  • Wzmacniacz Zintegrowany Goldenote S-1 Cena
    Wzmacniacz zintegrowany Goldenote S-1 Cena: 4799 zł Dystrybucja: Moje Audio Kontakt: Powstańców Śląskich 118, 53-333 Wrocław tel/fax: (71) 336 52 67 tel. kom.: 606 276 001, 790 425 142 e-mail: [email protected] Strona producenta: Goldenote Tekst: Krzysztof Kalinkowski Podczas poprzedniego testu (zestaw Lector – TUTAJ) wspomniałem, że wiele urządzeń testowanych przez „High Fidelity” pochodzi z Włoch. I jakoś tak się porobiło, że w moje ręce trafił kolejny włoski produkt, zintegrowany wzmacniacz Goldenote S-1. To pokazuje naprawdę, jak wiele urządzeń audio pochodzących z tego kraju jest dostępnych u nas w Polsce. Myślę, że wśród nich, każdy może znaleźć coś dla siebie, na wielu półkach cenowych i jakościowych, i wiele osób będzie z takiego wyboru zadowolonych. Szczególnie, że są to w większości produkty oferujące „bardzo wiele za stosunkowo niewiele”. Ale myślę, że o tym zdążyli się już Państwo przekonać czytając wcześniejsze testy, lub słuchając samodzielnie produktów oferowanych przez włoskich producentów. S-1 to najtańszy wzmacniacz oferowany przez firmę Akamai (tym razem pod nazwą Goldenote), prowadzoną przez Maurizio Ateriniego (na zdjęciu podczas wystawy High End 2008 w Monachium). Produkty tej firmy znam dość dobrze – przez pewien czas miałem w swoim systemie odtwarzacz Koala Tube, miałem też okazję zapoznać się odtwarzaczem plików DSS-30 (test Naczelnego TUTAJ) oraz inną elektroniką z linii Blacknote (test TUTAJ). Znam też, choć już nieco gorzej, ponieważ nie słuchałem ich w swoim systemie, źródła analogowe, kolumny i wzmacniacze z serii Demidoff. Moim zdaniem wszystkie te urządzenia potwierdzają regułę, którą przedstawiłem poprzednio, iż Muzyka jest przez nie traktowana priorytetowo. Uprzedzając nieco fakty, powiem, że również testowany wzmacniacz nie jest od niej wyjątkiem.

  • Progress in Rendering and Modeling for Digital Planetariums
    EUROGRAPHICS 2010/ M. Cooper and K. Pulli Areas Paper Progress in Rendering and Modeling for Digital Planetariums M. Magnor1,2† and P. Sen2 and J. Kniss2 and E.Angel2 and S. Wenger1 1 TU Braunschweig, Germany 2 University of New Mexico, USA Abstract Contemporary challenges in the production of digital planetarium shows include real-time rendering realism as well as the creation of authentic content. While interactive, live performance is a standard feature of professional digital-dome planetarium software today, support for physically correct rendering of astrophysical phenomena is still often limited. Similarly, the tools currently available for planetarium show production do not offer much assistance towards creating scientifically accurate models of astronomical objects. Our paper presents recent results from computer graphics research, offering solutions to contemporary challenges in digital planetarium rendering and modeling. Incorporating these algorithms into the next generation of dome display software and production tools will help advance digital planetariums toward make full use of their potential. Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I.3.3 [Computer Graphics]: Picture/Image Generation—Viewing algorithms I.3.5 [Computer Graphics]: Computational Geometry and Object Modeling— Physically based modeling I.3.8 [Computer Graphics]: Applications—Digital Planetariums J.2 [Computer Appli- cations]: Physical Sciences and Engineering—Astronomy 1. Introduction A challenging task for digital fulldome planetariums is to decide on how to present scientific content in the vi- While researchers are currently exploring many innovative sually most intuitive way, given the innumerable possibil- new uses for digital domes, the main application of public ities offered by digital dome projection.
