Robots with 3D Vision Work Like Humans at Oslo Business Forum Robots with 3D vision work like humans at Oslo Business Forum Pick-it, Intek, and Zivid to demonstrate the latest in robotics and machine vision solutions during OBF where Barack Obama will speak. OSLO, Norway, September 13, 2018 – Zivid, the 3D machine vision camera company, with partners Intek and Pick-it, are bringing collaborative robots, 3D color vision and advanced algorithms together at the Oslo Business Forum on September 26th. Barack Obama will speak at the conference where business leaders and decision makers focus on the future of technology advancement and how to create sustainable businesses in a digital era. Participants at Oslo Business Forum can enjoy various collaborative robots from Intek, a specialist in robotics solutions. Demos include ABB's dual-arm Yumi, paired with human-like robot eyes from Zivid. Pick-it provides the vision software which guides robots to perform tasks like picking, placing, and assembly based on 3D machine vision. "Together with our partners, Zivid will demonstrate how robots now can perform more advanced automation tasks and discuss the impact of robot automation for businesses in Industry 4.0," said Henrik Schumann-Olsen, CTO and CMO at Zivid. “With human-like 3D robot vision, smart vision software and flexible robot solutions, we enable collaborative robot and automation tasks that previously wasn’t possible”. “In order to get more robots in medium and small sized factories, we need to give them the ability to see, recognize and pick any possible object in their environment.” says Bert Willaert, CTO at Pick-it. “Similar to humans, we provide easy teaching of new objects by just showing them to the Pick-it system. The Zivid 3D camera gives quality data, enabling Pick-it to robustly recognize where objects are and precisely guide the robot picking.” Availability The Zivid One 3D color camera is available via distributors and system integration partners, or directly from [email protected].

  • Arab-Israeli Peace Agreements Eli E
    Arab-Israeli Peace Agreements Eli E. Hertz Between 1993 and 2001, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and the Palestinian Authority (PA) signed six agreements with Israel and conducted countless meetings and summits to bring about a lasting peace between them. Each Israeli concession was met with Palestinian non-compliance and escalating violence. Six times, Palestinians failed to honor their commitments and increased their anti-Israeli aggressions. Finally, they broke every promise they made and began an all- out guerrilla war against Israel and its citizens. The failure of the Palestinian leadership to be earnest and trustworthy stands in stark contrast to the statesmanship exhibited by Israel’s peace partners in the region: the late Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and the late Jordanian King Hussein, both of whom honored their agreements. Although Israel succeeded in reaching historic peace agreements with Egypt and Jordan, when the time came to negotiate with the Palestinians in the territories, the Israelis discovered the Palestinian Arabs were unable or unwilling to choose peace or honor their given word. Despite numerous agreements, the pattern has always been the same: The Palestinians violate the conditions and commitments of virtually every agreement they sign. The Camp David Accords The 1979 Camp David Accords brought peace between Israel and Egypt. Because of Egypt’s key leadership role in the Arab world and the clauses in the peace treaty relating to Palestinian autonomy, the Camp David Accords were a breakthrough which offered a framework for a comprehensive settlement. The Palestinians, however, failed to respond positively to this window of opportunity. On March 26, 1979, Israel and Egypt took the first step toward a peace agreement between the Arab world and Israel when they signed the historic Camp David Accords on the White House lawn.

