Physical Computing - Exploring Computer Vision in Physical Computing

Fouad Sabry

Summary

What is Physical Computing
 
The term "physical computing" refers to the use of interactive systems that are able to perceive and react to the environment around them. However, despite the fact that this definition is sufficiently broad to include systems such as intelligent vehicle traffic control systems or factory automation processes, it is not typically used to define these kinds of products. Through a more expansive perspective, physical computing can be understood as an innovative paradigm for comprehending the connection that humans have with the digital environment. Handmade art, design, or do-it-yourself hobby projects that use sensors and microcontrollers to translate analog input to a software system and/or control electro-mechanical devices such as motors, servos, lighting, or other hardware are the most common examples of what the name "maker" refers to in practical applications.

Perpendicular Times - A New Reality

Michael Mathiesen

In previous books, I have put forth a new theory of time - in that time flows about the universe in waves. This has not been proven yet, but I'm confident it will be some day since everything else in the universe flows or comes out of wave energy - the odds are very good that time does as well. 
Since announcing this theory a couple years ago in a book called 'Time Waves', I also saw that time not only flows about the universe in waves, but that these waves flow at right angles or in a perpendiular orientation to all other waves because they, time waves, carry the elements of time that all other waves require to be a wave. The two fields interact in perpendicular fashion to create what Einstein calls Space/Time, but now it comes along with a completely new and more complete definition. 
But, it's also part of my theory that artificial intelligence is here at this time to play an important role so I asked Orac, my long-time AI assistant to confirm that my theory is accurate and he does in great detail. It's an historic moment for all and holds significant impacts on all our lives.
