Abstract:
Emboldened by the economic crisis of 2007 to 2008, a growing rhizome of socially and politically engaged spatial practices have resorted to alternative modes of producing architecture that focus more on its societal aspirations. Aiming to uncover some of the potentialities of the projects that emerged from this growing rhizome to introduce other modes of making architecture while resisting dominant ones, this paper considers the Deleuzian-Guattarian concept of the “minor” to propose an alternative reading of such projects as “minor architectures,” that is, critical practices that resist the canon and act in the crevices of the mainstream. Using ethnographic research methods on two empirical cases, namely the Floating Berlin designed by Raumlabor and Agrocité Paris designed by Atelier d’Architecture Autogérée, the paper identifies “minor” spatial tactics of making architecture that go beyond the limit(ation)s of the practice: (1) resisting the architectural object as a static entity, (2) fostering collective expression, (3) exploring potentialities by reterritorializing interstitial spaces, and (4) creating haptic and affective experiences. The paper reflects on the concept of the minor as an operational tool that could help break away from dominant systems of architectural production.

Abstract:
Urban segregation is an inherent feature of cities and becomes a problem when excluding or hindering certain groups from accessing services, activities and spaces. In Brazil, segregation by social class is dominant in the structure of cities and public policies rarely address urban configuration as part of the segregation problem. This work addresses segregation with a shift in emphasis from traditional housing segregation to segregation as the restraint of socio-spatial interactions, thus including other facets of the phenomenon that have not yet been properly explored and seeking new spatially relevant metrics. This paper aims to present a methodology of segregation analysis based on configurational models and develop an empirical application in a Brazilian city. Representing the probabilities of interaction between different socio-economic groups in public spaces, a configurational model was used, addressing retail-residence spatial relationship. The attributes of population size, household income and number of retail establishments were considered. The results allowed identifying the probabilistic residence-retail trajectories for high and low income groups, providing a first measure of spatial segregation. The conclusions seek to highlight the importance of configurational approaches for segregation studies, as well as to show potentialities and limits of this methodology.

Abstract:
The objective of this study, based on a systematic literature review, is to present the characteristics and potentialities of remote sensing as a useful environmental surveillance tool for applied research in the control of endemics in Brazil. Onboard satellite sensors allow for monitoring the territory, furnishing spatial and temporal information on various scales and regions in the electromagnetic spectrum. Based on the literature review on the application of this technology to the study of endemics and the identification of the potential of new sensors with better spectral, spatial, and temporal resolutions, this study highlights perspectives for the use of remote sensing in the study of important endemics for Brazil.

Abstract:
The spatial turn within the humanities and need for data richness has led to the re-conceptualisation and exploration of maps as ‘deep maps.’ Building narratives of place is becoming increasingly contingent on data landscapes as opposed to the physical landscapes within which they are situated. To make the assumption that GIS can form the basis for deep maps is to privilege the spatial dimension (and spatial data) over all others. We have sought in our experimentation to take a more open, balanced approach as to how a deep map might be organised as a way of learning/reflecting on what elements a framework should contain. Our subject matter here necessitated attention to the challenges and potentialities of deep mapping ‘things deemed religious.’ We found spatial navigation to be useful for visualizing physical and metaphysical linkages, integrating the geographical portions of our spatial narrative as well as organizing thoughts off the map.

The article considers combined structures, a new principle of form development in spatial design. The characteristics and potentialities of this method for designing children's play environments are reviewed. A correlation analysis of modular and structural principles of form design as a basis for the creation of more complex structures is carried out. Similar approaches and treatments available in the theory are identified. It is emphasized that this approach to form could help diversify children's play environments and fill them with new meanings.

Videos acquired from Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) allow for monitoring river systems at high spatial and temporal resolutions providing unprecedented datasets for hydrological and hydraulic applications. The cost-effectiveness of these measurement methods stimulated the diffusion of image-based frameworks and approaches at scientific and operational levels. Moreover, their application in different environmental contexts gives us the opportunity to explore their reliability, potentialities and limitations, and future perspectives and developments. This paper analyses the recent progress on this topic, with a special focus on the main challenges to foster future research studies.

