An initiative is “a new plan or action to improve something or solve a problem”. The examples give an even better understanding of what initiatives represent: a marketing/cost-cutting initiative, a diplomatic/peace initiative. More
The term endpoint is used in two contexts:
You have an idea for a software project that will have a big impact on your business. Before jumping into the design and development it is crucial to understand exactly what problems it addresses, who the target audience is, if the solution will genuinely add value, and a number of other key factors. This is why a Discovery Phase is an integral part of the project lifecycle.
Project discovery is the initial step in project development. It’s aimed at collecting information about the project to identify its Vision, Goals, and Scope.
Data visualization is the graphical representation of information and data. By using visual elements like charts, graphs, and maps, data visualization tools provide an accessible way to see and understand trends, outliers, and patterns in data.
Digital Transformation is the process of transforming a business by replacing non-digital and manual processes with digital technology and processes. It also includes replacing older digital technology with new digital technology.
Liquid Crystal Displays use an amazing array of technologies to display pictures and text. See how they work!
Important background information: Read this post on color space to understand how the RGB color system in LCD displays work.
They aren’t quite liquids or solids, but they’ll definitely be a force for the future. This animated series of short videos acts as a video glossary to defin…
Thermochromic (TC) products change color in response to temperature fluctuations. The most famous TC application ever was the “mood” ring of the 1970s. More
Thermal mapping, or temperature mapping, establishes the temperature distribution, or profile, within the zone being mapped. There are different technologies for producing a thermal map. Perhaps the most recognized way of thermal mapping is through the use of thermal imaging. Thermal imaging is the process of converting infrared (IR) radiation (heat) into visible images that […] More
Velocimetry is the measurement of the velocity of fluids. The fluids can be either liquid or gas. This is a task often taken for granted and involves far more complex processes than one might expect. It is often used to solve fluid dynamics problems, study fluid networks, in industrial and process control applications, as well as in the creation of new kinds of fluid flow sensors. Methods of velocimetry include particle image velocimetry and particle tracking velocimetry, Molecular tagging velocimetry, laser-based interferometry, ultrasonic Doppler methods, Doppler sensors, and new signal processing methodologies.
As an illustration of how velocimetry can be done, let’s take the method of particle image velocimetry (PIV). In PIV, the fluid is seeded with tracer particles which, for sufficiently small particles, are assumed to faithfully follow the flow dynamics. The fluid with entrained particles is illuminated so that particles are visible. The motion of the seeding particles is used to calculate the speed and direction (the velocity field) of the flow being studied.
Here is a brief video explaining Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbuuhpQCWz8
