TL;DR: In this paper, the theory and practice of physical measurements by high-sensitivity moire - principally moire interferometry, focusing on the mechanics and micromechanics of materials and structural elements is discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the methodology and results of the mechanical characterization of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polycarbonate (PC) 3D printed parts to determine the extent of anisotropy present in 3-D printed materials.

TL;DR: This paper motivate the use of computer vision for MAV autonomy, arguing that given current sensor technology, vision may be the only practical approach to the problem, and describes the statistical vision-based horizon detection algorithm, which has been demonstrated at 30 Hz with over 99.9% correct horizon identification.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the submissions to a recently announced contact-mechanics modeling challenge and provided both theorists and experimentalists with benchmarks to decide which method is the most appropriate for a particular application and to gauge the errors associated with each one.
