Indoor service robots need perception that is robust, more privacy-friendly than RGB video, and feasible on embedded hardware. We present a camera-free 2D LiDAR object detection pipeline that encodes short-term temporal context by stacking three consecutive scans as RGB channels, yielding a compact YOLOv8n …

Public charging points are essential for the transition to electric mobility, but there is a lack of knowledge on electric vehicle (EV) drivers’ perceptions of explicit social norms regarding the appropriate usage of these shared charging points. Communicating to EV drivers how other EV drivers believe …

This paper emphasizes the importance of rethinking the concept of expressiveness and how we approach itin higher music education (HME). It highlights that current teaching practices often focus on acoustic elements of performance, while overlooking the visual ones, despite evidence that ancillary gestures, …

Chronische lage rugpijn (CLBP) is een veelvoorkomend en langdurig gezondheidsprobleem. CLBP gaat vaak gepaard met veranderingen in perceptie en cognitie, wat invloed kunnen hebben op hoe de omgeving wordt waargenomen. Aangezien gewichtsperceptie afhankelijk is van zowel visuele als haptische informatie, …

This paper examines the complex relationship between tattooing and tourism, questioning whether the global spread of indigenous tattoo practices represents cultural appreciation or appropriation. Focusing on Polynesian traditions, particularly Māori tāmoko and Samoan tatau, the study explore show these …

Exercise-induced muscle fatigue can aject older people's gait and hence their fall risk. However, non-homogeneous gait adaptations have been shown (1), questioning whether these are caused by a direct eject of fatigue or by compensatory strategies to account for (perception of) fatigue. This study aimed …

The document is about the development of a VR experience in Unreal Engine 5, focused on the sense of scale. The research covers interior design for an environment, developing digital fashion assets along with a custom sculpted metahuman character. All of that wrapping up into a storyline to be experience …

This thesis focuses on the design and development of an emotion-evoking humanoid creature design for Morpheus Labs, to facilitate the creation of a horror VR experience in Unreal Engine 5. The project focuses on the client’s lack of knowledge about creating an effective and emotionally impactful design, …
