Hepatitis B core particles as a universal display model: a structure-function basis for development

1999

AbstractBecause it exhibits a remarkable capability to accept mutational intervention and undergo correct folding and self-assembly in all viable prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression systems, hepatitis B core (HBc) protein has been favored over other proposed particulate carriers. Structurally, the unusual α-helical organization of HBc dimeric units allows introduction of foreign peptide sequences into several areas of HBc shells, including their most protruding spikes. Progress toward full resolution of the spatial structure as well as accumulation of chimeric HBc-based structures has brought closer the knowledge-based design of future vaccines, gene therapy tools and other artificial par…

Designing Touchless Gestural Interfaces for Public Displays

Nell’ultimo decennio, molti autori hanno studiato la possibilità di utilizzare le interfacce a gesti come strumento innovativo per supportare l’interazione con i computer. Inoltre, le recenti innovazioni tecnologiche hanno permesso di installare display interattivi in ambienti privati e pubblici. Tuttavia, l’interattività di tali display è spesso basata sull’uso di touchscreen, mentre tecnologie come i dispositivi Kinect-like vengono adottate molto più raramente, soprattutto se si considera l’ambito dei display pubblici. Al giorno d’oggi, l’opportunità di studiare le interfacce touchless per i display pubblici è diventata concreta, e rappresenta il campo di studio di diversi ricercatori. L’…

Each section represents the vision of its author to describe the progress, potential, vision, and challenging issues in this field.

Lightfield recording and reconstruction by integral imaging

2011

Integral imaging is a rising 3D imaging technique that can be considered the incoherent version of holography. In integral imaging the multiperspective information of 3D scenes is stored in a 2D picture. Such picture is nothing but a sampling version of the lightfield emitted by the 3D scene. The recorded lightfield can be used for many purposes. One is the display of 3D color scenes to audiences or much more than one person. Other is the 3D display, with full parallax, in personal monitors, like the screen of a Smartphone, a tablet, or the monitor used by a surgeon in an endoscopic operation. Other important types of applications are connected with the topographic reconstruction, slice by …

A novel putative insect chitinase with multiple catalytic domains: hormonal regulation during metamorphosis

2002

0264-6021 (Print) Journal Article Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't; We have used differential display to identify genes that are regulated by juvenile hormone in the epidermis of the beetle Tenebrio molitor. One of the genes encodes T. molitor chitinase 5 (TmChit5), a chitinase possessing an unusual structure. Sequence analysis of TmChit5 identified five 'chitinase units' of approx. 480 amino acids with similarity to chitinase family 18. These units are separated by less conserved regions containing putative PEST (rich in proline, glutamic acid, serine and threonine) sequences, putative chitin-binding domains and mucin domains. Northern-blot analysis identified a single transcript of approx…

Developments in the use of baculoviruses for the surface display of complex eukaryotic proteins

2001

The ability to couple genotype to phenotype has proven to be of immense value in systems such as phage display and has allowed genes encoding novel functions to be selected directly from complex libraries. However, the complexity of many eukaryotic proteins places a severe constraint on successful display in Escherichia coli. This restriction could be resolved if a eukaryotic virus could be similarly engineered for display purposes. Preliminary data have suggested that the baculovirus Autographa californica, a multiple nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcMNPV) is a candidate for eukaryotic virus display because the insertion of peptides into the native virus coat protein, or the expression of for…

Integral Imaging Monitors with an Enlarged Viewing Angle

2015

Enlarging the horizontal viewing angle is an important feature of integral imaging monitors. Thus far, the horizontal viewing angle has been enlarged in different ways, such as by changing the size of the elemental images or by tilting the lens array in the capture and reconstruction stages. However, these methods are limited by the microlenses used in the capture stage and by the fact that the images obtained cannot be easily projected into different displays. In this study, we upgrade our previously reported method, called SPOC 2.0. In particular, our new approach, which can be called SPOC 2.1, enlarges the viewing angle by increasing the density of the elemental images in the horizontal …

Microscopic and macroscopic 3D imaging and display by integral imaging

2011

Integral imaging is a rising 3D imaging technique that can be considered the incoherent version of holography. In integral imaging the multiperspective information of 3D scenes is stored in a 2D picture. Such picture, composed by a set of elemental images, is obtained through a 2D array of microlenses. The elemental-images set can be used for many purposes. One is the display of 3D color scenes to audiences or much more than one person. Other is the 3D display, with full parallax, in personal monitors, like the screen of a smartphone, a tablet, or the monitor used by a surgeon in an endoscopic operation. Other important types of applications are connected with the topographic reconstruction…

Full-parallax immersive 3D display from depth-map cameras

2016

We exploit two different versions of the Kinect to make comparison of three-dimensional (3D) scenes displayed by proposed integral imaging (InI) display system. We attempt to show the difference between each version specifications and capacity. Furthermore, we illustrate our study result with some empirical imaging experiment in which the final result are displayed with full-parallax. Each demonstrated integral images can provide clear comparison results to the observer.
