THE ARCHİTECTURE AND FASHİON DESİGN – An Examination of the Relationship between Fashion and Architecture Design in light of Technological Advancements
PublikacjaThe article focuses on the mutual relationship between two seemingly distant fields of art - architecture and fashion design. It describes a common basis for the process of creating art in the approach to both fashion and architecture. The following considerations, which are based on principles of composition, attempt to reach beyond just the form and analyze also context or perception. The article quotes famous creators and depicts...

Semi complex navigation with an active optical gesture sensor
PublikacjaThis paper presents the methods of diversified touchless interactions between a user and a mobile platform utilizing the optical gesture sensor. The sensor uses 8 photodiodes to measure the reflected light in the active mode (using embedded LEDs) or it measures shadows caused by fingers in the passive mode. Several algorithms were implemented: automatic mode switching, adaptive illumination level compensation, resolution improvements...

Influence of the Widespread Use of Corten Plate on the Acoustics of the European Solidarity Centre Building in Gdansk
PublikacjaThis paper describes the relationship between a strong architectural vision that is difficult to balance, and user expectations in terms of acoustics. The focus is on the use of corten steel as the dominant finishing material on façades and interiors to achieve an expressive, symbolic message through program-based design. The architectural premises justifying the adopted solutions are presented, especially the universality and...

Lighting requirements for pedestrian crossings - positive contrast
PublikacjaFor many years now in Poland there has been a large number of road accidents at pedestrian crossings during night periods [5, 11]. One of the technical solutions that can improve this condition is the use of proper lighting for pedestrian crossings. The designated pedestrian crossing should be visible in different weather conditions and at different times of the day. In case of night vision restrictions use artificial lighting...

Light-Modulated Sunscreen Mechanism in the Retina of the Human Eye
PublikacjaThe functioning of the human eye in the extreme range of light intensity requires a combination of the high sensitivity of photoreceptors with their photostability. Here, we identify a regulatory mechanism based on dynamic modulation of light absorption by xanthophylls in the retina, realized by reorientation of pigment molecules induced by trans–cis photoisomerization. We explore this photochemically switchable system using chromatographic...

Collaborative Exploration of Trees by Energy-Constrained Mobile Robots
PublikacjaWe study the problem of exploration of a tree by mobile agents (robots) that have limited energy. The energy constraint bounds the number of edges that can be traversed by a single agent. We use a team of agents to collectively explore the tree and the objective is to minimize the size of this team. The agents start at a single node, the designated root of the tree and the height of the tree is assumed to be less than the energy...
