The franc is the currency unit of Switzerland, and, until 2002, was the currency in Belgium and Luxembourg.
The 3D Xpression was one of the early low cost boards that combined traditional 2D Windows acceleration with 3D, smooth video playback of MPEG, TV-out in a low cost package.
Gamers Depot: "...In both 2D AND 3D I have yet to see a card that provides this level of image quality and detail...".
In the 3D world, when 32 bits of colour depth is used, acceptable roundoff error in the 16 bit world by using mathematical approximation (Taylor series approximations of sine, cos and exponential functions) are not as acceptable.

CANSAFE performs elastic and elastoplastic analysis of rock masses using the FE method, VISROCK is an FE program for elast-viscoplastic flow of soft rock, BEAP3D uses a 3D boundary element method, and BSM is a block-spring model for the analysis of jointed rocks.
The facilities include 2D and 3D mesh generation and visualization, and a choice of solution methods (direct and iterative).
Canadian courts have not recognized a stand-alone duty of good faith that is independent from the terms expressed in a contract or from the objectives that emerge from those provisions.
Practitioners in Marketing Ltd., [1971] 2 All E.R. 216 (C.A.) (trial judge found that agreement was terminable on reasonable notice on either side and parties did not dispute this finding before Court of Appeal).
In that case, the court adopted the application of five factors extrapolated by Professor Waddams from the case law, to analyze whether there has been a substantial failure of performance amounting to fundamental breach.
After years of research, a group of scientists and engineers have finally achieved what many have considered to be the impossible: Convert a standard 2D video image into a true, holographic-like 3D projection - in real time.
The Converter System performs complicated mathematical algorithms which convert standard 2D video into Real 3D that can be viewed by watching your TV with the included 3D glasses.
The wireless 3D glasses included with this system operate by receiving an infrared signal transmitted from the converter box.
The multi-baseline stereo method, the second example, is a new stereo theory that uses multi-image fusion for creating a dense depth map of a natural scene.
The 3D structure of the event, aligned with the pixels of the image, is computed for a few selected directions using the multi-baseline stereo technique.
We have built a 3D Virtualized Studio using a hemispherical dome, 5 meters in diameter, currently with 51 cameras attached at its nodes.

Kovac, Jure and Peer, Peter and Solina, Franc (2003) 2D Versus 3D Colour Space Face Detection.
Technical Report, Faculty of Computer and Information Science, University of Ljubljana.
Since some colour spaces are designed to eliminate the influence of illumination when describing colour of an object, an idea of using such a colour space for skin-colour detection was taken under consideration and some of the methods were researched and tested.
