  • Two Way Interactive Sound on a Standalone Macintosh Platform
    Two way interactive sound on a standalone Macintosh platform Geoffrey Rehn Edith Cowan University Recent policy statements released by both Federal and State governments indicate official willingness to explore the possibilities of the new technologies in language teaching at all educational levels. In this article, the author discusses his experiments in using the Macintosh computer as a standalone, two way interactive language teacher, with the ability to record and play back the learner's attempts at pre-recorded words and phrases in a genuinely interactive sense. Success has been achieved using the MacRecorder, the AudioPalette in HyperCard 2 and Authorware Professional. These developments will prove of interest to those involved in computer- assisted language learning (CALL). Introduction The ability of the Macintosh to generate sound without the need for any additional hardware has been one of the unique features of the machine since its introduction in 1984. A sound output port has been part of the standard Macintosh interface since the first model was released. Now that some of the newer Macintosh models, such as the popular LC, are being shipped with their own built-in microphones, it is possible to input sound into the Macintosh without the need for any additional software, such as Farralon Computing's MacRecorder and associated software. This new development will change how the user incorporates sound into his / her work and truly interactive sound is now possible without the need for any purchase on the part of the user. This paper will explore the use of two - way interactive sound on the Macintosh and its potential for language learning by looking at the use of Farralon's MacRecorder on the older Macintoshes, the use of the AudioPalette shipped with Hypercard 2 on the newer Macs and the ability of Authorware Professional to support interactive sound.

Personal and study details Student's name: Bulander Filip Personal ID number: 456876 Faculty / Institute: Faculty of Electrical Engineering Department / Institute: Department of Control Engineering Study program: Cybernetics and Robotics Branch of study: Systems and Control II. Bachelor’s thesis details Bachelor’s thesis title in English: Interface iOS for control of an unmanned helicopter in ROS Bachelor’s thesis title in Czech: Rozhraní iOS pro řízení bezpilotní helikoptéry v ROSu Guidelines: The goal of the thesis is to design, implement, and experimentally verify in Gazebo simulator and real experiments an application in iOS for control an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) equipped by onboard Linux PC with Robot Operating System (ROS). 1. Implement an interface in iOS to operate by iPhones a UAV equipped by Linux onboard computer with ROS [1,2]. 2. Design and implement an iOS application for basic UAV control by iPhones (joystick, setting GPS points, displaying a UAV telemetry - position estimation, battery status, data from selected onboard sensors). 3. Verify the application in Gazebo and with a real platform in outdoor conditions. 4. Design and implement an iOS application to setup and control an inspection/monitoring task. A user submits a sequence of points of snapshots and camera orientations in these points and the application returns a collision-free path in a known map. The user can edit the obtained path and confirm its execution.

  • HISTORY of APPLE[Tm] MACINTOSH[Tm] OPERATING SYSTEM
    HISTORY OF APPLE[tm] MACINTOSH[tm] OPERATING SYSTEM LisaDesk : released, on January 1983, for Apple Lisa computer. On January 1985, Lisa 2-10, outfitted with MacWorks, was renamed Macintoh XL. System 1 (1.0 and 1.1) : released respectively on January 1984 and May 1984, both versions were directly derived from LisaDesk offered less functionality, in favor of being more stable. Certain functions of LisaDesk were included in later versions of Mac[tm] OS, including Mac[tm] OS X. System 2 (1.2 to 2.1) : while integrating new functions, the principal objective of this system was to allow a better management to compensate for the absence of a hard disk on first models of Macintosh. System 3 (2.2 to 3.3) : this system accompanied, on 1986, the new Macintosh models. This system had more facility and was more powerful, it allowed the integration of new file format HFS, of new communications functionality, and laser printer support. System 4 & 5 (4.0 to 5.1) : these systems accompanied the first Macintosh models with colour monitors, and allowed transition between mono-task system and cooperative multi-task system with first generation of Multifinder which made possible to manage several applications simultaneously. System 6 (6.0 to 6.0.8) : improvements to the cooperative multi-task system with second generation of Multifinder. It was released in many specialized versions according to the model which was equipped to meet specific needs, particularly for graphic applications. System 7 (7.0 to 7.6.1) : complete integration of cooperative multi-task processing inside the system, this system gradually integrated increasingly significant functionality concerning multimedia applications and Internet.

  • The System Software Museum
    Chapter 6 The System Software Museum IN THIS CHAPTER: I Every system version Apple ever released I The differences between System 7.1 and 7.0.1 I The differences between 7.5, 7.5.1, 7.5.2, 7.5.3, 7.5.5, 7.6, and so on I The SECRETS time line I Mac OS 8 — what’s left of it — explained I Guide to AppleSpeak In a little more than a decade, Apple has served up no fewer than 32 different versions of the Mac operating system. We will attempt in this chapter to guide you on a never-before-attempted journey: We will describe virtually all these permutations of the Mac’s system software, from the short-lived System 1.0 to the sprawling, sophisticated System 7.6. Beyond that we’ll show you exactly what to expect from Apple’s as-yet-unreleased system updates and the still- evolving Mac OS 8. THE SYSTEM SOFTWARE MUSEUM Why create a museum of the Mac’s system software? For one thing, exploring the nitty-gritty of system compatibility may prove valuable to Mac trou- bleshooters. It can be pretty handy to know, for example, that in a pinch you can run an LC II with System 6.0.8, but not 6.0.7. Or that a Quadra 630 can 215 216 Part I: System Software Revealed run System 7.1.2P,but not the nearly identical System 7.1.2. Furthermore, the rash of System 7 varieties has boggled even us. Quick, without looking: What’s the difference between versions 7.1.1, 7.1.2, 7.1.3, and 7.5? And what on Earth was System 7.5.3 Revision 2.1? On a more philosophical level, this retrospective provides a stunning overview of just how far the Mac has come since its introduction.
