  4. Video Game Development:
     Game development is Software Development process by which a
    video game is produced.
     Games are developed as a creative ideas and to generate profit to
    the game development industry.
    Major Roles:
     Producer
     Publisher
     Development Team

  5. Producer
     Internal Producer:
    Internal producer works for developer, and he manages the
    development team, schedules, reports progress, hires and assigns
    staff, and so on.
     External Producer:
    External producer works for publisher, and he oversees the
    developer progress and budget of the video game development.

  6. Publisher:
     A video game publisher is a company that publishes video games.
     They usually finance the development, sometimes by paying a video
    game developer and sometimes by paying an internal staff of
    developers called a studio.
     They are including in marketing and all aspects of advertising.

  7. Development Team:
    It may be small groups to hundreds of employees, it’s depends
    on the Game.
    Team includes:
     -Conceiving and designing the rules and structure of a game.
     -Game artist is a visual artist who creates video game art.
    The artist is overseen by Art Director.
     -The programmer is a developer, he works with some kind of game
    development tools. The programmer discipline roles are graphics,
    sound, gameplay, user interface, gametools, input processing,
    network communications, etc.,

  10. INTRODUCTION
    Hawk-Eye is a computer system used in cricket, tennis and
    other sports to track the path of the ball.
    Six cameras tracks the ball so Hawk-Eye picks up the exact
    spot where the ball pitches . Hawk-Eye also measures the speed
    of the ball from the bowler's hand, so it will tell you exactly how
    much time the batsman has to react to a ball.

  11. HISTORY
    It was developed by engineers at Roke Manor Research Limited in
    2001; the patent being held by Paul Hawkins and David Sherry. Later,
    the technology was spun off into a separate company, Hawk-Eye
    Innovations Ltd., as a joint venture with television production
    company Sunset + Vine.
    It first hit our screens in 2001 and has been helping to unravel the
    mysteries of the lbw decision ever since.

  12. HOW IT WORKS
    This is essentially visual processing, using cameras, not lasers. There are six
    calibrated cameras stationed at strategic points around the ground. As a ball
    is bowled each camera recognises the ball in the image. A 3D trajectory of
    the ball is created from the image data using a process called Kalman
    Filtering. From this 3D trajectory, you can determine the speed, angle and
    deviation of the ball's flight.

    WORKING OF HAWK EYE TECHNOLOGY

  14. ACCURACY OF THE TECHNOLOGY
    During ITF testing in 2006 Hawk-Eye made the correct call in 100%
    of all tests, showing an average error of only 3.6mm.
    Tests have always been conducted outdoors, encompassing situa-
    tions that take the following factors into consideration:
     Wind (and therefore camera wobble);
     Bright sunlight at different times of the day;
     Shadows covering part or the majority of the court;
     Dark or overcast conditions;
     Artifical floodlights.

  15. CONTINUED
    Indoor venues are obviously easier in which to track because
    conditions are far less variable. Quite simply, Hawk-Eye can
    track accurately and reliable in any conditions, on any surface.
    Although the accuracy of the existing system has been tried
    and tested, the company is constantly trying to develop and
    refine the system. Hawk-Eye listens to feedback from
    customers and officials to ensure that Hawk-Eye remains the
    very best in the market.

  16. APPLICATIONS
    1.It finds its application in different games like
    cricket, tennis and snooker.
    2.It has also been implemented in computer games to give reality to the game.
    It is basically used in cricket for giving L.B.W
    Descisions.

  17. CONTINUED
    It is used in tennis for making
    line calls.
    It is used in snooker for
    producing players line of
    view , shadowed area and blue dot.

  18. FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS
    1. Hawk-Eye is already working on implementing a system for
    basketball.
    2. The Football Association has declared the system as "ready for
    inspection by FIFA", after tests suggested that the results of a goal-
    line incident could be relayed to the match referee within half-a-
    second (IFAB, the governing body for the Laws of the game, insists
    on goals being signalled immediately e.g. within five seconds).

  19. PLAYERS SPEAK
    1.“As a player, I want to know the line calls are as accurate as
    technology will allow. In that sense, [Hawk-Eye] is great news for all
    players.”
    Maria Sharapova
    2.“On top of getting just the calls right time after time, which will be
    nice, it’ll add another aspect for TV viewers. If a player has two
    challenges per set, it will add drama and excitement. This will add to
    tennis and take out a lot of human error.”

  21. FIREFOX HACK FOR SUPER SPEED
    BROWSING!
    Increase the Speed in Which Firefox loads pages
    1. Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit Enter.
    (Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a
    time. When you enable pipeliningit will make several at once, which
    really speeds up page loading.)
    2. Alter the entries as follows:
    Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true”
    Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true”
    Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 10.
    This means it will make 10 requests at once.

  22. 3. Lastly, right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it
    “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0“;.(Zero)
    This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on
    information it receives. If you’re using a broadband connection you’ll
    load pages faster now.
    Optionally (for even faster web browsing) here are some more options
    for your about:config (you might have to create some of these entries
    by Right Click –> New– > Interger or String
    network.dns.disableIPv6: set “false”
    “content.notify.backoffcount”: set “5“; (Five)
    “plugin.expose_full_path”: set “true”.
    “ui.submenuDelay”: set “0; (zero)

  23. REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF RAM
    FIREFOX USES FOR IT’S CACHE
    FEATURE
    Here’s how to do it:
    1. Type “about:config” (no quotes) in the adress bar in the browser.
    2. Find “browser.sessionhistory.max_total_viewer”
    3. Set it’s value to “0“;(Zero)

  26.  The main purpose is to replacement of wired technology for
    transferring voice and some other data.
     Actually blue tooth is open wireless connectivity,
     portable,
     available in mobile devices.
     It can transfer the data in short range of 5 meters from fixed and
    mobile devices.
    26

  29. Spry framework for Ajax
     Note: The Spry features in Dreamweaver CS4 use the latest Spry
    version: 1.6.1.
     The Spry framework for Ajax is a JavaScript library that provides
    easy-to-use yet powerful Ajax functionality that allows designers to
    build pages that provide a richer experience for their users. It is
    designed to take the complexity out of Ajax and allow designers to
    easily create Web 2.0 pages.
    29

    View Slide

  30.  The Spry framework is a way to incorporate XML, JSON or HTML
    data into pages using HTML, CSS, and a minimal amount of
    JavaScript, without the need for refreshing the entire page. Spry
    also provides easy to build and style widgets, providing advanced
    page elements for end users. The Spry framework is HTML-centric,
    and easy to implement for users with basic knowledge of HTML, CSS
    and JavaScript.
    30

    View Slide

  31.  The framework was designed such that the markup is simple and the
    JavaScript is minimal. The Spry framework can be used by anyone
    who is authoring for the web in their tool of choice.
     To see what is possible using Spry, check out the Spry home page,
    that show the Spry framework in action.
