can i know about history of scanner?

syazreen_0

Answer
Well there are many types of a scanner all for different purposes but if u r talking about Image Scanner than
In computing, a scanner is a device that analyzes images, printed text, or handwriting, or an object (such as an ornament) and converts it to a digital image. Most scanners today are variations of the desktop (or flatbed) scanner. The flatbed scanner is the most common in offices. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, were briefly popular but are now not used due to the difficulty of obtaining a high-quality image. Both these types of scanners use charge-coupled device (CCD) or Contact Image Sensor (CIS) as the image sensor, whereas older drum scanners use a photomultiplier tube as the image sensor.

Another category of scanner is a rotary scanner used for high-speed document scanning. This is another kind of drum scanner, but it uses a CCD array instead of a photomultiplier.

Other types of scanners are planetary scanners, which take photographs of books and documents, and 3D scanners, for producing three-dimensional models of objects, but this type of scanner is considerably more expensive relative to other types of scanners.

Another category of scanner are digital camera scanners which are based on the concept of reprographic cameras. Due to the increasing resolution and new features such as anti-shake, digital cameras become an attractive alternative to regular scanners. While still containing disadvantages compared to traditional scanners, digital cameras offer unmatched advantages in speed and portability.

How The games are made?

Katie

I don't understand how the dress up games are made...I saw on deviantART .cool games.made even by children 13-14 years old...and they said stuff like that "i wanted to put this music but i thought this is better....i don't know if you like the background ..but i think is Ok"..ok..ok..but how did u do all this stuff....i read something about Flash 8..but i don't understand too much.help me!Thanks!

Answer
Making the Game

For most people, the video game experience starts at the store and ends on the couch. Few realize that creating a game can be as complex as making a Hollywood blockbuster. Months of planning and preparation, script writing, casting, character development, cutting-edge technology and massive computing power go into making games.

To get an idea of how it all works, we visited Gas Powered Games, the Kirkland, Wash.-based creators of the popular Dungeon Siege series. The company was hard at work on the next installment in the series, Dungeon Siege II.


In the Beginning: Preproduction

Every game begins with a story. Often story ideas come from game designers themselves or are pitched by outsiders, but increasingly they are based on other forms of entertainment like popular movies. Other common sources are sequels or spin offs of existing games and simulations of real-world events.

Once the basic game concept is decided upon, writers and artists work together on a storyboard. A storyboard consists of rough sketches and technical instructions sequentially organized to depict each scene of the game. It is a visual representation of the story and a reference for the writers, artists and designers just as it would be for a film. But while a film has a single storyline, a video game can have thousands of outcomes. Therefore various levels, or "worlds," of the game must be sketched out.


Creating the Characters

As the storyboard is made, designers begin to create the characters. Rough sketches of major characters are drawn and redrawn until they are perfect. It's important for the artists to refine the characters as much as possible at this stage because it will be costly to make changes later.

Once the character design is finalized, it's time to transform the sketches into controllable 3D characters.

According to Steve Thompson, art director for Gas Powered Games, it takes about five days to design and program a character.

The sketches are first scanned into the computer. Then, a digital exoskeleton is created to define the character's shape and to give the computer the control points necessary to animate the figure. The more detailed this exoskeleton is, the more realistic the motion of the character will be. Next, layers of "skin" are added, followed by layers of color and texture.


Putting It All in Motion

At this point, the character is basically a digital marionette. The game programmers bring this figure to life by instructing the computer to move the character. Several techniques can be used to do this, depending on the type of game and motion desired. In some games (not Dungeon Siege II), the motions of a human actor are captured using a special suit of sensors to represent the control points of the character's skeleton. These movements then can be mapped onto the character's skeleton to produce ultra-realistic motion.

How are video games projected on screen?

Lp182

I know that we aren't actually looking at a constant moving video game and that all we are seeing are multiple frames per second. But how is it done? I'm just curious how they do it. And are video games only projected at 30 frames and 60 frames per second, or are there other # of frames that can be shown in a given second?

