[A_Llodio_Yermo] Documentación geométrica para la puesta en valor y difusión social del Santuario de Santa María del Yermo (Laudio/Llodio, Álava)

[ES] La iglesia de Santa María tiene una planta de unos 22x18 metros y cuenta con tres pórticos (sur, oeste y norte) así como una espadaña exenta. Adyacente al sudeste se encuentra la ermita de Santa Lucía. Las excavaciones arqueológicas de dos zonas de unos 6 x 3 metros en el interior y el exterior de la iglesia sirven como hilo conductor a las jornadas de puertas abiertas al público.

Interculturalidad y realidad aumentada: una colección de cuentos para trabajar en el aula

Este trabajo presenta un diagnóstico llevado a cabo en un aula de segundo de Educación Primaria con alto índice de inmigración, que se conocía con anterioridad por unas prácticas del Grado de Educación Primaria llevadas a cabo en esa escuela. A partir de los resultados de este diagnóstico se ha creado una colección de cuentos de las culturas existentes en el aula seleccionada. Además, en el cuento se integra como innovación el uso de la Realidad Aumentada y se pretende, también, fomentar entre el alumnado el gusto de la lectura desde el punto de vista intercultural, aspecto cada vez más visible en los centros de enseñanza actuales.

Exibição de Propaganda Personalizada com o uso de Realidade Aumentada

É apresentado como problema atual na área de Publicidade e Propaganda a exibição de conteúdo personalizado para nichos específicos. A propaganda acaba se concentrando nos produtos de maior sucesso, tendo como foco alguns públicos-alvo previamente determinados. Assim, o estudo pretende avaliar um novo canal para exibição de propaganda em nível individual, através das perspectivas da Cauda Longa e da Realidade Aumentada (R.A.). O ponto principal desse trabalho é, portanto, mostrar a quantidade de nichos existentes e sugerir uma personalização da propaganda a um nível praticamente individual, como uma ligação direta entre produto e consumidor, usando como suporte tecnológico a R.A. A partir da análise de trabalhos de Romero Tori, Paul Milgram, Ronald Azuma, Cláudio Kirner, Robson Siscouto, Lúcia Santaella, entre outros autores, foi feita uma avaliação dos principais pontos de interesse da tecnologia de Realidade Aumentada para profissionais da área do Design. Discorrendo não só sobre suas características como também identificando problemas e questionamentos atuais, tanto para esses profissionais como para o consumidor final. A tese se enquadra na linha de pesquisa de Design e Tecnologia ao passo que os profissionais desta área de conhecimento são responsáveis diretos por pensar as formas de interação de modo que sejam mais orgânicas e intuitivas para os usuários. Existe muito trabalho a ser realizado, no tocante à Ergonomia e Usabilidade, nas soluções que usam a Realidade Aumentada, principalmente na forma como se dá a sobreposição da informação digital ao ambiente real capturado pela câmera e sua manipulação pelo indivíduo.

Social networks and cooperative learning in a MOOC

MOOCs are changing the educational landscape and gaining a lot of attention in scientific literature. However, the pedagogical design of these proposals has been called into question. It is precisely MOOCs’ social aspect, i.e. the interaction between course participants and the support for learning processes that has become one of the main topics of interest. This article presents the results of a research project carried out at the University of the Basque Country, which focused in cooperative learning and the intensive use of social networks in a MOOC. Significant data was compiled through Likert-type surveys, revealing that the use of both external and internal social networks in a massive open online course is a factor that is evaluated positively by students. We argue that the use of social networks as a learning strategy in a MOOC has an influence on academic performance and on the students' success rate. Furthermore, the participants’ age also has a bearing on the social networks they use, and we have found that the younger members tend to work with external networks such as Twitter or personal blogs, whereas the older students are more inclined to use forums from the Chamilo or Ning platforms.

Virtual 3D (MUPAI Virtual 3D)

Virtual reality is currently considered a first-order resource for education and training. In this regard, artistic education, like other disciplines, is backing into this technology as a tool to overcome obstacles and contribute new ways of visualization and of providing information. And, in this case, the use of this technology presents enormous advantages for museums, especially, the more modest ones, which have few resources to disseminate and show their collections and works. Moreover, they have to resort to ingenious solutions to solve their difficulties. Therefore, the Pedagogic Museum of Children’s Art (MUPAI) backs into this technology to overcome some of the difficulties it encounters and to allow interested spectators to see its works, with great realism, and to visit its facilities anywhere in the world and at any time of the day. Hence, virtual reality unfolds new possibilities in the field of education that were inconceivable only a short time ago.

In search of reliable centimeter-level indoor positioning: a smartphone-based approach

This thesis describes the design and implementation of a reliable centimeter-level indoor positioning system fully compatible with a conventional smartphone. The proposed system takes advantage of the smartphone audio I/O and processing capabilities to perform acoustic ranging in the audio band using non-invasive audio signals and it has been developed having in mind applications that require high accuracy, such as augmented reality, virtual reality, gaming and audio guides. The system works in a distributed operation mode, i.e. each smartphone is able to obtain its own position using only acoustic signals. To support the positioning system, a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) of synchronized acoustic beacons is used. To keep the infrastructure in sync we have developed an Automatic Time Synchronization and Syntonization (ATSS) protocol with a standard deviation of the sync offset error below 1.25 μs. Using an improved Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) estimation approach (which takes advantage of the beacon signals’ periodicity) and by performing Non-Line-of-Sight (NLoS) mitigation, we were able to obtain very stable and accurate position estimates with an absolute mean error of less than 10 cm in 95% of the cases and a mean standard deviation of 2.2 cm for a position refresh period of 350 ms.

Innovation In Games

In this lecture we look at how innovation in games has moved from the creation of new genres, to the incorporation of new technology, that has unlocked new ways to play games. In particular we look at casual and social games, motion controllers, virtual reality, augmented reality, location-based games, mixed reality, and alternate reality.

TripColombia

TRIPCOLOMBIA es una organización que nace a partir del interés por realizar aportes significativos a los procesos tradicionales de difusión y conservación del patrimonio y la cultura de la nación. De esta manera, se decide realizar un modelo de negocio para implementar una aplicación móvil y un mapa impreso interactivo, que tengan como eje principal estrategias de gamificación , y a mediano plazo el desarrollo y la implementación de Realidad Aumentada (RA) y códigos QR directamente en las zonas de interés cultural. Dicha aplicación, buscará interconectar las TIC con los BIC, espacios competentes o complementarios a los BIC y entidades culturales circundantes, mediante la organización de redes interactivas y retroalimentadas.
