  2. Six degrees of freedom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_degrees_of_freedom

    The space MMO Vendetta Online also features 6 degrees of freedom. Motion tracking hardware devices such as TrackIR and software-based apps like Eyeware Beam are used for 6DOF head tracking. This device often finds its places in flight simulators and other vehicle simulators that require looking around the cockpit to locate enemies or simply ...

  3. Cam (mechanism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cam_(mechanism)

    The cam can be seen as a device that converts rotational motion to reciprocating (or sometimes oscillating) motion. [clarification needed] [3] A common example is the camshaft of an automobile, which takes the rotary motion of the engine and converts it into the reciprocating motion necessary to operate the intake and exhaust valves of the cylinders.

  4. List of chemical process simulators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_process...

    This is a list of software used to simulate the material and energy balances of chemical process plants. Applications for this include design studies, engineering studies, design audits, debottlenecking studies, control system check-out, process simulation, dynamic simulation, operator training simulators, pipeline management systems, production management systems, digital twins.

  5. Discrete cosine transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_cosine_transform

    A discrete cosine transform (DCT) expresses a finite sequence of data points in terms of a sum of cosine functions oscillating at different frequencies.The DCT, first proposed by Nasir Ahmed in 1972, is a widely used transformation technique in signal processing and data compression.

  6. Gradient descent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradient_descent

    The idea is to take repeated steps in the opposite direction of the gradient (or approximate gradient) of the function at the current point, because this is the direction of steepest descent. Conversely, stepping in the direction of the gradient will lead to a trajectory that maximizes that function; the procedure is then known as gradient ascent.

  7. Lissajous curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lissajous_curve

    Lissajous curves can also be generated using an oscilloscope (as illustrated). An octopus circuit can be used to demonstrate the waveform images on an oscilloscope. Two phase-shifted sinusoid inputs are applied to the oscilloscope in X-Y mode and the phase relationship between the signals is presented as a Lissajous figure.

  8. Outline of software engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Outline_of_software_engineering

    The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to software engineering: Software engineering – application of a systematic, disciplined, quantifiable approach to the development, operation, and maintenance of software; that is the application of engineering to software. [1]

  9. Experimental software engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experimental_software...

    Experimental software engineering involves running experiments on the processes and procedures involved in the creation of software systems, [citation needed] with the intent that the data be used as the basis of theories about the processes involved in software engineering (theory backed by data is a fundamental tenet of the scientific method).
