An Evaluation of Lower Facial Micro Expressions as an Implicit QoE Metric for an Augmented Reality Procedure Assistance Application.
(2020)Augmented reality (AR) has been identified as a key technology to enhance worker utility in the context of increasing automation of repeatable procedures. AR can achieve this by assisting the user in performing complex and ... -
Examining the replicability of contemporary technology education research
(Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2021-04-26)Discourse in psychological science concerning the replication crisis is growing, with typically cited indicators including scientific fraud, the use of questionable research practices and the failure of published effects ... -
An exploration into the criteria used in assessing design activities with adaptive comparative judgment in technology education.
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-08)The use of design assignments for teaching, learning, and assessment is considered a signature of technology education. However, there are difficulties in the valid and reliable assessment of features of quality within ... -
Exploring the effects of immersive virtual reality environments on sensory perception of beef steaks and chocolate
(MDPI, 2021-05)Virtual reality (VR) technology is emerging as a tool for simulating different eating environments to better understand consumer sensory response to food. This research explored the impact of different environmental contexts ... -
Exploring the prototypical definitions of intelligent engineers held by Irish and Swedish higher education engineering students
(SAGE, 2021-03-12)Males are generally overrepresented in higher education engineering. However, the magnitude of this variance differs between countries and engineering fields. Evidence associated with the field-specific ability beliefs ... -
First results from the REAL-time transient acquisition backend (REALTA) at the Irish LOFAR station
(ESO/EDP Sciences, 2021-10-28)Modern radio interferometers such as the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) are capable of producing data at hundreds of gigabits to terabits per second. This high data rate makes the analysis of radio data cumbersome and ... -
Framing the constructive alignment of design within technology subjects in general education.
(Springer, 2020-05-27)Design is core element of general technology education internationally. While there is a degree of contention with regards to its treatment, there is general consensus that the inclusion of design in some form is important, ... -
Green IoT for eco-friendly and sustainable smart cities: future directions and opportunities
(Springer, 2021-08-17)The development of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology and their integration in smart cities have changed the way we work and live, and enriched our society. However, IoT technologies present several challenges such ... -
Improved type III solar radio bust detection using congruent deep learning models
(2023-06)Solar flares are energetic events in the solar atmosphere that are often linked with solar radio bursts (SRBs). SRBs are observed at metric to decametric wavelengths and are classified into five spectral classes (Type ... -
Introducing PyCross: PyCloudy rendering of shape software for pseudo 3D ionisation modelling of nebulae.
(Elsevier, 2020-04-29)Research into the processes of photoionised nebulae plays a significant part in our understanding of stellar evolution. It is extremely difficult to visually represent or model ionised nebula, requiring astronomers to ... -
Investigating the effect of engineering student's spatial ability and expertise on general complex problem solving
(Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2021-04-26)Spatial ability is attributed to success in STEM disciplines and is outlined as a component of general cognitive ability through the Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) model of human intelligence. Research in spatially orientated ... -
The motivations and perceptions of practicing teachers undertaking technology education research: a work in progress report from an exploratory case study
(Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus, 2021-04-26)Technology education (TE) is a transient area of study. Few other subject areas require such levels of up-skilling similar to that of technology teachers in order for them to stay current and aligned with the developments ... -