Abstract:
Multispiral computed tomography (MSCT) is a method of choice for evaluation of bone structure condition, as well as for visualization of growth zones, main and additional ossific nuclea of the articular elements. Besides, MSCT provides precise evaluation of spatial orientation of hip joint components, pattern of bone fragments displacement in traumatic injuries, localization of pathologic focus in bone pathology and degree of adjacent anatomic structures involvement. Contrast enhancement (double-contrast technique) markedly widens potentialities of this method as it enables to evaluate the condition of articular cartilage and soft tissue structures that is the most actual in young children.

Abstract:
Currently, climate change poses a global threat, which may compromise the sustainability of agriculture, forestry and other land surface systems. In a changing world scenario, the economic importance of Remote Sensing (RS) to monitor forests and agricultural resources is imperative to the development of agroforestry systems. Traditional RS technologies encompass satellite and manned aircraft platforms. These platforms are continuously improving in terms of spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions. The high spatial and temporal resolutions, flexibility and lower operational costs make Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) a good alternative to traditional RS platforms. In the management process of forests resources, UAVs are one of the most suitable options to consider, mainly due to: (1) low operational costs and high-intensity data collection; (2) its capacity to host a wide range of sensors that could be adapted to be task-oriented; (3) its ability to plan data acquisition campaigns, avoiding inadequate weather conditions and providing data availability on-demand; and (4) the possibility to be used in real-time operations. This review aims to present the most significant UAV applications in forestry, identifying the appropriate sensors to be used in each situation as well as the data processing techniques commonly implemented.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse déploie son analyse à partir de la présence de l’enfant dans les configurations variées de l’espace public urbain. Elle privilégie une lecture des ambiances pour appréhender la manière dont le corps des enfants est mobilisé par son environnement. L’étude s’attache ainsi à adopter une analyse dynamique de la façon dont l'enfant s'insère, s'émeut et s'adapte au sein de l’espace public. Le concept d’affordance établi par le psychologue James J. Gibson occupe une place centrale dans cette étude (Gibson, 1979). Il permet de déployer une lecture des propriétés du bâti en ce qu’elles stimulent, offrent ou « appellent » certaines activités. Parmi celles-ci, le jeu, librement choisi, contribue au développement global de l’enfant.Notre approche se confronte à une littérature scientifique dense et variée qui a examiné l’impact du jeu en extérieur sur le comportement et le développement de l’enfant. Au tournant des années 1970, il semble que la libre présence des enfants dans l’espace public urbain tende à se restreindre et à poser la question de l’émergence de systèmes de surveillance corrélée à l’idée d’une vulnérabilité de l’enfant dans la ville. Non sans liens, les infrastructures et environnements de jeu, qui apparaissent d’abords insuffisants, se développent pour configurer dans l’espace urbain des îlots séparés formant des aires de jeu créées par les adultes. Cette thèse envisage de repartir du corps en mouvement de l’enfant pour envisager son champ de perception et, plus loin, son rapport à la ville (Breviglieri, 2014). L’approche écologique et sensible aux ambiances permettra de poser un regard expérimental et évaluatif sur les espaces urbains présents dans le quotidien des enfants.La thèse interroge une variété de designs d’espaces (résidentiels ou proprement ludiques) de la ville dans son lien aux comportements de jeu des enfants. Pour cela, elle propose d’investiguer quatre environnements urbains hétérogènes en Égypte et en France. L’étude des dimensions récréatives et résidentielles prend alors appui sur une « approche de recherche par enquête comparative causale » et des « études de cas intrinsèque » (Groat & Wang, 2013).Cette enquête de terrain est menée en trois phases, avec des enfants « d’âge moyen» choisis au hasard, entre cinq et douze ans. Elle comprend des observations comportementales structurées centrées sur le comportement de l’enfant. Ces observationssont complétées par une étude des activités cognitives perceptuelles engagée dans l’effectuation de dessins et de