Far-field Imaging beyond the Diffraction Limit Using a Single Radar [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
Far-field imaging beyond the diffraction limit is a long sought-after goal in various imaging applications, which requires usually an array of antennas or mechanical scanning. Here, we present an alternative and novel concept for this challenging problem: a single radar system consisting of a spatial-temporal resonant aperture antenna (referred to as ...

Penn & Slavery Project's Augmented Reality Tour: Augmenting a Campus to Reveal a Hidden History [PDF]

arXiv
In 2006 and 2016, the University of Pennsylvania denied any ties to slavery. In 2017, a group of undergraduate researchers, led by Professor Kathleen Brown, investigated this claim. Initial research, focused on 18th century faculty and trustees who owned slaves, revealed deep connections between the university's history and the institution of slavery ...

What Makes Systemic Discrimination, "Systemic?" Exposing the Amplifiers of Inequity [PDF]

arXiv
Drawing on work spanning economics, public health, education, sociology, and law, I formalize theoretically what makes systemic discrimination "systemic." Injustices do not occur in isolation, but within a complex system of interdependent factors; and their effects may amplify as a consequence.

Mixed Reality Heritage Performance As a Decolonising Tool for Heritage Sites [PDF]

arXiv
In this paper we introduce two world-first Mixed Reality (MR) experiences that fuse smart AR glasses and live theatre and take place in a heritage site with the purpose to reveal the site's hidden and difficult histories about slavery. We term these unique general audience experiences Mixed Reality Heritage Performances (MRHP).
