The MARTINI adaptive optics instrument
New Astronomy, 2000Abstract The Multi-Aperture Real Time Image Normalisation Instrument (MARTINI) is an adaptive optics system designed to operate at one of the Nasmyth focal stations of the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope. Correction of atmospherically distorted images is achieved by the action of a six element segmented mirror in a real-time servo loop controlled by

Adaptive Controllers as Virtual Instruments
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1994Abstract A virtual instrument environment is an ideal paradigm for building prototype data acquisition and control system. It offers several conventional components of instruments to acquire data from plug-in boards and programmable instruments and then analyze the data, control the process and present the results through graphical interfaces. One of

On the Use of Virtual Instruments in Realizing Adaptive Controllers
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1994Abstract A ‘Virtual Instrument’-based approach of realizing an adaptive PID controller is presented. The principle of the virtual instruments (VIs) - based upon the hardware and software basis provided by National Instruments - proved to be an effective and convenient tool to realize multiple parallel operating adaptive PID controllers. An effective,

Adapting the Instrument Element to Support a Remote Instrumentation Infrastructure
2010GRIDCC was a project funded by the European Commission with the goal to extend the grid by integrating instruments and sensors with traditional computing and storage resources. This chapter describes how the GRIDCC’s instrument element concepts have been implemented to support the challenging requirements of the DORII project and of a usable remote ...

Adopting or Adapting Existing Instruments
2018Cross-cultural translation is one of the major tasks in cross-cultural research. The task of translation becomes more challenging when an instrument is translated into two or more target languages simultaneously, especially with the translation of special constructs. This chapter (1) reviews existing cross-cultural translation approaches and offers the

Adversarial Domain Adaptation for Medieval Instrument Recognition
2021Image classification models have improved drastically due to neural networks. But as a direct consequence of being trained on a specific dataset, neural networks tend to be biased towards theirs training data and provide worse results on other domains.

An adaptive instrument module (AIM) for satellite systems
ISSPA '99. Proceedings of the Fifth International Symposium on Signal Processing and its Applications (IEEE Cat. No.99EX359), 2003This paper introduces the preliminary design and operation of an adaptive instrument module (AIM) for space applications, which uses FPGA technology to enable in-flight hardware and software reconfiguration. An experimental AIM will be flown as a payload on the low Earth orbit satellite FedSat.

Abstract New adaptive music technologies are making participation in mainstream instrumental education a possibility for many students with disabilities for the first time. However, traditional organological classification systems focusing primarily on an instrument’s method of sound production do not adequately describe these ...

Adaptive Engineering for Musical Instruments
Medical Problems of Performing Artists, 2005Musicians who become disabled may not necessarily need to discontinue music making. This article provides 12 examples of musicians for whom musical instruments were modified to accommodate specific disabilities. Ingenuity, imagination, and flexibility can help individuals with disabilities overcome obstacles to continue music making.