photographies, et par la réalisation d’entretiens informels associés occasionnellement à des parcours commentés. Les données recueillies ont été analysées dans le cadre de la « théorie du triptyque de l'espace » et de la « théorie des affordances ». Ce cadre a pour objet de clarifier les écarts de perception et de représentation entre celles qui appartiennent au concepteur de l’environnement urbain et celles qui appartiennent à l’enfant dans son expérience physique et culturelle de l’espace. Il est possible d’extraire de cette étude des thèmes capables de renouveler certaines orientations de la fabrique de la ville. Ces thèmes convergent pour repenser à la fois la place de l’enfant dans la ville, et la manière dont celle-ci peut générer des environnements intergénérationnels favorisant le bien-être des citadins.« Une ville où l’enfant serait le prince et le père de l’homme » (Aillaud, 1972)
Play is a freely chosen process that is important for the overall children development. A relatively large amount of research efforts have investigated the impact of play, particularly outdoor play in natural environments, on children's play behavior and the consequent impact on their development. However, in the recent decades, modern societies have noticed an intense declination of play opportunities in outdoor spaces especially in the local everyday community urban spaces, as living streets, neighborhoods, and recreational public spaces, due to the imposed structured activities, adult supervision, and poor playing environments such as enclosed playgrounds.To date, relatively few studies have investigated children's lived experiences in their daily urban spaces, where they can play freely. Although they have their own way of perceiving, experiencing, and living the daily urban spaces, different from adults that results in creating a gap. Thus, in order to fill in the resulted gap, this study aims to investigate the potential impact of the urban transformation of daily urban spaces on children presence and their play behavioral patterns. The second objective is to explore the associations between specific spatial physical characteristics as well as functional qualities, or “spatial potentialities” that form different configurations, and children play opportunities (Breviglieri, 2014(.The study relies on a “causal comparative survey research approach” and an “intrinsic case study” (Groat & Wang, 2013). It involves the investigation of four selected urban spaces, with different spatial configuration, (recreational and residential urban functional categories), in Paris, France and Cairo, Egypt. Fieldwork is conducted through three phases, with randomly selected “middle-aged” children, between 5 to 12 years. It included structured child-centered behavioral observations complemented with behavioral qualitative observations, perceptual cognitive skill activities as drawings as well as photography, and informal interviews associated occasionally with child- led walks.Collected data is analyzed within the shadow of both “Trialectic of Space Theory” (Lefebvre, 1992) and “Affordances theories”, (Gibson, 1979, Norman 1988, Bohme, 2017), to fill in the problematic gap. This created gap is situated between the designed spaces by adult so as designers, children perceptions depending on their capabilities, cultural, social background, as well as their previous experience, and the resulted lived space with its specific ambiance adopting children’s needs and behaviors.The study strongly suggests that spatial porosity of daily urban spaces, influence children's presence and the occurrence of different play behavior types. In addition, different spatial typologies seemed to promote different play patterns that may enhance different children’s spatial perceptions and preferences. Moreover, the study identified and outlined a set of specific spatial potentialities aspects, forming different spatial configurations, which appeared to be associated to children's sensory experiences, play opportunities, and the resulted lived ambient envelop.This study tended to enable urban planners and landscape architects to extract the essential characteristics that help creating child-friendly spaces. In order to encompass children with diversity of cultures and origins from all over the world. Hereafter, it will open a new perspective in the design, by proposing a design approach and guidelines to articulate children's spaces in the city; it is not a question of thinking of these spaces, as closed islands, but rather as child-friendly environments within intergenerational cities.“A city where the child would be the prince and the father of Man” (Aillaud, 1972)

