个单一的表面上。 我们的团队开发了一种工具， 实时计算来自多个 数据集。 这些包括斑点噪声纹理， 斑点纹理，凹凸贴图纹理，双向反射 函数着色器和其他高级可视化技术。 所有 这些着色器已经被集成到可视化系统中，该可视化系统 允许用户将任何输入数据集映射到任何输出通道。 触觉：我们继续对摩擦力的使用进行调查， 顺应性和粘附性来触觉地呈现数据集。 我们 与来自心理学系的马克·霍林斯一起工作， 研究领域是视觉和触觉感知。 他会帮助我们 确定哪些是最有用的技术。

Visual: The acquisition of a working PixelFlow system has greatly accelerated our investigation into the visual display of multiple data sets on a single surface. Our team has developed a tool that allows the real-time computation of advanced visualizations from multiple data sets. These include a spot-noise texture, alpha-blending in a spot texture, bump-mapped textures, a bidirectional reflectance function shader and other advanced visualization techniques. All of these shaders have been integrated into a visualization system that allows the user to map any input data set to any output channel. Haptic: We continue our investigation into the use of friction, compliance and adhesion to present data sets haptically. We are working with Mark Hollins from the UNC Psychology department, whose field of study is visual and haptic perception. He will help us determine which are the most useful techniques.
