Triadic interactions with tools in a gorilla.
Triadic interactions are an important developmental milestone for young human infants, ultimately enabling them to acquire language. When an infant and a caregiver share attention regarding an object, the label given to the object becomes linked with the

Point to point GALS interconnect [PDF]
Reliable, low-latency channel communication between independent clock domains may be achieved using a combination of clock pausing techniques, self-calibrating delay lines and an asynchronous interconnect. Such a scheme can be used for point-to-point communication in a globally asynchronous locally synchronous (GALS) system, a possible methodology for ...

Dogs (Canis familiaris), but not chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), understand imperative pointing [PDF]
Chimpanzees routinely follow the gaze of humans to outside targets. However, in most studies using object choice they fail to use communicative gestures (e.g. pointing) to find hidden food.

The many meanings of a gestural motif [PDF]
In an insightful 1887 essay, the Danish art historian Julius Lange explored the many meanings of a common but overlooked gesture—that of bringing a hand to one’s chest.

Ovariectomy Impairs Socio-Cognitive Functions in Dogs
Recent studies have underlined the effect of ovariectomy on the spatial cognition of female dogs, with ovariectomized dogs showing a clear preference for an egocentric rather than an allocentric navigation strategy whereas intact females did not show ...

Production and comprehension of gestures between orang-utans (Pongo pygmaeus) in a referential communication game [PDF]
Orang-utans played a communication game in two studies testing their ability to produce and comprehend requestive pointing. While the 'communicator' could see but not obtain hidden food, the 'donor' could release the food to the communicator, but could ...

Is It Pointing to Grasping or Grasping Pointing? [PDF]
The Smeets and Brenner view on grasping is simple: grasping is in fact pointing. In our comments we examine the model beyond the reach-to-grasp task namely, by grasping (without reaching) of moving objects and eating. The model fits the data of both tasks.

Dynamically Balanced Pointing System for CubeSats: Study and 3D Printing Manufacturing
The increasing presence of additive manufacturing (AM) in the space sector prompted us to investigate the feasibility of a single degree of freedom (DoF) pointing system (PS) made by means of a compound planetary gear train system (C-PGTS) integrating a ...