Abstract:
Des premiers peuplements aux décennies qui suivent son indépendance, la région d'Antsiranana connaît des implantations humaines le long des côtes avec un arrière-pays peu peuplé, mettant en évidence une corrélation étroite entre la croissance urbaine et le développement des voies de communication et des transports. Le contraste est nettement marqué entre l'espace urbain et l'espace rural, tant au niveau des infrastructures, des moyens de communication et de l'accès aux services de l'État qu'au niveau du rapport à la modernité et au passé. Cependant, la réalité malgache est encore largement rurale et paysanne, ancrée dans le passé et l'autosubsistance. Le déséquilibre aigu entre les régions Diana et Sava qui marque la province d'Antsiranana est le fruit d'une dynamique migratoire, de siècles d'histoire où dominent les intérêts d'un pouvoir fort central, et de caractéristiques physiques d'un relief prononcé. Mais ces conditions ne suffisent pas à expliquer les différences, des facteurs sociologiques et économiques sont à considérer. Les enjeux régionaux restent l'identité culturelle, les ressources naturelles et financières et l'exercice du pouvoir, préoccupations éloignées des prochains grands enjeux économiques mondialisés. Madagascar se doit de trouver l'équilibre entre la mondialisation et ses valeurs intrinsèques où notamment la valeur de l'homme se définit par l'être et non par l'avoir.

Abstract:
Ce mémoire traite des amplificateurs et émetteurs lasers à base de fibres dopées aux ions de terres rares, et de leurs potentialités d'application dans le domaine aéronautique et spatial. Les conclusions tirées s'appuient sur une étude bibliographique, des modélisations analytiques et des validations expérimentales. Les amplificateurs à fibre dopée peuvent être utilisées à l'émission, en ligne, ou à la réception dans des applications de transmission, distribution ou détection de signaux optiques. La première partie du document comporte une analyse des conditions dans lesquelles leur efficacité peut être démontrée. Elle confirme leur adéquation pour toute application de type télécommunications. La deuxième partie traite des émetteurs lasers et de leurs performances dans diverses configurations. Le domaine spectral étudié est celui dit à sécurité oculaire, comprenant en particulier les longueurs d'onde 1. 55 et 2 µm. Parmi les dispositifs envisageables, ceux qui permettent une émission continue faible bruit, monomode transverse et monofréquence, dans une configuration compacte, présentent un grand intérêt pour des applications comme le lidar. Enfin, ce document présente l'étude de faisabilité d'un oscillateur local pour lidar à 2µm. L'étude de lasers à fibre adaptés a permis de vérifier leur capacité à répondre à de tels besoins. Le seul point ritique identifié est la stabilité de la longueur d'onde émise, critère très contraignant dans une application lidar. La comparaison avec l'état de l'art des technologies concurrentes n'a cependant pas permis d'identifier de meilleure solution.

Abstract:
Les techniques de teledetection permettent deja de tirer profit de l'information spatiale et homogene fournie par les satellites, afin de cartographier certains effets de la pollution atmospherique sur l'environnement. En revanche, la lacune actuelle en capteur imageur adequat pour suivre directement des polluants tropospheriques, nous amene a examiner la possibilite d'utiliser des donnees optiques et thermiques a haute resolution spatiale (spot et landsat) initialement destinees a l'etude de phenomenes terrestres et maritimes. Le probleme aborde est l'identification des alterations spectrales et texturales subies par le signal radiometrique enregistre, en raison de la presence des polluants. La quantification de l'intensite locale de la pollution s'effectue en termes d'epaisseur optique en aerosols, a l'aide de l'equation du transfert radiatif dans l'atmosphere. L'application sur le cas du nuage de pollution a athenes permet la mise au point d'une methodologie qui combine des analyses visuelles, automatiques et hybrides en vue de determiner la repartition geographique des polluants particulaires anthropogeniques. Les cartes derivees peuvent completer les mesures ponctuelles d'un reseau terrestre de surveillance, ameliorer la repartition de ses stations et fournir une vue d'ensemble de la pollution et des phenomenes de dispersion

The contributors to this book – architectural practitioners, architectural and spatial design theorists, anthropologists and historians – show not only how new theoretical perspectives can arise out of comparing aspects specific to one discipline with their equivalents of another, but also demonstrate how a space of emergence is created for something that goes beyond both, enhancing both fields of potentialities.

