3. 2. Mellanrum: Towards an Entangled Audiovisual Practice

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Högskolan för scen och musik

   Author : Julius Norrbom; [2023-01-23]
   Keywords : audiovisual; generative art; generative music; modular synthesizer; electronic music; systems; networks;

   Abstract : This artistic research project is a document of an entangled audiovisual practice in progress. With a generative approach and thinking in systems applied to modular synthesizers and procedural computer graphics the aim is to blur the line between the process of generating sounding material and the process of generating visual material.

4. 3. Assessing the Efficiency of COLMAP, DROID-SLAM, and NeRF-SLAM in 3D Road Scene Reconstruction

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

   Author : Marcus Ascard; Farjam Movahedi; [2023]
   Keywords : 3D reconstruction; Visual SLAM; Pose evaluation; Point cloud evaluation; Road scenes; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : 3D reconstruction is a field in computer vision which has evolved rapidly as a result of the recent advancements in deep learning. As 3D reconstruction pipelines now can run in real-time, this has opened up new possibilities for teams developing Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), which rely on the camera system of the vehicle to enhance the safety and driving experience.

Drawing on the concepts of synaesthesia and visual music, a discussion on how both concepts relate to each other serves as the key method for analyzing a selection of films. READ MORE

6. 5. Procedural generation and weathering of building facades : Replicating shape and distribution of wear-and-tear on real-world building facades

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Love Wessman; [2023]
   Keywords : procedural modeling; building facades; wear and tear; procedurell modellering; byggnadsfasader; slitage;

   Abstract : Manual modeling of building facades can be a cumbersome process. Instead, procedurally modeling building facades is a practical and quick way to achieve impressive visual results. This paper presents a method for prototyping 2D facades existing in a 3d environment, with the inclusion of shading-based procedural wear-and-tear. READ MORE