Answer
The numbers 30 and 60 are a side effect of the NTSC format of television. Even back in the black-and-white days of TV, NTSC was a 640X480 image, interlaced (draws all the odd lines in one pass, then draws all the even lines on the next), and operating at 60 Hz. It wasn't until about 10 years ago that consumers started seeing any change to this, when EDTVs came on the scene and changed the interlaced to Progressive Scan (all lines are drawn sequentially on each pass), and then HDTVs changing the image resolution. Very recently, sets that can do 120 Hz have come onto the market. In Europe, they uses the PAL format, which ran at 50 Hz, but switched to 60 Hz for HDTV to simplify things for TV manufacturers (who had started to sell sets in Europe that could handle both 50 Hz and 60 Hz).

So for the longest time, TVs were displaying 60 half-frames (due to interlacing). As such, having a game run at 60 Hz would result in slightly smoother animation, but a lot more processing power which could otherwise be used to enhance the detail. So typically 60 frames games were smoother, but 30 frames games were much more detailed. Any other rate, and you the smoothness will vary, which is rather jarring to the immersiveness factor.

All of this only applies to consoles, though, since PCs have always had monitors that could do a variety of framerates, and therfore their games always strived for the highest framerate possible (and where 60 Hz is on the far low end) and don't really worry about the framerate dipping at times. High end modern monitors can typically do at least 140 Hz, and some older games on new hardware can actually create several hundred frames per second if certain settings are disabled.

Regardless of PC or console, the same programming technique is used for creating the frames and managing the process of sending them to the screen. Each object is placed in position in a virtual 3D space in RAM, textures are applied (only if they are facing the virtual camera's location), the view from the virtual camera is established, and the objects that the camera can see are flattened into a 2D image. This whole process is called rendering.

Then, the rendered image is put into a piece of memory (usually in the graphics chip itself) that has been designated as a "frame". This frame is then sent to the TV/monitor, and as it is being sent, a second image is being rendered and put into a second "frame". Once the first frame has been sent to the screen completely, the second frame is designated as the primary frame, and a third image is rendered and overwrites the first frame. This process is called Frame Buffering.

PCs (and maybe HDMI TV connections, I'm not sure) have the capability of the monitor being able to send a signal back to the game program and tell it when a frame is done being drawn. This allows the game to not switch frames while it is being sent to the screen (vertical synch), preventing a top section of an image and a bottom section of the same image displayed not matching up, refered to as "tearing". Since consoles know what frequency the TV is operating at based on the region (or more recently in Europe, through an option in the settings for either the game or the system), they can simply use an internal timer as an artificial vertical synch.

My computer keeps freezing?

sirhouse

My computer freezes a lot to the point where its become "useless". I'll list the history of what happened to it and if anyone has a fix to it I'm literally going to explode out of happiness.

I got my first blue screen playing a 3D game called minecraft, all I had to do was restart my computer and it worked again. This kept happening but not to the point where it was annoying, it rarely happened.

But I kept playing games and it got to the point where I would get a blue screen after a few minutes every time I played any game or video.

I asked a question on here a while ago and I got some help that told me it was the graphics card/driver. I uninstalled the graphics driver and reinstalled it, but the problems continued.

I thought it had to be an overheating problem so I removed the back case of my laptop. But in fact this made it much worse and I thought it was because now my RAM sticks weren't seated securely and they were moving around causing it to crash much more commonly. So I took one out I couldn't find the other one but this didn't change anything at all except now it crashes even when I'm not doing anything video related like surfing the web.

Anyways thats where I'm at now. I think its a problem with the hardware because it kept getting worse over time, but I don't know what parts not working. Thanks for ANY advice/pointers!

Answer
What Operating System your using?

Suggest running the Memory Diagnostics Tool from Microsoft:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-nz/windows7/diagnosing-memory-problems-on-your-computer

If one or more memory sticks is corrupted at a point, then your find that your computer will randomly crash (when it has reached and tries to use that address). So, this could happen at any time - boot time, during any application/game, etc. If this is your issue, then carefully remove all memory sticks (after removing static from your body by grounding yourself - for example: touching a piece of metal area on the computer) except for one and retest each individually... place back any good ones and replace the damaged one(s).