The chapter illustrates the results of the educational use of 360° video in the field of Geomatics. Geomatics is the discipline that deals with the collection, analysis, and interpretation of spatial data with the contribution of information technologies. The GeCo Lab has been experimenting in the last few years innovative educational approaches supported by multimedia and interactive tools. The goal within the SEPA360 project has been to use the potentialities of 360° videos to simulate surveying activities, by using topography and laser scanning systems, for the documentation of built heritage, to provide teaching supporting materials for different Geomatic courses active at the University of Florence. The final outputs consist of two videos: one non-interactive with an “educational” approach, to introduce some theoretical concepts, and the other one with an “self-evaluation” purpose, with interactions, added in Vivista.

The chapter investigates the relationship between urban gardening– as political gesture- and socio-spatial justice. In search for an actually existing just city, gardeners’ everyday initiatives advance a substantive micropolitics of life that point out to less visible and sometimes ignored sides of urban governance and planning; and unveil the articulation of different forms of power, dominance and resistance to the unequal distribution of benefits and burdens in space. The critical analysis proposed specifically revolves around the question of whether (and how) urban gardening practices are able to tackle social and spatial injustices. It outlines the consequences, potentialities and contradictions in the constitution of urban spaces and urbanity; and its capability to mitigate material, political and social exclusions, unfairness and inequalities effects. This is complemented with an overview of the contributions comprised in the book.

Abstract:
This article examines the contemporary woman-directed road movie, including Little Miss Sunshine (Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, 2006), Gas Food Lodging (Allison Anders, 1992), and Wendy and Lucy (Kelly Reichardt, 2008), through the lens of neoliberal spatial politics. Drawing on Jack Halberstam’s concept of failure as a queer way of life that has paradoxically positive, constructive, even ecstatic potentialities for resistance against neoliberal disciplinary regimes, I explore how poor women’s spaces depicted in these films function as pockets of resistance against neoliberal power. The road movie genre as a whole is full of rebels against society, most of them male and white, yet they are spatially and colonially empowered – traveling freely across the landscape and finding self-expression through mobility. In the women’s road movie, on the other hand, poor women (particularly those who aren’t attached to men) tend to be immobilized, often failing to get anywhere at all. Poor women’s resistance here is instead configured within the fragile, passed-over lives they build for themselves in the in-between spaces of neoliberal failure. These films depict how poor women’s consumer practices and aesthetic tactics function to reject the dominant, colonial and masculine spatial order of neoliberalism.

Abstract:
This article traces a genealogy of what it means to ‘see’ photographically. Turning to the eye exercises and perspective games of the educator László Moholy-Nagy, the psychologist Adelbert Ames, Jr., and the artist Elad Lassry, it focuses on the human body as a site of instability in exposing the hidden potentialities of photographic space. The camera and the photograph are not used to replicate a pre-existing vision of reality but to explore the visual and cognitive terrain of a new spatial logic. By examining how bodies are organized within and by the picture, it argues that the synthetic topologies of photographic seeing can proprioceptively reorient viewers to the heightened ambiguities of the digital screen as photographic and computational space intersect.

Abstract:
The conclusion of the book argues that state conventions of issuing identification documents and administering poor subjects by absorbing popular knowledge practices did not manifest themselves abruptly or evenly. The very terms and connotations of people demanding certain genres, making and re-making identification documents cannot be read independently of the historical and socio-spatial contexts in which relations between the state and its subjects unfolded. Where the Indian state has drawn out its welfare capacities through popular mobilizations by collectives such as workers’ unions, refugee associations, and slum residents, a unique reliance on a number-based ecosystem threatens to undo the reciprocities and dynamics of governing the poor. We may then be in clamorous need of paper-based infrastructures and potentialities of engendering evidentiary knowledge of the welfare subject where they allow for such innovations.

