Vector Field Processing

This post originated as teaching material for the DDG course at École Polytechnique to calculate trivial connections on discrete surfaces for vector field processing and electrostatics.

Conformal Parametrization

This post originated as teaching material for the DDG course at École Polytechnique to calculate the harmonic and conformal parameterization of an open mesh.

Surface Denoising

This post is the summary of the results for a project undertaken at ENS to implement and compare different denoising techniques of meshes.

Heart Rate Measurement through Computer Vision

For many applications in telemedicine or in a security context a contactless heart rate measurement can be great interest useful. Most of the conventional approaches use a wearable object like a chest belt or a special watch. In the mentioned cases, this is not always applicable. Therefore one is interested in methods, that can extract the heart rate from a video feed. This post gives a first overview how a code prototype for that could be build.

Make it Stand - Balancing Shapes for 3D-printing

Through the evolution of 3D-printers, the it has become more and more easy to produce prototypes of 3 dimensional shapes. In this project we developed our first software to produce shapes and printable objects for a 3D-printer. This project was part as a final project of the École Polytechnique course X-INF 574 Digital Representations and Analysis of Shapes

Reflection on the locomotion technique

In this post I will summarize the work on the virtual reality project and reflect a bit what I experienced in the implementation process. First of all I should point out that unity is an extremely powerful platform and is easy to use, when having some programming experience. All these things like collision, drag and mass otherwise would be difficult to implement.
