Building a LiDAR-based Position Visualizer—Rationale
Rebecca Vieyra, Chrystian Vieyra, Mina Glenburg-Johnson, Daniel O'Brien, and Colleen Megowan Romanowicz Imagine that your smartphone could project a set of invisible light beams forward, and use that information to tell you where you are with respect to your surroundings. For many owners of modern phones, this is already a reality. (Got an iPhone Pro? See the video below to learn about LiDAR. Many Android phones also have this capability). However, the hardware is currently u

NSF Awards $573K for Research on LiDAR with Physics Toolbox
Rebecca Vieyra, Chrystian Vieyra, Mina Glenburg-Johnson, Daniel O'Brien, and Colleen Megowan Romanowicz The National Science Foundation (NSF), one of the worldwide leaders in science and science education funding, has awarded $573,461 to the American Modeling Teachers Association in coordination with Vieyra Software, Arizona State University, and a team of educational researchers and science educators. This proposal aims to create and test a STEM education tool using iOS’ sca