Abstract:
This chapter builds on themes established in previous chapters by examining these potentialities in relation to the creation of war machines and establishment of a praxis (Freire, 1968). I return to a consideration of how the guerrilla war machine works in relation to State apparatus which produces codes in public space which, for instance, privilege certain types of body over others. I consider how we might create a war machine and imagine how this might foster the sort of molecular revolution which alters what dominant systems of exclusion, marginalization and commodification might do.Mobilising some politics of ‘making the familiar strange’ (Brecht, 1996 [1964/1935]), of critical exteriority (Kristeva, 1981; Lorde, 1984), and of disinvestment from power (Freire, 2017 [1970/1986]), it does offer some ways in which to conceive of different ‘Becomings-’ and alternative imaginations of social, spatial, gendered justice.

The relationship between education and urban environments identifies a process of societal impact through levels of exploration and knowledge of the territorial system. It emerges from pedagogical levels linked to the development of spatial knowledge as “vision” and “motricity,” finalising education on the use and management of territory and urban space in classes of knowledge. In parallel, the increasing adoption of digital technologies has extended the contamination of digital twins to the existing instruments for territorial management, such as geographic information systems. Their features of representation have increased, and the resulting systems can focus on the opportunity to use virtual territories (cities and landscapes in digital form) as both objects and spaces of education. The chapter focuses on “territorial education” to highlight the potentialities of urban infosystems from advancements in digitisation practices, and their interaction with artificial intelligence to support the educational function of digital urban spaces in experience-based and situated learnings.

Abstract:
Research works were carried out in the forest plantations of Toffo reserve (N 6°51′ to N 6°53′ and E 2°05′ to 2°10′). The objectives of the research were to identify and characterize the plant communities of the forest in relation to the ecological factors and the productivity of the forest plantation so as to enable a sustainable management of the forest and biodiversity conservation. In order to achieve those objectives, we used the approach of integrated synusial phytosociology in the study of vegetation; inventories of plantations were made in plant communities so as to identify the levels of productivity of the forest plantations within plant-communities. From the main results achieved, based on the spatial-temporal relationships of the twenty-one (21) synusia (elementary plant-communities) described, they were combined to describe and characterize nine (09) phytocoenoses (more complex plant-communities). The study of the productivity level of plantations within the undergrowth phytocoenoses helped to identify three (03) plantation productivity levels. Finally, the relationships between phytocoenoses, ecological factors, and plantation productivity enabled us to identify and map four (04) forest sites. Taking into account the potentialities and constraints of each forest site, we recommended silvicultural operations to enable sustainable forest management and biodiversity conservation.

Abstract:
Nematic liquid crystals have been used as phase retarders for adaptive optics for more than 10 years. Of the available options, liquid crystals phase modulators (LCPMs) have the advantages of low cost, reliability, compactness, low power, ease of controllability, a transmissive nature, and simple aperture scalability. A number of groups have investigated the use of LCPMs for adaptive wavefront control and demonstrated preliminary results.1-6 The current limitation for using these devices in atmospheric adaptive systems is their relatively slow response times. In this paper we present the results of turbulence simulation with a 127 element LCPM. The turbulence is statistically appropriate for the atmosphere in both temporal and spatial correlation, except for the low spatial and temporal frequency limitations of the LCPM. We address the limitations and potentialities of such modulators.

Abstract:
The present paper proposes to settle comprehensive understanding about first's statements of architectural modernity established in Macau. The research line intends to present the historical modern framework of the region and classify a set of inaugural resettlement housing projects designed by Architect Manuel Vicente during the 1960s/1970s. The achievement of such goals is to be developed through a comparative analysis between the urban background of the 20th century, and the chosen case studies, in order to derives, in one hand, an amplitude equation of the theoretical matrix adopted; and in the other hand, to identify the variations between solutions of housing typologies, collective spaces, spatial distributions and technical systems. This classification needs to consider contextual factors, concentrating not only in the understanding of the proposed case studies, but also on problematics and potentialities, in order to recognize their role in the generational urban grow that characterized the Pearl River Delta. Keywords: Architectural Heritage, Modern Architecture, Urbanism, Macau.

