<h1>Introductory Trilogy of ECE516 Labs (4 lab weeks total)</h1>
Here are the first four weeks of lab; grading takes place each week (equal
weight), so the grading for Lab 2 is twice the weight (2a + 2b),
i.e. 2a and 2b are each worth equal weight to 1 and 3:
<ul>
<li>1. <strong><a href=one-pixel-display.htm>The one-pixel display</a></strong>:
    once you understand this simple concept, you'll understand
    modern AR (Augmented Reality), and imaging, vision, etc., in a very
    fundamental way;
<li>2a. <strong><a href=one-pixel-camera.htm>The one-pixel camera</a></strong>:
    once you understand this, you'll understand imaging in
    general, and its most fundamental question: "What is a pixel and what does
    it represent, i.e., as a quantity, specifically what does the pixel
    quantity represent?
<li>2b. <strong>Quantifying the 1-pixel camera</strong>:
    Quantimetric/Quantigraphic sensing....
    <br/>
Marking:
<ul>
<li>Collect quantimetric data from your 1-pixel camera:
    obtain ordered pairs (f,g).
<li>Plot g as a function of f.
<li>Plot f as a function of q.
<li>Determine the mathematical relationship between f and q, based on
the data for your camera.
<li>Repeat the above for the two examples shown in class.
    1 mark for repeating with the photoresistor
<a href=photocell_data2016jan20.htm>data gathered in Wednesday's lecture
(link)</a> and 1 mark for repeating with the
<a href=BlueSkySolarCell.htm>data gathered from the Blue Sky solar cell (link)</a>
gathered in Thursday's lecture.
</ul>
Each of the 5 results above is worth 2/10 marks for a total of 10/10.

    <a href=/photocell.pdf>Photocell Experiment</a>.
<li>3. <strong><a href=https://www.instructables.com/id/Phenomenal-Augmented-Reality-Allows-Us-to-Watch-Ho/>Phenomenological Augmented Reality</a>:</strong>
    The kinds of things I like are things that are
    extremely simple yet profoundly deep conceptually.
    Linking the above two labs, we have the 1-pixel camera connected
    to the 1-pixel display, to give rise to the simplest possible example of
    3D AR (Augmented Reality), in which there is an overlay of some
    virtual information in perfect and exact alignment with some form of
    physical reality.
    In a sense you now have a true and accurate scientific "outstrument",
    i.e. a scientific instrument that has a "readout" that reads "out" into
    the real world.
    Marking scheme:
    <br>
    &bull; Get it working with feedback (e.g. glows distinctly more brightly when
    the light source is in view of the sensor): 6 marks;
    <br>
    &bull; Present a feedbackograph (long exposure photograph of the sensor in a
    camera, showing the sightfield of the camera): 3 marks;
    <br>
    &bull; Answer a simple question or otherwise demonstrate knowledge of
    this work and its purpose: 1 mark;
    <br>
    &bull; Bonus 5 marks (for possibly up to 15/10): implement a
    <a href=/swim/>SWIM
    (Sequential Wave Imprinting Machine)</a>,
    as shown in <a href=https://www.instructables.com/id/Imprint-Invisible-Sound-and-Radio-Waves-Onto-Your-/>this Instructable</a>.
    <p>
    Here are four examples of pictures students took and posted
    from previous year:<br/>

    Here is a 5th example from previous year of
    what constitutes the bonus question for an additional 5 marks:<br>

You can see that the electromagnetic radio wave gets weaker as we get further
from the source of the wave, and you can clearly see the wavelength which is
about 3cm, indicating a transmitter that is transmitting radio waves
at around 10,000,000,000 CPS (Cycles Per Second), i.e. around 10 GCPS.
