Experimental digital TV broadcasting during TELSIKS 2009 Conference

Since TELSIKS Conference is dedicated to an introduction of new telecommunications technologies and services, activities that involves broadcasting of experimental digital televison program during the Conference are currently in the progress. The main issue is to promote a plan of the transition from analogue broadcasting to new digital platforms, as well as possibilities of emiters and manufacturers of equipment for digital signal transmission and reception.

TELSIKS October 7-8, 2009, WORKSHOP: Multimedia communications – trends

Tesla’s Virtual Machines-Computer simulation and 3-D modeling of the original patents of Nikola Tesla project


The main goal of the project COMPUTER SIMULATION AND 3-D MODELING OF THE ORIGINAL PATENTS OF NIKOLA TESLA that is applied to the Republic of Serbia’s Ministry of Technology and Science by the Museum of Nikola Tesla of Belgrade and the Faculty of Electronic Engineering of Niš is digitalization and converting of the most interesting and important patents of Nikola
Tesla to the digital domain. The original Tesla's patents, that is in Museum’s posetion is manually converting in 3D models using 3D max application, which is the base of the project. Then, using those static models, some dynamics are added. We use the most advanced software tools; we render, animate, simulate and visualize the patents.The application that were used are 3ds Max,Adobe Photoshop,RealFlow,V-Ray,Microsoft Visual Studio. The computer technology enables that models could be used in unlimited number of copies and in a very different environments. Also, using openGL, C++, Delphi and machine language, we generate real time 3D models, rotating and translating using the direct user's commands. The very interesting application is to use stereoscopic vision of the 3D patents.
The main plan of the technological project is to develop models covering 4 main areas of Tesla's work: Tesla's fountain (that integrates machine technology, induction motor, light technology, the physics of fluids), Tesla’s electromagnetic motors and rotating field invention, Radio technique and wireless propagation of signals and energy (also with Tesla's coil as the basic invention) and the Tesla's vehicle (ship-robot). To comply this ambitious plan, two teams of professors and students on Electronic faculty are assembled as well as professional experts in Museum. Also, all computer potentials (especially with CIITLab and student's programmer’s clubs, GNU club and 3D Archeology Club are involved). The first Tesla's patent that was under our attention was Tesla's fountain. We were working almost 6 months of that segment of project and results are very interesting. We use different tools to generate digital model of Tesla's fountain in various configurations and environments. At the end of this short convey, we will
illustrate some of our results in real 3D rendering models of fountain: more details| više detalja
