Hurricane Keith from TRMM: October 5, 2000
3-D view of Hurricane Keith off Mexico from the TRMM satellite. Isosurfaces are generated from TRMM PR and TMI data. Cloud height is generated from the TRMM IR data. Rain rate isosurfaces are 1 inch-hr (green) and 2 inches-hr (red).
Veaver: Award winning multi-video system
Simon Fraser University engineering student Andrew Au has created an interactive video system that literally widens the world -- letting viewers see multiple views at the same time -- with potential applications for surveillance or sporting events.
Recognized with a 2011 BCNET Digital Media Challenge award, Au's project, called Veaver, was inspired by a Microsoft product called PhotoSynth, which can create 3D scenes from user-generated photographs, but doesn't support videos and is not availabl
Second Century of Discovery
An introduction to the history and science of Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego.
EE 120 - Lecture 04 - Signals and Systems
Structure and Interpretation of Systems and Signals - Spring 2007. This course is an introduction to mathematical modeling techniques used in the design of electronic systems. An important keyword here is "mathematical." Subjects we will cover include continous and discrete signals, with applications to audio, images, video, communications, and control; State-based models, beginning with automata and evolving to LTI systems; Frequency domain models for signals and frequency response for systems,

2.1 Exercising judgement To understand how we make decisions, it is useful to start with the ways in which we make judgements about information we are presented with. Let's start this unit with an activity designed to get you exercising judgement. The answers are at the end of the questions but please arrive at your own answers before checking them! The questions in this activity are adapted from Bazerman (1998).

Students explore pollination using two exercises: an ant- and a butterfly-activity. In the ant-exercise, students generate hypotheses for why reports of ant pollination are rare, test one or more hypothesis, and present their findings. In addition to this open-ended inquiry investigation, instructions are also provided for a structured activity in which students germinate pollen and test whether ant-secretions inhibit pollen growth as has been proposed in the scientific literature. In the butter
This curricular unit introduces students to basic Civil Engineering concepts in an exciting and interactive manner. Bridges and skyscrapers, the two most visible products of Civil Engineers, will be discussed in depth. Students will have a chance to design and build balsa wood structures, as well as understand the design principles behind these structures that allow them to withstand vertical and lateral forces. There is also an emphasis on how materials absorb different types of forces. Since t

If there is one thing that makes you different from other animals, it is your extraordinary ability to think. Like other thinking species, humans don't just react to the world as it is: We reflect on the past, imagine what could be, and then plan ways to make our thoughts become reality. Our brain's advanced outer layer, or cortex, enables us to remember past events and predict the future consequences of our actions before we make decisions. We can think about thinking, and use language to excha
