Abstract: A user selects a set of photographs from a trip through an environment that he or she desires to present to other people. A collection of photographs, including the set of photographs captured during the trip optionally augmented with additional photographs obtained from another collection, are combined with a terrain model (e.g., a digital elevation model) to extract information regarding the geographic location of each of the photographs within the environment. The collection of photographs are analyzed, considering their geolocation information as well as the photograph content to register the photographs relative to one another. This information for the photographs is compared to the terrain model in order to accurately position the viewpoint for each photograph within the environment. A presentation of the selected photographs within the environment is generated that displays both the selected photographs and synthetic data filled in beyond the edges of the selected photographs.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus embodying the method for fast convolution of a signal with a one-sided exponential function is disclosed. Additionally, a method and a system embodying the method for fast convolution of a signal with complex exponential function localized around an origin by an exponential function envelope utilizing the method and a system embodying the method for fast convolution of a signal with a one-sided exponential function is disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of bio-metric identification of persons according to the hand, by which the shape of the hand is scanned, evaluated and compared with the database of hand shapes, whereas the three-dimensional (3D) shape of the hand is scanned, this is analysed and a three-dimensional (3D) model of the hand is created, which is compared with the database of three-dimensional (3D) models of hand. The invention also relates to a device for biometric identification of persons according to the hand comprising a pad and a scanning device (2) coupled with a control and evaluating unit, while the pad comprises a positioning depression (1) in the shape of a hand, while the positioning depression (1) is whole situated in the field of view of the scanning device (2) and in the area of impact of radiation from a source (21) of light.
