It continues to be sold out practically worldwide. Our initial plan was to ship two million units by the end of March. But as we announced yesterday, we have already shipped 2.74 million • Shipped Units Nearly Sold Out in Each Region • 2.74 Million Units Shipped through the end of March units through the end of March. Overall, sell-through of Nintendo Switch stacks up well, even in comparison to hardware that launched during holiday seasons.

  • Short Range Object Detection and Avoidance
    Short Range Object Detection and Avoidance N.F. Jansen CST 2010.068 Traineeship report Coach(es): dr. E. García Canseco, TU/e dr. ing. S. Lichiardopol, TU/e ing. R. Niesten, Wingz BV Supervisor: prof.dr.ir. M. Steinbuch Eindhoven University of Technology Department of Mechanical Engineering Control Systems Technology Eindhoven, November, 2010 Abstract The scope of this internship is to investigate, model, simulate and experiment with a sensor for close range object detection for the purpose of the Tele-Service Robot (TSR) robot. The TSR robot will be implemented in care institutions for the care of elderly and/or disabled. The sensor system should have a supporting role in navigation and mapping of the environment of the robot. Several sensors are investigated, whereas the sonar system is the optimal solution for this application. It’s cost, wide field-of-view, sufficient minimal and maximal distance and networking capabilities of the Devantech SRF-08 sonar sensor is decisive to ultimately choose this sensor system. The positioning, orientation and tilting of the sonar devices is calculated and simulations are made to obtain knowledge about the behavior and characteristics of the sensors working in a ring. Issues surrounding the sensors are mainly erroneous ranging results due to specular reflection, cross-talk and incorrect mounting. Cross- talk can be suppressed by operating in groups, but induces the decrease of refresh rate of the entire robot’s surroundings. Experiments are carried out to investigate the accuracy and sensitivity to ranging errors and cross-talk. Eventually, due to the existing cross-talk, experiments should be carried out to decrease the range and timing to increase the refresh rate because the sensors cannot be fired more than only two at a time.

  • Bildung Neu Gestalten Mit Games“ in Den Händen Halten
    BILDBILDUNGUNG NEU GGESTESTAALLTTENEN MIMITT G GAAMMEESS Grußwort Liebe Leserinnen und Leser, jeder Mensch ist von Natur aus ein „homo ludens“, das Spielen gehört zum Menschen wie seine Neugier. Mit Spielen kann Neugier auf Dinge geweckt werden und im Idealfall kann der Mensch sich sein Wissen spielerisch aneignen. Das war schon immer so und wird auch hoffentlich so bleiben. Die Digitalisierung bietet dem Menschen jetzt ganz neue Möglichkeiten, seinen Spieltrieb auszuleben und so auch sein Wissen zu erweitern und sich die Welt zu erobern. Dabei kann die Digitalisierung nicht nur der Weg sein, die verschiedensten Ausprägungen der Digitalisierung sollten auch Ziel der Eroberung sein. In dieser Broschüre erhalten Sie schöne Anregungen, wie Sie mit Hilfe von Computerspielen Kinder und Jugendliche in ihrer Erfahrungswelt abholen können. Dabei ist die Bandbreite sehr groß. So kön- nen digitale Spiele die (Computerspiel-)Medienkompetenz von Jugendlichen steigern. Ebenso können Experimente, die im Klassenraum üblicherweise nicht möglich sind, das Physikwissen verfestigen. Dies sind nur zwei Beispiele, wie die Kreativität der Schüler angeregt werden kann. Allen Vorschlägen ist gemeinsam, dass sie sich im Unterricht auch mit wenig oder teilweise völlig ohne Computer-Technik durchführen lassen. Weitere Anregungen und Ideen finden Sie auf der von uns geför- derten Online-Plattform Digitale-Spielewelten.de. Probieren Sie aus, was bei Ihren Schülern ankommt, und nutzen Sie die Potenziale von Computerspielen zur Bereicherung Ihres Unterrichts. Ich wünsche Ihnen und Ihren Schülern viel Spaß und Erfolg bei der Umsetzung Ihr Steffen Bilger Parlamentarischer Staatssekretär beim Bundesminister für Verkehr und digitale Infrastruktur 4 Vorwort Liebe Leserinnen und Leser, wir freuen uns sehr, dass Sie heute unsere Broschüre „Bildung neu gestalten mit Games“ in den Händen halten.
