Beyond Digital Representation
This book collects contributions which showcase the impact of new augmented reality (AR) and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies considered jointly in the fields of cultural heritage and innovative design. AR is an alternative path of analysis and communication if applied to several fields of research, in particular if related to space and artifacts in it. This happens because the neural network development strengthens the relationship between augmented reality and artificial intelligence, creating processes close to human thought in shorter times. In the last years, the AR/AI expansion and the future scenarios have raised a deep trans-disciplinary speculation. The disciplines of repre...
Advances in Human Factors in Training, Education, and Learning Sciences
This book addresses the importance of human factors in optimizing the learning and training process. It reports on the latest research and best practices relating to the application of behavioral and cognitive science, and new technologies in the design of instructional and training content. It proposes innovative strategies for improving the learning and training experience and outcomes in different contexts, including lower and higher education, and different industry sectors. A special emphasis is given to digital and distance learning, gamification, and virtual training. Gathering contributions to the AHFE 2021 Conference on Human Factors in Training, Education, and Learning Sciences, held virtually on July 25-29, 2021, from USA, this book offers extensive information and a thought-provoking guide for both researchers and practitioners in the field of education and training.
Geometries of Anamorphic Illusions
This book intends to focus exclusively on anamorphic experiments in contemporary art and design, leaving an in-depth historical examination of its Baroque season to other studies. Themes, languages and fields of application of anamorphosis in contemporary culture are critically analyzed to make the reader aware of the communicative potentiality of this kind of geometrical technique. The book also has the aim to teach the reader the most appropriate geometric techniques for each of them, in order to achieve the designed illusion. Each typology of anamorphosis is accompanied in this book by contemporary installations, a geometrical explanation by means of 3D models and didactic experiments carried on in collaboration with the students of the Department of Architecture in Naples.
Perspective and the Blind : rappresentazione e comunicazione inclusiva per l’accessibilità dei dipinti prospettici
Due mani che esplorano, due occhi che possono solo immaginare. Se c’è qualcosa di universale al mondo, a cui tutti dovrebbero avere il diritto di accedere, quella è l’arte, in tutte le sue forme. Eppure, l’accessibilità all’arte da parte di persone con disabilità visiva è stata per lungo tempo generalmente associata al superamento delle barriere architettoniche; tuttavia, per consentir loro una reale fruizione dei beni artistici e aprire la strada verso il diritto all’esperienza estetica per tutti, è necessario affrontarne l’accessibilità dal punto di vista sensoriale, esperienziale e cognitivo. Il testo propone un approccio metodologico-didattico for all per la ‘traduzi...
Lo spazio narrativo nei videogiochi : la rappresentazione dello spazio virtuale come nuova modalità narrativa negli Entertainment Games e nei Cultural Games
Il videogioco è il medium emblematico della contemporaneità che invita a riflettere sulle nuove modalità dell’uomo di fare conoscenza ed esperienza del mondo. Video-giocare significa per l’utente accedere alla scrittura di una narrazione spaziale, fatta di ambienti virtuali da navigare, azioni da compiere e rappresentazioni multimediali con cui interagire. Il videogioco inizia oggi ad essere accolto anche nelle istituzioni museali che stanno sperimentando linguaggi innovativi al fine di attua¬lizzare il proprio modo di raccontare le opere e le collezioni, offrendo esperienze più interattive e adatte ai nuovi pubblici culturali. Disinteressarsi di questa nuova modalità narrativa sig...
Annalisa Blisini
Per San Michele la famiglia Bilsini cambiò di casa ed anche di terra. Era una famiglia numerosa: cinque figli maschi, la madre vedova, e uno zio di lei, che, sebbene mezzo paralitico e senza un soldo di suo, poteva dirsene il capo. Appunto per i consigli dello zio Dionisio, i Bilsini avevano venduto la loro piccola proprietà per prendere in affitto un vasto fondo, già antico feudo gentilizio che, di decadenza in decadenza, acquistato in ultimo a vile prezzo da un fabbricante di scope, veniva da questi concesso a modestissime condizioni annuali: cento dieci lire la biolca, due capponi, quaranta uova d'inverno e un cestino d'uva da tavola per l'estate. Da anni questa terra giaceva in abb...

Comunicare il patrimonio museale
[Italiano]: La digitalizzazione ha avuto un impatto profondo sul modo in cui rappresentiamo, comunichiamo e dunque gestiamo oggi il patrimonio culturale, sia online che in presenza; contemporaneamente, il sempre più immediato e veloce trasferimento di contenuti audio e video ha reso possibile la produzione di storie più attraenti per il pubblico. Di conseguenza, l’evoluzione delle risorse tecnologiche digitali a disposizione dei narratori ha influenzato la forma delle narrazioni stesse. Le nuove tecnologie multimediali, come gli ipertesti e i materiali grafici ed audiovisivi, possono oggi essere integrate nella narrazione, introducendo concetti innovativi e stimolando l’interesse, dand...
Activity Monitoring by Multiple Distributed Sensing
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Activity Monitoring by Multiple Distributed Sensing, AMMDS 2014, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in August 2014, as a satellite event of ICPR 2014, the 22nd International Conference on Pattern Recognition. The 9 revised full papers included in the volume investigate the challenges that arise when distributed sensor networks are used to track, monitor, and understand the activity, intent, and motives of human beings. Application areas include human-computer interaction, user interface design, robot learning, and surveillance.
Mitchell Goes Bowling
Battle on! Head to the lanes for another hilarious, high-energy story as four-year-old Mitchell and his obliging dad strike a winning deal. Mitchell liked to knock things down. That’s just how he rolled. One Saturday, when Mitchell almost knocks down his dad, his dad catches him and puts him in the car. And when they step into the bowling alley, Mitchell feels right at home. Pizza! Giant crashing noises! Special shoes! But as Mitchell picks up the biggest ball and quickly learns the word gutter, and when Dad does a little kick with his leg and earns a big X on the scoreboard, Mitchell starts to get peevish. How can Mitchell get a chance to do a steamin’-hot-potato-dance too? With wit, warmth, and comedic charm, Hallie Durand and Tony Fucile roll another strike with this tale of a lovably rambunctious child and his doting dad.
