In this project, we design and implement various algorithms to reduce the energy consumption of the emerging hidgh dynamic range (HDR) displays based on some properties of the human visual system. These algorithms can be used in the modern HDR displays produced by the organization partner.

Recently we have demonstrated that multicore-shell nanoparticles, made of cadmium telluride and zinc oxide, have great potential to be applied into the field of renewable energies due to the ability to split water into H+ and · OH upon irradiation of visible light. Herein we originally propose the utilization of those nanoparticles for a new […]

In the road construction process, a civil engineer commonly uses software to outline the horizontal and vertical road alignment on a topographical map. The software then calculates the amount of earth that needs to be excavated, or filled, at certain points of the alignment as well as pavement costs, land costs and other expenses. Our […]
