Stagnating growth in our educational systems has piqued interests in alternative teaching methods such as the inclusion of "serious games" into curricula. In response to those needs, a series of educational games have been developed in accordance with pre-engineering programs such as Project Lead the Way (PLTW). The focus of development is in creating an engaging, educational environment...
The real-time rendering of large-scale terrain has been widely used in driving simulation, virtual battlefields and 3D games. Large-scale terrain holds huge geometric and textural data. How to generate and render large-scale terrain in real time with limited computing resources is a big challenge. Different from the previous out-of-core terrain roaming methods which are based on complex scheduling...
As radical and transformative technological revolution significantly changes the way of science and engineering practice, bringing these changes into engineering classroom becomes a need. This paper presents such a conduct that designs a virtual reality (VR) theme-based game system as a replacement of traditional laboratory activities in two fundamental electrical and computer engineering courses:...
In this paper, the protection of a new low-voltage motor controller is introduced based on ARM technology, the LPC2136 is applied as motor control center. The composition of systems and signal processing are described in detail. The design makes full use of internal hardware resource, prevents motor damage effectively, and includes protection, measurement and all.
This paper realized a serial communication using a pulse counting method. it introduced a call system in which each caller is coded by quasi-digital and the host computer adopts the time-division process and the cyclic query to deal with signal sent by each caller in order to avoid the signal contention, finally it designed the circuit and implement the system. The wired call system is usually applied...
Ecological studies of shallow water and wetland habitats are often hindered by difficulty accessing remote sites. Current methods of data acquisition, are either lack of the flexibility that is critical to characterizing conditions or organisms in dynamic habitats (such as physical sampling, mounting sensors in the field), or too big and expensive to work in shallow water or wetland habitats (such...
