Approximate Number Sense Test

Source: Laboratory of Jonathan Flombaum—Johns Hopkins University A common carnival game is to ask people to guess the number of jellybeans packed into a jar. The chances that anyone will get the exact number right are low. But what about the chances that someone will guess 17 or 147,000? Probably even less than the chances of guessing the correct answer; 17 and 147,000 just seem irrational. Why? After all, if the beans cannot be taken out and counted one-at-a-time, how can someone tell that an...

Source: Laboratories of Nicholaus Noles and Judith Danovitch—University of Louisville Humans are different from other animals in many ways, but one of the abilities that sets humans apart is their advanced ability to understand other people and simulate their thoughts and feelings, even when the thoughts and feelings do not align with their own. In scientific terms, these abilities are referred to as theory of mind, and this understanding is necessary for activities like giving compliments,...

A technique for performing quantitative three-dimensional (3D) imaging for a range of fluid flows is presented. Using concepts from the area of Light Field Imaging, we reconstruct 3D volumes from arrays of images. Our 3D results span a broad range including velocity fields and multi-phase bubble size distributions.

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison

According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Dual-chamber implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) may improve detection of atrial fibrillation as well as differentiation of tachycardias. However, this advantage is undermined by complications associated with the second electrode, which is required in conventional dual chamber devices. Therefore, BIOTRONIK has developed a new electrode called the LinoxSMART S DX that, when used in conjunction with the Lumax DX ICD, offers dual-chamber detection without the risks associated with the...

Different implementations estimate spatial position through different inputs. Time-of-flight systems use distance measurements, structured-light systems project patterns onto a scene, and stereo systems compare paired images. These approaches all produce depth information, but they derive it from distinct measurement mechanisms. The selected approach determines how the camera captures three-dimensional variation for medical imaging and assessment.
Projected patterns and paired images provide spatial cues that reveal how surfaces vary in position. A structured-light system observes changes in an emitted pattern, while stereo vision uses corresponding information from two images. These cues supplement conventional color or grayscale views, allowing medical systems to represent body surfaces and anatomical form with three-dimensional information.
Depth information adds spatial awareness that color or grayscale images alone do not provide. It can support quantitative assessment by representing how far different points are from the camera and how surfaces vary in position. In medical settings, this additional dimension helps researchers and clinicians evaluate body geometry, positioning, movement, and anatomy more consistently.
A typical workflow captures depth data together with conventional color or grayscale imagery, then uses the combined information to assess spatial relationships or body geometry. Depending on the application, the resulting measurements can guide patient positioning, movement analysis, three-dimensional reconstruction, or an image-guided procedure. The camera therefore functions as a noncontact source of quantitative spatial information.
The camera can record body-surface position without requiring physical contact, allowing measurements to be collected as patients are positioned or move. Depth information makes spatial changes measurable and supports quantitative analysis of movement. This approach can also reduce reliance on physical markers, which is relevant when researchers need consistent monitoring across observations.
Three-dimensional depth data can show the spatial arrangement of a patient or anatomical surface, helping support positioning and image-guided procedures. It also provides information for reconstructing anatomy in three dimensions rather than relying only on flat images. These capabilities improve spatial awareness during medical assessment and can provide a more quantitative basis for monitoring or guidance.
