Evaluation of Ambient Light Display for High Information Capacity

Ambient light display presents peripheral information unobtrusively,and it can be context aware and aesthetically enhance specific environment.However,since the abstract characteristic of light,people should attentively keep agood balance between unobtrusiveness and effectiveness,when designing an ambient light display.Especially,in the condition of high information capacity,ambient light display need a mechanism to portray information effectively.In this paper,a framework with an overlay mechanism is evaluated for high information capacity.Based on the framework,two ambient light displays are designed to support the evaluation work.The evaluation questions are related with three aspects including information understanding,transition and encoding,special output channel.From the perception level,interpretation level and experience level,the process of evaluation is implemented.The results indicate that the framework with the overlay mechanism can effectively support varied and specific communicating information.The transitions and information encoding benefit from the proper mapping of states and notification levels in the framework.

Optimization method for a radar situation interface from error-cognition to information feature mapping

With the rapid development of digital and intelligent information systems, display of radar situation interface has become an important challenge in the field of human-computer interaction. We propose a method for the optimization of radar situation interface from error-cognition through the mapping of information characteristics. A mapping method of matrix description is adopted to analyze the association properties between error-cognition sets and design information sets. Based on the mapping relationship between the domain of error-cognition and the domain of design information, a cross-correlational analysis is carried out between error-cognition and design information.We obtain the relationship matrix between the error-cognition of correlation between design information and the degree of importance among design information. Taking the task interface of a warfare navigation display as an example, error factors and the features of design information are extracted. Based on the results, we also propose an optimization design scheme for the radar situation interface.

Spatial analysis for underground pipeline network information system

It is appropriate to establish underground pipeline network information system based on MapInfo software platform in many enterprises when taking account of the firm size and data amount. Since some functions of MapInfo in spatial analysis are not very strong relatively, it is difficult for MapInfo to fulfill some common functions about pipeline analysis such as spatial configuration, three-dimensional display, pipe exploding and so on. The thought and arithmetic to solve the above problems are approached based on respect theories of computer graphics and graph theory. A variety of function moduli have developed by means of senior computer languages and the system integration is realized.

Information Visualization Theorem for Battlefield Screen

Designing military screen (display) is not complicated in the past, the design should contains easiness of using, visibility and functionality. And it is important that contains all of the information what the system could be gotten. Today military display design can be valued by consideration of human’s cognition model. A few information, which operators of military display could easily miss, could bring critical loss. So the military display needs the ability to help operator decide the military decision with sufficient consideration of battlefield information in a short time. The information is considerably complicated because it has many military entities and many attributes for each entities. For this reason this research contains the methodology of information organization especially for visual information. When the operator use military display, the required information should be recognized at a glance and located where the operator can place his eye easily. Therefore, the display screen should efficiently organize and effectively transfer the information. This paper specifically proposes design methodology to effectively organize and visualize the information in the display screen. The theory of information visualization in a variety of fields already exist, but it has no established theory for the origin of the display screen design. Since the theory was selected to organize the military display interface design for the display screen of the battlefield situation existing information visualization theory.

Airport Management—Value of Customer Display Systems

By providing real-time updates of essential information, airports not only display and disseminate information but also help control the flow of traffic. In order to maximize available space, particularly in high traffic areas, Airport Display Information Systems should be integrated into the overall design of the airport and their positioning should be carefully planned to deliver optimal results. Airport Display Information Systems can help airports maximize space, increase customer satisfaction, and generate new revenue opportunities. The technology is designed not only to comply with environmental regulations, but also to help airports keep budgets in check. This paper discusses airport display systems, their connections and interoperability with other systems and who the key airport users of these airport display systems are.

