Razvijanjem jače računalne snage te dolaskom novih tehnologija, mnoge profesionalne tehnike rekreacije što vjernije stvarnosti koje su razvili najveći svjetski studiji računalne grafike, postaju sve ...pristupačnije široj javnosti. Time se svijet vrhunske 3D kreacije otvara i manje iskusnim kreatorima do te mjere da bilo tko sa samo osnovnim znanjem računalne grafike i alata za 3D dizajniranje može proizvesti grafiku koja će oduzimati dah svojim realizmom. Ovaj članak istražuje dvije takve tehnike bok uz bok – 3D skeniranje pristupačnom dubinskom kamerom i fotogrametriju. Kroz praktične primjere usporedit će se rezultati dobiveni tim tehnikama s rezultatima koji bi se dobili primjenom klasičnih tehnika 3D modeliranja, a potom usporediti kompleksnost izrade pojedinom tehnikom i definirati u kojim situacijama te nove tehnike uistinu prednjače nad klasičnim tehnikama modeliranja, no gdje su još uvijek klasične tehnike nezamjenjive.
Rodents are a threat to agriculture and homes, and are a public health risk. Local perceptions about rodents and the damage they cause are vital, as a first step, to the design and implementation of ...rodent control or educational programs. A total of 111 interviews were conducted in two urban neighborhoods and two rural villages in Yucatan, Mexico. More than 90% of the interviewed inhabitants perceived rodents as a problem. The fear of rodents (57%), damage to food and stocks (56%), and damage to clothes (34%), were the most cited problems. In the urban neighborhoods, the use of rodent control methods was more frequent (57%) than in the villages (33%) in this study. In addition, the percentage of damage to domestic appliances was lower in villages (10%) than in neighborhoods (33%). Our preliminary results suggest that rodent pests represent a threat to human health and to human food security in the studied sites.
