Users will register by choosing a Space Guard Name then undergoing a simulated biometric scan.
Ideum is working with Lowell Observatory on an upcoming exhibition all about asteroid science. The entire exhibition is a fictional school, Space Guard Academy, where cadets learn all about asteroids and "rank up" as they participate in different interactive learning modules.
Ideum is developing 5 connected interactives as well as a student registration station and a system to track student scores and ranks. Look for more information and pictures in the near future. To learn more about Ideum's Creative Services, visit our website.
Mice, and now touchscreens, have become a daily part of our lives in the way we interact with computers. But what about people who lack the ability to use a mouse or touchscreen? Or situations where these would be impractical or outright dangerous?
My research addresses extreme human machine interaction ranging from investigating interaction issues for people with severe physical impairment to proposing new interaction techniques for combat aircraft pilots and automotive drivers, where the context itself imposes situational impairment. I have developed user model and investigated new modalities of interaction involving eye-gaze, head-movement and hand-gesture trackers. I have worked with Indian universities to improve quality of life of rural UK and Indian population as well as collaborated with a major defence company to exploit traditional 'accessibility features' for military combat aircrafts. I have invented new algorithms to simulate users’ interaction with an electronic screen and target prediction technology to facilitate human machine interaction.
This particular photo entry is a collage of our user survey, demonstration and exhibition. In the following paragraphs I have briefly described each photograph.
Picture 1: The top left photograph was taken at a rural old-age home at Mandi, India, where I conducted a survey on the exposure and limitation of modern interactive technologies of rural Indian population. Results from my survey was later published in a monograph published by Springer (www.springer.com/computer/hci/book/978-3-319-06165-8).
Picture 2:Technologies developed for elderly and disabled population often found important applications in special situations - the picture is showing me wearing a Eurofighter Typhoon (www.eurofighter.com/) helmet, which we are trying to improve by incorporating new modalities of interaction
Picture 3 to 8:We have demonstrated our technologies at many different conferences, exhibitions and user trial, where member of public and even children could use our system without any difficulty.
Picture 9:The picture was taken at IIT, Mandi as part of a project to explore use of eye gaze tracking to operate a dashboard while driving, so that drivers need not to take their hands off from steering wheel. Presently I am working with Jaguar Land Rover to further explore utility of eye gaze tracking interface in automotive environment.
Picture 10: The picture is showing my colleague using a eye gaze tracking glass while operating a flight simulator as part of a BAE Systems funded project.
First prototype of EXPERIFACE, a minimalist graphic user interface for mobile phones with a capacitive touchscreen. EXPERIFACE simplifies the user interface to 3 main panels, called PANES: HOME, MESSAGES and COMMUNITY, collating all relevant informations from the cloud into 3 main PANES.
This is the MESSAGING APP, with keyboard activated. The MESSAGING APP is a combined messaging tool which sends SMS by default, and it handles MMS, short EMAIL, and IM.
The background colour is customised here, as opposed to the default metallic hues.

Why should Volkswagen Bug owners get all the curves? Why do touchscreens have to be flat? Why are consumer electronics so much fun to take apart after they've lost their usefulness?
All these questions, and more, will be answered by the iPod touchDome 16GB!
In a super secret Apple laboratory somewhere in the middle of Central Ohio, this prototype sits on an ultra-modern, state-of-the-art, Earth-friendly, 100% recyclable display platform.

Historic Environment Record for H BUILDING, Malvern, UK
The building, having military purposes and designated locally as H building, sits on a former Government Research site in Malvern, Worcestershire at Grid Ref SO 786 447. This site was the home of the Telecommunications Research Establishment (TRE) from 1946. It has been owned by QinetiQ since 2001 and is in the process (October 2017 to February 2018) of being sold for redevelopment.
This unique building has at its heart a ‘Rotor’ bunker with attached buildings to house radar screens and operators as well as plant such as emergency generators. Twenty nine Rotor operational underground bunkers were built in great urgency around Britain to modernise the national air defence network, following the Soviet nuclear test in 1949. Two factors make H building’s construction and purpose unique; this prototype is the only Rotor bunker built above ground and it was the home to National Air Defence government research for 30 years.This example of a ROTOR bunker is unique instead of being buried, it was built above ground to save time and expense, as it was not required to be below ground for its research purpose.