Next scan your computer hard drive(s) for errors, go under "My Computer" -> Right click on each Local Disk (one at a time) -> Properties -> Tools (tab) -> Erroring Checking -> Check Now. Select automatically fix file system errors and also check for bad sectors option. If the drive is in use, it might ask to check on next boot up instead (say okay and restart).

Next scan your computer for viruses, spyware and trojans. If you already have an virus scanner, then ensure it is up-to-date as well as Windows, a good firewall and other applications you use regularly. Most virus scanner are utter rubbish, I recommend total application control rather than virus definition only scanners. This means something which gives or denies each application/game access to various areas of your system (including itself) with a strong firewall to prevent any network access, such as Kaspersky Internet Security.

You can check with some free tools, such as: http://www.kaspersky.com/virus-scanner

Also, check for spyware using a free manual running application (which doesn't conflict with your virus scanner) such as Lava Soft Ad-Aware: http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php or Spybot: http://www.safer-networking.org/dl/

Next clean out any startup background applications and/or services you don't need. This is more advance, only remove what you know is and don't want. You can use Start -> Run -> type "MsConfig.exe" and press enter, then look under the Startup tab, also more carefully under the Services tab (Leave it alone or Google search the name of each if unsure what it is/does).

Java Program help! Please!!!!?

Rogue

26.Write a program that reads which stores a set of positives integers into an array. The length of the array should be the first input item. Enter the values in increasing order. Then display the list on the screen, and next to each number, the number of times it occurs in the list. For example, for the list

13, 15, 15, 28, 28, 40, 48, 62, 62, 62

the output should appear as follows:

Number Count
13 1
15 2
28 2
40 1
48 1
62 3

All I want to know is how to show up as that list

Answer
There is only one way I would do this program, and that requires Java1.5+ because that level of java has the Collections framework.

Whether you write a Scanner themed program or let the main() bring in the values it's up to you. To let main() grab the input requires the program compiles before you can test it. But, let's say you compiled, then the run command would be.

java NumCount 13 45 16 14 [return]

here is a method() using a lot of the new Collections framework and String.formatter();

=====================

private ArrayList<String> slotter( String s ) {
String delinter = (s.indexOf(",") > 0) ? "," : " ";
String[] ss = s.split( delinter );
ArrayList<Integer> al = new ArrayList<Integer>();
for( int i = 0; i< ss.length; i++)
al.add( Integer.parseInt(ss[i]) );

Collections.sort(al);

ArrayList<String> all = new ArrayList<String>();
all.add("[" + al.size() +"]");

for (Integer integer : al) {
String sfmt = String.format("%3d freq: %2d", integer,
Collections.frequency(al, integer));
all.add(sfmt);
}
String proof = "";
for (String string : all) {
proof += string + ", ";
}
int lastComma = proof.lastIndexOf(",");
proof = proof.substring(0,lastComma);
System.out.println( proof );

return all;
}
============
to play with it, you should write a class with a Scanner, then Scanner calls the method.

String s = scanner.nextLine();
ArrayList<String> outp = slotter(s);
for(String string : outp)
System.out.println(
string);

what does ct scan stand for?

i was wondering what the ct in ct scan stands for and is it the same as a cat scan

Answer
CAT stands for Computerised Axial Tomography, CT is exactly the same but but just easier to say and that's a fact.

It uses X-rays but the source moves (tomography) around the body (axial) and the results are fed into a computer not film, the body moves slowly through the scanner and a scan is taken every centimetre depending on the part of the body that is being scanned.

The computer can then present the scan as a 'slice' or build up a 3D image depending on what's required.

I have to do ppt on MRI scan.Please give info which is easy to understand.
What is MRI?How do MRI Scanners work and its principle.MRI uses and applications.What other slides can I incluse?

