A new imaging system produces 3-D models of monuments using unmanned aircraft
To develop this system, University of Granada researchers used an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which is an aircraft without a human pilot onboard.
This system produces a realistic reproduction of architectural models at a low cost.
University of Granada researchers have developed a 3D imaging system that scans 3D models of historical buildings using data obtained from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)–an aircraft without a human pilot onboard. This is the first 3D imaging system to combine (...)

Scientists create a new application for painting layer dating
University of Granada researchers have used this technique to analyse the paintings in the Palacio de la Madraza in Granada, Spain, built during the Nasrid Dynasty's
New scientific advances made at the University of Granada in the field of Heritage Science have allowed the characterization of various historical pictorial material, the study of alteration processes and the identification of interactions between paint components. The researchers used new applications based on multivariate techniques to analyze the spectral (...)

Playability or what a video game must feature to be successful
Researchers at the University of Granada have created a video game that will serve as a model to assess all aspects related to video games; it has also established a conceptual framework that will allow experts to assess players’ experiences. The researchers based their study on their own experiences in previous projects where they developed educational resources and video games aimed at educational environments
What are the characteristics that a video game must have to be (...)

Spanish Researchers 'Train' A Computer To Classify Pictures And Videos Basing On The Elements That They Contain
At present, computer search and classification of images is made basing on the name of the file, folder or on features as date or size, but the visual information contained was never used for classification purposes. This pioneer technique developed by the University of Granada allows to classify pictures or images depending on whether individuals or specific objects are present in such images
University of Granada researchers have developed a new computer technique that allows (...)

Scientists develop an 'intelligent car' able to learn from his owner’s driving and warn him in case of accident hazard
Scientists from six European countries, including Spain, have developed a new computer system so called DRIVSCO that allows vehicles to learn from the behaviour of their drivers at the wheel, in such a way that they can detect if a driver presents an “unusual behaviour” in a curve or an obstacle on the road and generates signals of alarm which warn him on time to react.Un like other similar projects, DRIVSCO goes far beyond a (...)

A new computer simulator allows to design military strategies based on ants’ movements
A researcher of the University of Granada has designed a new system for the mobility of military troops within a battlefield based on the mechanisms used by ant colonies to move using a commercial videogame.This work, developed at the department of Computer Architecture and Technology of the UGR, has designed several algorithms that permit to look for the best route path (this is, to find the better route to satisfy certain criteria) within a particular (...)
