Separating true range measurements from multi-path and scattering interference in commercial range cameras [PDF]
, 2011 Time-of-flight range cameras acquire a three-dimensional image of a scene simultaneously for all pixels from a single viewing location. Attempts to use range cameras for metrology applications have been hampered by the multi-path problem, which causes ...

Electrolytic lesions within central complex neuropils of the cockroach brain affect negotiation of barriers [PDF]
, 2010 Animals must negotiate obstacles in their path in order to successfully function within natural environments. These actions require transitions from walking to other behaviors, many of which are more involved than simple reflexes.

Looking beyond stratification: a model-based analysis of the biological drivers of oxygen deficiency in the North Sea [PDF]
, 2016 Low oxygen conditions, often referred to as oxy- gen deficiency, occur regularly in the North Sea, a temperate European shelf sea. Stratification represents a major process regulating the seasonal dynamics of bottom oxygen, yet, low- est oxygen ...
