Edheads Video Magnification banner slider Many seemingly static scenes contain subtle changes that are invisible to the naked human eye. However, it is possible to pull out these small changes from videos through the use of algorithms we have developed. We give a way to visualize these small changes by amplifying them and we present algorithms to pull out interesting signals from these videos, such as the human pulse, sound from vibrating objects and the motion of hot air. Videos Software and Code Eulerian Video Magnification code Matlab code and executables implementing Eulerian video processing for amplifying color and motion changes. Phase Based Video Motion Processing code Matlab code for implementing the new and improved phase-based motion magnification pipeline. Videoscope Web interface for motion and color magnification.

Straw Bridges - Activity - www.teachengineering.org Summary Working as engineering teams, students design and create model beam bridges using plastic drinking straws and tape as their construction materials. Their goal is to build the strongest bridge with a truss pattern of their own design, while meeting the design criteria and constraints. They experiment with different geometric shapes and determine how shapes affect the strength of materials. Let the competition begin! Engineering Connection Beam bridges are the most common type of bridge designed by engineers and relatively easy to imagine and build. Educational Standards Each TeachEngineering lesson or activity is correlated to one or more K-12 science, technology, engineering or math (STEM) educational standards. All 100,000+ K-12 STEM standards covered in TeachEngineering are collected, maintained and packaged by the Achievement Standard Network (ASN), a project of JES & Co.

Platforms The Aalto University Platforms are designed to initiate and coordinate multi- and interdisciplinary research and teaching in some thematic area. The Platforms bring together Aalto's competences in the area, and increase Aalto's external visibility. Primary purposes of the Platforms are to facilitate and strengthen the industry-academia collaboration, and to increase the internal cooperation within the University. The Platforms and their agendas are born through a bottom-up process, and aim at concrete benefits for the participating actors.

Radically Cheap: The Story of Pat Delany, Open Source Machine Tools Advocate The ex-rancher felt empathy push his problem-solving mind into a new direction. He looked back at all those years he had tinkered with junk-built machine tools in his workshop — all that time spent poring over scans of antique how-to magazines looking for clever hacks to avoid having to buy new tools. It was fun and sometimes necessary for me, he thought, but what I’ve created here can also help many people. This is the story of Pat Delany, one of the leading creative voices in Appropriate Technology — technology that is small-scale, decentralized, labor-intensive, energy-efficient, environmentally sound, and locally controlled. Delany had worked with machines for his entire life and built many machines for himself. With his last $525, he started an oil and gas information service, Rigmatch Information, which originally ran via dialup on his son’s RadioShack Model 1 computer. The MultiMachine About 13 years ago, Delany decided to build himself a horizontal milling machine on the cheap.