RYDER SMITH TO BE FEATURED IN THE LINCOLN CENTER THEATER PRODUCTION OF “OSLO” a new play by J.T. ROGERS directed by BARTLETT SHER PREVIEWS BEGIN THURSDAY, JUNE 16 OPENING NIGHT IS MONDAY, JULY 11 AT THE MITZI E. NEWHOUSE THEATER Lincoln Center Theater (under the direction of André Bishop) has announced that Michael Aronov, Adam Dannheisser, Jennifer Ehle, Daniel Jenkins, Dariush Kashani, Jefferson Mays, Daniel Oreskes, Henny Russell, Joseph Siravo, and T. Ryder Smith will be featured in the cast of its upcoming production of OSLO, a new play by J.T. Rogers, directed by Bartlett Sher. Commissioned by Lincoln Center Theater, OSLO begins performances Thursday, June 16 and will open Monday, July 11 at the Mitzi E. Newhouse Theater (150 West 65 Street). Additional casting will be announced at a later date. It’s 1993. The world watches the impossible: Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Palestinian Liberation Organization Chairman Yasser Arafat, standing together in the White House Rose Garden, signing the first ever peace agreement between Israel and the PLO. How were the negotiations kept secret? Why were they held in a castle in the middle of Norway? And who are these mysterious negotiators? A darkly comic epic, OSLO tells the true, but until now, untold story of how one young couple, Norwegian diplomat Mona Juul (to be played by Jennifer Ehle) and her husband social scientist Terje Rød-Larsen (to be played by Jefferson Mays), planned and orchestrated top-secret, high-level meetings between the State of Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization, which culminated in the signing of the historic 1993 Oslo Accords.

    Across the North Sea and Back Again A Comparative Study between the Cults of St. Olav and St. Edmund Samuel Patrick Bidwell Master Thesis in Nordic Viking and Medieval Studies 60 Credits Department of Linguistics and Scandinavian Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Oslo May 2017 i Across the North Sea and Back Again: A Comparative Study between the Cults of St. Olav and St. Edmund (Pictured together, from left to right, is St. Olav, identifiable by his battle-axe and St. Edmund, King of East Anglia, with the arrow of his martyrdom. This is a fourteenth century depiction of the royal martyr saints on a rood screen in Catfield Church, Norfolk) ii © Samuel Patrick Bidwell 2017 Across the North Sea and Back Again: A Comparative Study between the Cults of St. Olav and St. Edmund Samuel Patrick Bidwell http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo iii Abstract The medieval cult of saints community was a dense, pervasive network that spread across the vast expanse of Latin Christendom. Saints were international in nature and as such could be easily transported to other geographical regions and integrated into the local culture. This thesis comparatively analyses the cults of St. Olav and St. Edmund and their respective primary hagiographical texts. The aim of this study is to determine to what extent Archbishop Eystein Erlendsson constructed his twelfth century text, Passio et miracula Beati Olavi, with reference to the hagiographical motifs surrounding the cult of St. Edmund and its central manuscript, Passio Sancti Edmundi. The interconnectedness of the cults of these royal martyr saints will be discussed in relation to dynastic promotion and royal patronage, their portrayal as both saints and warriors, shared miracles and exile.

  • Oslo’ Historic — and Thrilling
    Theater review ‘Oslo’ historic — and thrilling ● By Jim Lowe Staff Writer ● Oct 1, 2018 Front from left, Israeli Uri Savir (Matthew Cohn) and Palestinian Ahmed Quirie (Tom Mardirosian) square off, while Israelis Ron Pundak (Max Samuels) and Yair Hirschfield (Todd Cerveris) look on helplessly. Photo by Kata Sasvari WHITE RIVER JUNCTION – While historical theater can be dry, “Oslo,” J.T. Rogers’ re-creation of the story behind the 1993 Oslo Accords that brought Israel and the Palestinians together for the first time, is less documentary than mystery-thriller. In fact, it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play and the 2016-17 New York Drama Critics’ Circle award for Best Play — for a sweep of the 2016-2017 awards season. And testament to Northern Stage’s exciting production, currently being presented at the Barrette Center for the Arts, is that, despite knowing the script, Saturday’s performance left this reviewer on tenterhooks as events neared their climax. “Oslo” is based on the little-known story behind the 1993 Accords. An inspired married couple of mid-level Norwegian diplomats decided, against the established protocols, to attempt to broker a peace agreement. Against all odds, Terje Rød-Larsen and Mona Juul were able to convince the Palestinian Liberation Organization and the Israelis to send unofficial representatives to Norway for “back-channel negotiations” under the threat of arrest for the Israelis and death for the Palestinians. The Norwegians, who had to deal with their own country’s disapproval at risk of their careers, counted on the desperation of both parties.
