  2. Hand geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_geometry

    Geometry of a hand and some examples of measurements that can be taken by hand geometry reading devices. [1] A hand geometry reading device with pegs to control the placement of the hand. Angled mirror on the left reflects the side view image of the hand to the camera. A CCD camera is beneath the keypad to take the top view image of the hand ...

  3. Van Hiele model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Hiele_model

    A student at Level 0 or 1 will not have the same understanding of this term. The student does not understand the teacher, and the teacher does not understand how the student is reasoning, frequently concluding that the student's answers are simply "wrong". The van Hieles believed this property was one of the main reasons for failure in geometry.

  4. Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_dimensioning_and...

    Example of true position geometric control defined by basic dimensions and datum features. Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) is a system for defining and communicating engineering tolerances via a symbolic language on engineering drawings and computer-generated 3D models that describes a physical object's nominal geometry and the permissible variation thereof.

  5. Biometrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biometrics

    The Face system uses class-based scatter matrices to calculate features for recognition, and the Palm Vein acts as an unbreakable cryptographic key, ensuring only the correct user can access the system. The cancelable Biometrics concept allows biometric traits to be altered slightly to ensure privacy and avoid theft.

  6. List of Dewey Decimal classes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Dewey_Decimal_classes

    As a system of library classification the DDC is "arranged by discipline, not subject", so a topic like clothing is classed based on its disciplinary treatment (psychological influence of clothing at 155.95, customs associated with clothing at 391, and fashion design of clothing at 746.92) within the conceptual framework. [2]

  7. Manual Ability Classification System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_Ability...

    The Manual Ability Classification System (MACS) is a medical classification system used to describe how children aged from 4 to 18 years old with cerebral palsy use their hands with objects during activities of daily living, with a focus on the use of both hands together.

  8. Classification of manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_of_manifolds

    There are two usual ways to give a classification: explicitly, by an enumeration, or implicitly, in terms of invariants. For instance, for orientable surfaces, the classification of surfaces enumerates them as the connected sum of tori, and an invariant that classifies them is the genus or Euler characteristic.

  9. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    On one hand, it is a general principle of engineering drawings that they are projected using standardized, mathematically certain projection methods and rules. Thus, great effort is put into having an engineering drawing accurately depict size, shape, form, aspect ratios between features, and so on.
