A device which performs optimal face recognition in a miniature unobtrusive device that is built around a common aperture imaging camera with a convenient visible light camera.

Accessible and portable watercraft transfer devices that provide safe access to boats for individuals who have difficulty boarding boats, such as people with mobility impairments, balance issues, or lower extremity injuries

We propose to develop an ultra-high speed hydrostatic spindle with maximum speed of 120,000rpm and combine it with high frequency axial oscillations of about few kilohertz. Ultra-high speed hydrostatic spindle for internal grinding with axial oscillations of rotating shaft effectively combines advantages of hydrostatic spindles with the unique technological potential of high frequency axial oscil ...

Model perception and understanding the spatial structure of organic molecules have historically been a source of difficulty for high school chemistry students. The classic ball-and-stick model, developed in 1865, is still used today to convey the fundamental characteristics of a molecular system. This model is an inadequate representation of a dynamic system, which fails to accurately represent ...

The First 4,000 Words project will develop and test a multimedia system for ensuring that students in Grades 1-4 know the meanings of the 4,000 most frequently used English words when they hear them and see them in print and can pronounce them. The target population is English language learners, struggling readers, or children of poverty who have small vocabularies relative to their peers.

Modern airframes require thousands of drilled holes in difficult materials such as graphite-epoxy composites, titanium, or layered metal-composite assemblies. Drill life and hole quality are often limited when drilling composites due to heat buildup. Drilling composite/metallic stackups often requires costly interlayer deburring due to rapid drill wear. Trial-and-error approaches to improving dr ...

THIS PROJECT IS DESIGNED TO DEVELOP A COMPUTER-ASSISTED METHOD OF DEVELOPING THE INDIVIDUAL FAMILY SERVICE PLAN (IFSP) REQUIRED OF EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAMS AS PART OF THE 1986 EDUCATION OF THE HANDICAPPED ACT. BECAUSE OF THE CONSTANTLY CHANGING DEVELOPMENTAL PHASES OF THE BIRTH TO FIVE YEAR OLD POPULATION, SPECIFIC LONG TERM ACHIEVEMENTS ARE VERY DIFFICULT FOR PROFESSIONALS TO PREDICT. AS A RES ...