Abstract:
The declaration of an emergency is given by various protocols that respond to a series of interventions driven by an environmental urgency (Anderson 2017), designed by global networks of experts that mobilize advertising modes of economic development in the face of environmental collapse (Goh 2021). This research proposes a different imaginary of the Emergency. This reflection aims to resignify the Emergency from the embodied experiences of the disruptive events we live, opening the discussion on the frictions between a normative world based on human security and the modalities of militant movements dedicated to redressing social, environmental, and economic inequalities (Whyte 2018). In this sense, we develop the idea of sentinel modes of care that reflect the affective scaffolding of life-related to the environment and potential catastrophe (Wright, Plahe, and Jack 2022). A state of constant alertness characterizes sentinel care within a more-than-human register of the relationship and potentialities of the territory. This text aims to position itself on emergency protocols while exploring other imaginaries and their impact on spatial practices.

Abstract:
This paper presents the outcomes of a three-year research project developed by the Politecnico di Milano, Dipartimento di Architettura e Studi Urbani (DAStU), in collaboration with Telecom Italia. Looking at territorial smartness from a spatial perspective, that leaves aside the purely technological aspects, the research aims at exploring different ICT potentialities: from new uses of space, to socio-economic and physical regeneration. With this goal, it reflects about the possible updating of concepts, which are widely used in urban planning: (i) from smart city to smart region, to deal with the regional scale of contemporary cities, thus including peripheral and marginal ‘in-between’ spaces; (ii) from urban nodes to urban digital nodes, to design multi-scalar smart spaces able to integrate traditional and digital services; (iii) from Internet of Things to Internet of Places, to make spaces able to interact through (at the same time) real and virtual experiences of users. These theoretical references are explored within the scenario of the metropolitan region between Milan and Turin. According to these issues, this paper presents the research process to the UDN localization along the infrastructural bundle between Milan and Turin: from the identification of urban/infrastructural nodes, to the selection of potential Urban Digital Nodes. Furthermore, it highlights the UDN contribution to a smart region development through the spatial implementation of an Internet of Places.

Abstract:
Abstract Collaborative robotics is a key pillar of the smart factory of the future making production systems more flexible and responsive. To this aim, the research communities have made considerable efforts to enable direct interaction between humans and robots in a safe and integrated shared workspace. However, the industrial sector still shows a mismatch between the HRC potentialities and the HRC existing applications. The design is often technology-driven, and coexistence prevails on cooperation or collaboration. Through the case study, this article describes the human-driven design approach that a company should follow to define and evaluate different scenarios and choose the one that best suits its context and workforce. It considers safety, ergonomic, technical, spatial, and equipment issues. It presents an application common to all sectors, the packaging, addressing the complexities of the new production paradigm of mass customization. The design approach has been tested by the major Italian kitchen manufacturer and the resulting collaborative workstation has been simulated by using the software Tecnomatix Process Simulate. The simulation allowed the analysis and evaluation of risks, layout, and performance. The simulation results showed significant benefits in terms of efficiency ensuring a safe collaboration.

Full text
Abstract:
Augmentations of the Real presents itself as an occasion to critically interrogate the opportunities that Augmented Reality present for the discipline of architecture1. The problem was illuminated from different angles, reaching from aspects of the augmentation of spatial experiences through articulation and ornamentation, to aspects of AR as an aid in advanced construction methodologies. Special attention was given to the fact that these techniques seamlessly fuse aspects of symbolic culture with considerations of materialism. Augmentations of the Real is profoundly embedded in speculative territories. Moments of uncertainty collide with aspects of precision and control. The result is not an imitation of the former but rather a contemporary interpretation. The foundation can be discerned in the possibility to overlap various experience levels, which allows mining for potentialities in contemporary ornamentations. In this extent, Augmentations of the Real can be considered part of the discussion on Post Digital discourse in Architecture. An era in which computational tools are part of normal reality and other aspects of Digital Design are positioned center stage. Not the toolsets become the main actors, but the cultural agency produced by the toolsets.