Answer
The principle behind the use of MRI machines is that they make use of the fact that body tissue contains lots of water (and hence protons) which gets aligned in a large magnetic field. Each water molecule has two hydrogen nuclei or protons. When a person is inside the powerful magnetic field of the scanner, the average magnetic moment of many protons becomes aligned with the direction of the field. A radio frequency current is briefly turned on, producing a varying electromagnetic field. This electromagnetic field has just the right frequency, known as the resonance frequency, to be absorbed and flip the spin of the protons in the magnetic field. After the electromagnetic field is turned off, the spins of the protons return to thermodynamic equilibrium and the bulk magnetization becomes re-aligned with the static magnetic field. During this relaxation, a radio frequency signal (electromagnetic radiation in the RF range) is generated, which can be measured with receiver coils.

Information about the origin of the signal in 3D space can be learned by applying additional magnetic fields during the scan. This is the idea of K-space, 3d image compiled from multiple 2d images. This 3d image can also produce images in any plane of view. The image can be rotated and manipulated by the doctor to be better able to detect tiny changes of structures within the body. These fields, generated by passing electric currents through gradient coils, make the magnetic field strength vary depending on the position within the magnet. Because this makes the frequency of the released radio signal also dependent on its origin in a predictable manner, the distribution of protons in the body can be mathematically recovered from the signal, typically by the use of the inverse Fourier transform.

Protons in different tissues return to their equilibrium state at different relaxation rates. Different tissue variables, including spin density, T1 and T2 relaxation times, and flow and spectral shifts can be used to construct images. By changing the settings on the scanner, this effect is used to create contrast between different types of body tissue or between other properties, as in fMRI and diffusion MRI.

MRI contrast agents may be injected intravenously to enhance the appearance of blood vessels, tumors or inflammation. Contrast agents may also be directly injected into a joint in the case of arthrograms, MRI images of joints. Unlike CT, MRI uses no ionizing radiation and is generally a very safe procedure. Nonetheless the strong magnetic fields and radio pulses can affect metal implants, including cochlear implants and cardiac pacemakers. In the case of cochlear implants, the US FDA has approved some implants for MRI compatibility. In the case of cardiac pacemakers, the results can sometimes be lethal, so patients with such implants are generally not eligible for MRI.

Since the gradient coils are within the bore of the scanner, there are large forces between them and the main field coils, producing most of the noise that is heard during operation. Without efforts to damp this noise, it can approach 130 decibels (dB) with strong fields.

MRI is used to image every part of the body, and is particularly useful for tissues with many hydrogen nuclei and little density contrast, such as the brain, muscle, connective tissue and most tumors.

MRI scans require a magnetic field with two properties, uniform field density and strength. The magnetic field cannot vary more than 1/10,000 of 1% and field strength ranges(depending on the scanner) from 0.2 to 3 tesla in strength in currently clinically used scanners, with research scanners investigating higher field strengths such as 7 tesla. The lower field strengths can be achieved with permanent magnets, which are often used in "open" MRI scanners, for claustrophpobic patients. Higher field strengths can be achieved only with superconducting magnets.

Windows Vista or keep Windows XP Home?

Q. What's your opinion?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of Vista?

.

Answer
Advantages:
Really fast response time
Support for a lot of drivers automatically installed (LAN/Audio/Scanner/Printer)
Internet got faster (Ping on speed test went from 18ms to 10ms)
Aero looks pretty cool (Not a stat, but my opinion)
Has its own security
Partitioning tool!!!
Sidebar has many features and clock is very handy
Windows Calender and Windows media center
Fast sleep and resume
Enhanced Video Quality
Live taskbar thumbnails
Parental controls
Encryption features
Flip and flip 3d window switching (I personally love this )
Games explorer
Windows search, Welcome center, Photo gallery, Sync center and Self-healing system

Disadvantages:
Not as many applications supported as XP, but generally ok (and will get better)
Cant use Visual Styles i.e. Msstyles.

----

Vista Advantages

One of the major factors in creating Vista was to increase the level of security for Internet using, file sharing and downloads. Although no computer security sytem is full proof, the Vista operating system has received great ratings so far.

It allows for users to set up a password or keyword code before anything new can be installed on the computer, thus keeping down the levels of spyware, adware and spam that can be âsecretlyâ installed on your computer.

Another advantage to Vista is the increase in graphics interface programs available. Of course the level and number of programs will be different depending on which type of Vista program you purchase, as some graphics programs are meant for home users while others are meant for business users.

