Google Tech Talks March, 24 2008 ABSTRACT Yang Li – RESEARCH SCIENTIST Pervasive or ubiquitous computing (ubicomp) applications can support people’s everyday activities in the physical world by leveraging advances in sensor technologies and computing infrastructures. Designing ubicomp applications is challenging because our everyday activities are more complex, dynamic and less structured than the tasks supported by traditional desktop computing. Ubicomp design is difficult, time-consuming, and requires a high level of technical expertise, especially with sensor technologies. To address this, I created a set of rapid prototyping tools and frameworks. My early work with Topiary introduces high-level abstractions, such as maps and scenarios, for designers to easily model location contexts and specify location-based behaviors. Topiary also allows a design to be tested in the field via a Wizard of Oz approach, without deploying a location sensor infrastructure. My recent work is focused on activity-based ubicomp prototyping, a process for enabling long-term activities (such as keeping fit)—a larger unit for design than the tasks that are the focus of traditional design. To support such a process, I created ActivityDesigner, a system that allows designers to create functional prototypes of ubicomp applications based on field observations, and easily deploy and test these prototypes in situ.

3D Systems rapid prototyping technology used by GM designers and engineers to fabricate almost anything they can imagine has also enabled the skilled trades technicians from UAW Local 160 that work in the shop to do some innovating of their own.

ThingLab in London shows off their latest work with the ZPrinter 450.

it is i think 8inX10in in color and is of Pinocchio and Gepetto in Gepetto’s work shop. it is in 3D i am not sure of the age but i have not been able to find one like it anywhere

Printing Ceramics features the work of the Solheim Rapid Prototyping/ Rapid Manufacturing Lab at the University of Washington’s Mechanical Engineering Department, specifially the work of Professor Mark Ganter, as well as the experimental art of Doctoral Student Meghan Trainor of the University of Washington’s Center for Digital Arts and Experimental Media [DXARTS]. This video will be shown at the Ester M. Klein Art Gallery’s FAB show opening Friday, May 15 in Philadelphia.

rapid prototyping machine at work. making the zafar mahal model

need to research artists for my A-Level art and i dont know any artists…