H Building was the prototype version of the Rotor project R4 Sector Operations Centre air defence bunkers. Construction began in August 1952 with great urgency - work went on 24 hours a day under arc lights. The main bunker is constructed from cross bonded engineering bricks to
form walls more than 2 feet thick in a rectangle approximately 65ft x 50ft. The two internal floors are suspended from the ceiling. The original surrounding buildings comprise, two radar control and operator rooms, offices and machine plant.
The building was in generally good order and complete. The internal layout of the bunker remains as originally designed. The internal surfaces and services have been maintained and modernised over the 55 years since its construction (Figure 3). The first floor has been closed over.
There are some later external building additions around the periphery to provide additional accommodation.
In parts of the building the suspended floor remains, with 1950s vintage fittings beneath such as patch panels and ventilation ducts.
The building has been empty since the Defence Science & Technology Laboratories [Dstl] moved out in October 2008
As lead for radar research, RRE was responsible for the design of both the replacement radars for the Chain Home radars and the command and control systems for UK National Air Defence.
Project Rotor was based around the Type 80 radar and Type 13 height finder. The first prototype type 80 was built at Malvern in 1953 code named Green Garlic. Live radar feeds against aircraft sorties, were fed into the building to carry out trials of new methods plotting and reporting air activity
A major upgrade of the UK radar network was planned in the late 1950s – Project ‘Linesman’ (military) / ‘Mediator’ (civil) – based around Type 84 / 85 primary radars and the HF200 height finder. A prototype type 85 radar (Blue Yeoman) was built adjacent to H Building in 1959. live radar returns were piped into H Building.
Subsequently a scheme to combine the military and civil radar networks was proposed. The building supported the research for the fully computerised air defence scheme known as Linesman, developed in the 1960s, and a more integrated and flexible system (United Kingdom Air Defence Ground Environment or UKADGE) in the 1970s.
The building was then used for various research purposes until the government relinquished the main site to QinetiQ in 2001. Government scientists continued to use the building until 2008. Throughout its life access was strictly controlled by a dedicated pass sytem.
Notable civil spin-offs from the research in this building include the invention of touch screens and the whole UK Civil Air Traffic Control system which set the standard for Europe.
Chronology
1952 - Construction work is begun. The layout of the bunker area duplicates the underground version built at RAF Bawburgh.
1953 - Construction work is largely completed.
1954 - The building is equipped and ready for experiments.
1956-1958 - Addition of 2nd storey to offices
1957-1960 - Experiments of automatic tracking, novel plot projection systems and data management and communications systems tested.
1960-1970 - Project Linesman mediator experiments carried out including a novel display technique known as a Touch screen ( A World First)
TOUCHSCREEN
A team led by Eric Johnson in H building at Malvern. RRE Tech Note 721 states: This device, the Touch Sensitive Electronic Data Display, or more shortly the ‘Touch Display’, appears to have the potential to provide a very efficient coupling between man and machine. (E A Johnson 1966). See also patent GB 1172222.
Information From Hugh Williams/mraths
1980-1990 - During this period experiments are moved to another building and H building is underused.
1990-1993 - The building was re-purposed and the bunker (room H57) had the first floor closed over to add extra floor area.
2008- The bunker was used until late 2008 for classified research / Joint intelligence centre
2019 - Visual Recording of the buildings interior by MRATHS. Be means of a LIDAR scan and photographs being taken. The exterior was mapped with a drone to allow a 3D Image of the building to be created via Photogrammetry. This was created in Autodesk Photo Recap.
2020 - Building demolished as part of the redevelopment of the site.
Information sourced from MRATHS
Here it is again. This time with the front flap open showing what can be accessed there.
Thanks to more RAM being available and because of the headache I had with making Firefox do what I wanted it to, this now runs a full KDE desktop and Konqueror. KDE also allows nice seamless access to the contents of USB storage devices which can now be plugged in under the flap to the left.
Another thing which works nicely in KDE is Bluetooth, which is something I was intending to build in from the start.
Something which is not so good under KDE is the ability to configure and do certain things without a right mouse click.
See the original front picture and the updated internals picture for more information.