The Vista operating system also allows for easier file sharing and computer to computer technology, with added programs making it easier to communication between computers, but with plenty of security to keep this sharing from increasing the level of exposure to viruses.

Vista Disadvantages

Of course there are always disadvantages to a new operating system. The biggest disadvantage to the new Vista operating system is the incompatability with older operating systems and accessories. Many computer experts claim that older printers, software, digital cameras and video game equipment cannot function properly with Vista.

Another major downfall that many have noted are the more restrictive licensing terms to install the Vista system as well as Digital Rights management technology. This may make it nearly impossible to share a copy of the Windows upgrade, meaning you will most definitely have to purchase it on your own. It also means that it is almost impossible to copy a piece of graphics or digital media that is copyrighted.


----


I found the following information on some web-sites, it describes my thoughts about Vista as well. I have Vista installed on 3 computers - but I have Windows XP installed on the same machines also. I mostly use Windows Vista unless I am composing music.

The only downside I see of using Vista is the number of applications that support it.

Microsoft will soon stop supporting Windows XP, if it hasn't already, which means that all of the effort of creating fixes will go to Windows Vista.

Has anyone had a level 2 ultrasound? Can you explain?

Lis

NOT A 3D. Just a normal scan that is more detailed and they go through thoroughly looking for defects etc. and give you a better picture of what is going on with your child...I am just a bit nervous about an appt I have on Wednesday.

Answer
I'm assuming you mean the 20 week one? Here in UK we call that anomaly scan. The scan is a routine one offered to all pregnant women about 20 weeks into their pregnancy and is designed to screen for any potential problems with the organs, skeleton, skin and development. Some places can also tell you the sex.

This is an enjoyable scan for most parents and the likelihood of a problem is small- in less than 2% of scans we detect a problem and in most of those the problem is minor. Some major problems can also be detected at previous scans so if all looked healthy at your 12 week scan, and you've not had any problems since, then chances are high your baby is fine.

The scan itself is like all ultrasounds- performed by a qualified doctor, midwife or sonographer ina darkened room, where ultrasound jelly is applied to your abdomen then the scanner placed on your bump to give the image on screen. The scan lasts about half an hour, and you'll be given pictures of your baby afterwards.

Some places say you need a full bladder, but I don't recommend this after 16 weeks as it can actually obscure the view.

Good luck and congratulations on your baby.

Which of these 2 laptops is the best i really want both ?

Thanks for the help any answers are appreciated because i dont want to buy the wrong laptop at this price. I'm currently using Windows vista and its good but i wouldn't mind going to Mac but i do use msn messenger alot and im not sure how well it works.

Answer
<sigh> Mac fanatics truly have the least computer knowledge, in comparison to the Linux & Windows fanatics.

Having the blu-ray drive shouldn't be a good reason for purchasing the computer unless you really need the extra storage. The discs are expensive, and are harder to find. I mean, take a look at DVD discs. There are DVD writers nowadays which can write DVDs faster than 16x (write-once) and 4x (re-writable), yet stores usually only sell 16x and 4x discs.

As far as viruses & trojans go on the Mac, it is true that you might not encounter one (or one that can actually do some damaga). HOWEVER, that does not mean that it is bulletproof. Linux isn't bulletproof either. If I was given an Assembler & the programming information for the Mac, I could easily write some really nice destructive trojans & viruses for it - if I wanted to. (People who write malware should be shot.) Deployment would be easy, because Mac users download copyrighted software via point-to-point networks just like Windows users.
(The biggest problem with Windows users is that they use the Administrator account exclusively, rather than using a seperate regular account for day-to-day work. Even if a virus scanner finds something, most malware won't be able to install without administrator access.)

The Mac has a better operating system, but it does not have the same amount of hardware & software available.
If you buy a Mac, then you have to spend time getting used to the new OS, though it shouldn't take too long.
You can run most regular Windows programs with a Windows emulator (though the programs run slower) and I don't think that you you'll have any problems with MSN messenger.

