Young Major Professor: Clinton Jeffery, Ph.D. Committee Members: Terence Soule, Ph.D.; Robert Heckendorn, Ph.D. Department Administrator: Terence Soule, Ph.D. August, 2020 ii Authorization to Submit Thesis This thesis of Kevin Z. Young, submitted for the degree of Master of Science with a Major in Computer Science and titled \Unicon's OpenGL 2D and Integrated 2D/3D Graphics Implementation," has been reviewed in final form. Permission, as indicated by the signatures and dates below is now granted to submit final copies for the College of Graduate Studies for approval. Advisor: Clinton Jeffery, Ph.D. Date Committee Mem- bers: Terence Soule, Ph.D. Date Robert Heckendorn, Ph.D. Date Department Chair: Terence Soule, Ph.D. Date iii Abstract Writing an OpenGL implementation for Unicon's 2D facilities introduces an oppor- tunity to create an integrated 2D/3D graphics mode that is intuitive to the end user. The implementation must be backwards-compatible with existing Unicon 2D graphics programs. The completion of the project will result in the release of the OpenGL im- plementation in public beta. Evaluation of this implementation shows it be qualitatively and quantitatively robust. iv Acknowledgments I would like to acknowledge my parents for giving me to opportunity to pursue higher education.

  • Gamified 3D Orthopaedic Rehabilitation Using Low Cost and Portable Inertial Sensors
    Gamified 3D Orthopaedic Rehabilitation Using Low Cost and Portable Inertial Sensors Grigorios Kontadakis A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering. School of Electrical and Computer Engineering Laboratory of Distributed Multimedia Information Systems and Applications – TUC/MUSIC CHANIA 2018 Abstract Abstract This work introduces an innovative gamified rehabilitation platform comprising of a mobile game and a custom sensor placed on the knee, intended for patients that have undergone Total Knee Replacement surgery, in collaboration with the General Hospital in Chania. The application uses a single custom-made, light, portable and low-cost sensor node consisting of an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) attached on a lower limb in order to capture its orientation in space in real-time, while the patient is completing a physiotherapy protocol. An IMU measures and reports a body's specific force (accelerometer), angular rate (gyroscope), and sometimes the magnetic field surrounding the body (magnetometer). IMUs provide the leading technology used in wearable devices and are employed in this thesis as they meet the main design constraints of this framework, maximizing portability and minimizing cost. Previous work indicates that when multiple IMUs are employed, satisfactory rehabilitation exercise classification accuracy results are achieved based on three, two and one IMUs. Such results drive the further investigation of the challenging classification problem using just a single IMU in this thesis, enhancing maximum portability compared to multiple IMU systems, in conjunction with sufficiently high success rates of movement detection. Our goal is to reduce the need for the physical presence of a physiotherapist by aiding the efficient performance of exercise sessions at any location and increase patient engagement during physiotherapy by motivating the user to participate in a game using the current ultra-portable framework of just a single IMU sensor and an Android device.

    Trabajo de Fin de Grado (code 31099) Degree in English Studies Session 2020-21 Student’s first name Noelia Sáez Felipe Student’s surname DNI 48804863-J Title of your TFG An analysis of language and gender stereotypes in video games First name and surname José Belda-Medina of your Tutor Abstract In the video games world, we often observe several stereotyped patterns between female and male characters, related to their image, personality, and language. The main objective is to analyze these patterns and compare them between characters. Quantitative data was gathered through the analysis of eight videogames that are new, world-famous and there is a presence of female characters and a survey completed by 111 young people to evaluate their level of awareness regarding gender roles, as well as the language that these characters use. The results show that video games explicitly or implicitly have differences in gender roles and sexist factors that influence the identity of the female characters and the respondents were fully aware of gender stereotypes. However, a significant part of them decided to continue playing these games, although they demanded a change in the videogame industry. Video games, gender roles, stereotypes, awareness, Thematic key words submissive and assertive language. INDEX 1.

  • GAMES – for JUNIOR OR SENIOR HIGH YOUTH GROUPS Active
    GAMES – FOR JUNIOR OR SENIOR HIGH YOUTH GROUPS Active Games Alka-Seltzer Fizz: Divide into two teams. Have one volunteer on each team lie on his/her back with a Dixie cup in their mouth (bottom part in the mouth so that the opening is facing up). Inside the cup are two alka-seltzers. Have each team stand ten feet away from person on the ground with pitchers of water next to the front. On “go,” each team sends one member at a time with a mouthful of water to the feet of the person lying on the ground. They then spit the water out of their mouths, aiming for the cup. Once they’ve spit all the water they have in their mouth, they run to the end of the line where the next person does the same. The first team to get the alka-seltzer to fizz wins. Ankle Balloon Pop: Give everyone a balloon and a piece of string or yarn. Have them blow up the balloon and tie it to their ankle. Then announce that they are to try to stomp out other people's balloons while keeping their own safe. Last person with a blown up balloon wins. Ask The Sage: A good game for younger teens. Ask several volunteers to agree to be "Wise Sages" for the evening. Ask them to dress up (optional) and wait in several different rooms in your facility. The farther apart the Sages are the better. Next, prepare a sheet for each youth that has questions that only a "Sage" would be able to answer.

  • Jakob Eklund CV
    Jakob Eklund – Senior software developer / Aspiring game creator Jakob Eklund CV Summary I am an inventive, curious, and analytical software developer who finds it easy to see the broader picture. Since I have worked as both agile coach and IT solutions manager, I am also used to guiding groups in both projects and ongoing development. After 10+ years in the IT industry, I am most aware that software does not emerge out of code alone. The organizational and cultural aspects are at least as important as the technical. For me, self-organizing teams, high-frequency deliveries and a scientific approach are all necessary to produce robust and well-functioning solutions. GOAL I want to make computer games that stimulate a sense of discovery, creativity, lateral thinking and empathy. As far as my individual work is concerned, I prefer to be a generalist rather than specialise. That being said, I am extra interested in software architecture, procedural animation, test-driven development and accessibility. I'm most comfortable working in inter-disciplinarily teams. I have taken leadership roles before and can do so again if the need arises. Work experience 2018-08 – 2019-06 Team lead Kundo In my role as Team Lead, I guided a team of six senior developers through the development of a new cloud service-based customer service product for Facebook. My responsibilities included developing the team at the individual and group level, project management (e.g. planning, goal definition, status reporting, customer relations) and personnel admin (e.g. recruiting, yearly employee interviews and salary negotiation). 2012-09 – 2018-08 Scrum master/IT solutions manager/Software developer MTM Swedish Agency for Accessible Media, MTM, has the mission to ensure that everyone has access to literature and information, regardless of reading ability.
