#Pointwise Adds Overset Grid Assembly to CFD Meshing Software Today Pointwise announced the latest release of its computational fluid dynamics (CFD) meshing software featuring direct integration with overset grid
assembly (OGA) software. The integration of grid generation and overset grid assembly represents a vast improvement over the hodge-podge of disparate tools typically employed by practitioners of overset CFD,
The overlap is computed using overset grid assembly software. Users of OGA software typically rely on a circuitous collection of homegrown tools that are patched together.
By integrating OGA (in the form of the PEGASUS and Suggar++software packages) with Pointwise the entire process is made more efficient.
Pointwise has been a proud, long-time sponsor of and participant in the biannual Overset Grid Symposium, said John Chawner,

New software by California-based company Emotient can do just that. Using a simple digital camera Emotient's software can analyze a human face
and determine whether that person is feeling joy sadness surprise anger fear disgust contempt or any combination of those seven emotions.
The company's software called Facet can reconnect those dots by accurately reading the emotions registering on a person's face in a single photograph or video frame.
because the software can track the fluctuations and strengths of emotion over time and even capture microexpressions or little flickers of emotion that pass over people's faces before they can control themselves
The software can also pick up on other subtle facial signs that a human might miss.
In these types of cases the software does need images clearer than 40 pixels but the required resolution is still within a common webcam's capabilities.
Medical applications So what are some uses for software that can identify human emotions based on facial expressions?
As a research professor at the University of California San diego's Machine Perception Lab Bartlett has been studying the use of facial recognition software to help people with autism for several years. 5 Controversial Mental health Treatments