On the other hand:
You're already familiar and happy with Vista, which is significantly worse (performance & compatibility with older software) than the older XP, so that's a plus. The Vista laptop has a larger screen, and for the most part has more bang for the buck (or in your case, British pound <grin>).

Of course, if you don't play 3D games and don't use any specialty software, then you can always install Linux on the laptop. You can try out a Linux distribution for free by downloading a Live CD image and burning it to a CD. The Live CD doesn't write anything to your hard drive, so you can try out Linux without disturbing anything on your computer.

All 3 operating systems have enough software for regular work like word processing, video software, etc.
So, it comes down to what you're already comfortable with, and hardware features. I guess that means the Vista computer, and you always have the option of using Linux. Heck, you can have both Linux and Vista on your hard drive, or even boot Linux from from a flash drive when you want to use it.

How do game designers do 3D character modeling?

Sly Cooper

Is it just all writing code or is there some sort of 3D photoshop-like tool to do it?

Answer
They first discuss what the character should look like in a meeting with a 2d artist. The artist might make quick sketches to try to see if they are on the right track. From there the artist will make several variations to see which direction is most accurate . They may repeat this process a few times depending on how important the character is in the game. Towards the end of the process, they'll draw the same charter in different posses and situations to get a more polished idea.

When that's all settled they may either have a 3d model made of the character and then digitize it with a 3d scanner. If they're more low end, they most likely will just have the 3d artist recreate it using the drawings as reference.

The artist will use programs like 3D Studio Max, Maya or Lightwave. If they're very high end they may have their own proprietary software .

The next step is rigging the character. This is making a skeleton control system in the character. Think of it as virtual bones. They pull the hand and the arm bends to accommodate it. Like a puppet. Once that's all done they will make low polygon versions of the character so it can move quickly in a video game. The high polygon detailed model will be used for pre-rendered cut scene animations, opening sequences and commercials.

I am quite the CS5 n00b :P
i have the nets - 6 sides
all i want to know is how to virtually fold it up and construct the shape on the computer

Answer
The true answer is simple: You CANNOT convert a 2D image into a 3D representation [full stop].
Photoshop, nor Illustrator, is good at that either: it tries to interprete a 2D image to "extract" the third dimension (the depth), but this is NEVER correct.
The only way to create a mesh (or a shape) in 3D is to use a 3D software (like 3DS Max), and use 2 2d images (ie Front and Profile) to recreate the 3D shape. Even this is not good enough: you do not have the "hidden dimensions" (the back, the other side!).
To TRULY make a 3D shape, you need 6 images (the faces of a cube), or use a 3D scanner...

How can we make , our sculpture of face by help of computer .?

Heights!

kindly tell step by step .
Sir but not like this ..

If you stick your head in a bucket of cement that should work.

How you get your face into the computer is either you model it (lot of work) or you have access to a 3D laser scanner. That is fairly easy, can however still be time consuming if you want to put a number of scans together. If there is a university where you live, check out their engineering or art department if they have one. If not forget about it, unless you happen to be really rich, it's going to be more expensive than a new car.

Before you start see that you know you have access to some way to print it or get it milled. Make sure you know the requirement for the mesh and make sure you have access to the appropriate programs which generate the correct mesh.

Unless you have access to everything (e.g. you are at university and it has the equipment) it will be faster and easier and cheaper if you do body casting and make a mold of your face. How to do this has been explained in this forum many times, there are websites and books, so you should have no problems finding it out if you are serious about it.

how to create a 3d model of a guitar?

Paul

i want to create a 3d model of a guitar. what ways are there to help me create it with the software i have, as in importing photo files or a scanning the guitar itself?

Answer
if you meant to design 3D guitar on computer, you could simple collect measurements and re draw image in 3D editor like Sketchup

could be use to take photos and place visually into rendered object of guitar body

if you meant to actually make model as life size copy,
that would require laser scanner and printer

is it possible to measure what costume i need with LASER?

diopsidez

i n info about a mashine what is able to measure what costume best fits a man using laser

Answer
I suppose a CMM could do the trick. Google 3D scanner. It's expensive, and certainly outweighs the cost of a tape measure or a piece of string.