Psycho-visual modulation based information display:introduction and survey

Industry and academia have been making great efforts in improving refresh rates and resolutions of display devices to meet the ever increasing needs of consumers for better visual quality.As a result,many modem displays have spatial and temporal resolutions far beyond the discern capability of human visual systems.Thus,leading to the possibility of using those display-eye redundancies for innovative usages.Tempo-ral/spatial psycho-visual modulation(TPVM/SPVM)was proposed to exploit those redundancies to generate multiple visual percepts for different viewers or to transmit non-visual data to computing devices without affecting normal viewing.This paper reviews the STPVM technology from both conceptual and algorithmic perspectives,with exemplary applications in multiview display,display with visible light communication,etc.Some possible future research directions are also identified.

Sunlight activated ultra-stable long persistent luminescence glass ceramic for outdoor information display

Natural sunlight activated persistent luminescence(PeL)is ideal candidate for optical information display in outdoors without the requirement of electric supply.Except the brightness and duration,the stability especially water resistance of the PeL materials is of significant importance for practical application,which remains a great obstacle up to date.Herein,we report a new sunlight activated PeL glass ceramic containing hexagonal Sr_(13)Al_(22)Si_(10)O_(66):Eu^(2+)crystals,which exhibits strong blue PeL and can last more than 200 h.The PeL can be charged by the full wavelengths located in AM 1.5G due to the broad distribution of traps in the crystal structure.The PeL is clearly observed by the naked eye even after 24 h upon sunlight irradiation irrespective of the weather,and the photoluminescence intensity only decreased~3.3%after storing in water for 365 d.We demonstrate its potential application for thermal and stress responsive display as well as long-term continuous security indication upon sunlight irradiation,which not only save vast energy and reduce environment pollution,but also are appropriate for outdoor usage.

Holographic storage of three-dimensional image and data using photopolymer and polymer dispersed liquid crystal films

We present holographic storage of three-dimensional（3D） images and data in a photopolymer film without any applied electric field.Its absorption and diffraction efficiency are measured,and reflective analog hologram of real object and image of digital information are recorded in the films.The photopolymer is compared with polymer dispersed liquid crystals as holographic materials.Besides holographic diffraction efficiency of the former is little lower than that of the latter,this work demonstrates that the photopolymer is more suitable for analog hologram and big data permanent storage because of its high definition and no need of high voltage electric field.Therefore,our study proposes a potential holographic storage material to apply in large size static 3D holographic displays,including analog hologram displays,digital hologram prints,and holographic disks.

DataV:Data Visualization on large high-resolution displays

In recent years,the technology and applications of visualizations on large high-resolution displays(LHDs)have received widespread attention because of its perceptual benefits and improved productivity.However,existing work on LHD visualization lacks both comprehensive guidance for design requirements and tools developed for its specific usage scenarios.In this paper,we present the scenarios,design,and implementation of DataV,a Software-as-a-Service(SaaS)visual deployment tool that enables rapid construction and cross-platform publishing of interactive visualization on LHDs.Our framework can support rich components for the high-performance rendering of multisource heterogeneous data.DataV provides a full-fledged toolchain to help the user efficiently specify layout and interactions.We present its accessibility and impressive visual effects with examples and comparison with Tableau,Power BI,VisComposer,and iVisDesigner.We also report the performance of using DataV for 3D map rendering by comparing it with deck.gl.

An Interactive Visual Analytics Framework for Multi-Field Data in a Geo-Spatial Context

Climate research produces a wealth of multivariate data. These data often have a geospatial reference and so it is of interest to show them within their geospatial context. One can consider this configuration as a multifield visualization problem, where the geo-space provides the expanse of the field. However, there is a limit on the amount of multivariate information that can be fit within a certain spatial location, and the use of linked multivariate information displays has previously been devised to bridge this gap. In this paper we focus on the interactions in the geographical display, present an implementation that uses Google Earth, and demonstrate it within a tightly linked parallel coordinates display. Several other visual representations, such as pie and bar charts are integrated into the Google Earth display and can be interactively manipulated. Further, we also demonstrate new brushing and visualization techniques for parallel coordinates, such as fixed-window brushing and correlation-enhanced display. We conceived our system with a team of climate researchers, who already made a few important discoveries using it. This demonstrates our system＇s great potential to enable scientific discoveries, possibly also in other domains where data have a geospatial reference.
