The second ( more recent and more advanced ) technique employs focal plane array detection for infrared chemical imaging, where the image contrast is determined by the response of individual sample regions to particular IR wavelengths selected by the user.

In their book, Smallpox and its Eradication, Fenner and colleagues describe how vaccine supply shortages during the Biafra smallpox campaign led to the development of the focal vaccination technique, later adopted worldwide by the World Health Organization, which led to the early and cost effective interruption of smallpox transmission in west Africa and elsewhere.

Byrd evolved a special ' cell ' technique for setting the petitionary clauses such as ‘ miserere mei ’ or ‘ libera nos Domine ’ which form the focal point for a number of the texts.

Zoom burst is a technique which entails the variation of the focal length of a zoom lens during a longer exposure.

An early example of this is when Walter Rudolf Hess developed focal brain stimulation technique to examine a cat ’ s brain controls of vegetative functions in addition to other behaviors.

A commonly used focusing technique is zone focusing — setting a fixed focal distance and shooting from that distance — as an alternative to autofocus, particularly using wide angle lenses with their increased depth of field.

The lower dantian is particularly important as the focal point of breathing technique as well as the center of balance and gravity.

Its TI technique includes five focal points:

A technique presented in 2006 does away with the display medium altogether, using a focused pulsed infrared laser ( about 100 pulses per second ; each lasting a nanosecond ) to create balls of glowing plasma at the focal point in normal air.

Confocal microscopy is an optical imaging technique used to increase optical resolution and contrast of a micrograph by using point illumination and a spatial pinhole to eliminate out-of-focus light in specimens that are thicker than the focal plane.

Positron emission tomography ( PET scanning ) is becoming the most useful imaging technique and usually indicates whether the entire pancreas is producing too much insulin or whether a focal area is to blame.

Today the term " zone focus " is used, particularly in North America, to the technique of setting a fixed focal distance ( turning off autofocus ), and often fixed aperture, hence fixing the depth of field, and then taking photographs at that distance ; the DOF can be read off of the DOF scale on the focus ring, hence the term " zone ".

This technique requires both a camera capable of calculating the distance information, as well as the lens being capable of communicating the focal distance to the body.

Right angle weave lends itself better as a technique to 3D beading, but peyote stitch offers the advantage of more tightly knit beads, which is sometimes necessary to properly portray an object in 3 dimensions.

In improv, this is more commonly known as ' space object work ' or ' space work ', not ' mime ', and the props and locations created by this technique, as ' space objects '.

Dispersion staining is an optical technique that results in a colored image of a colorless object.

This technique is only tested when a person has overcome avoidance of or escape from the phobic object or situation.

In computer science, reference counting is a technique of storing the number of references, pointers, or handles to a resource such as an object, block of memory, disk space or other resource.

Stop motion ( also known as stop frame ) is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object appear to move on its own.

It is a metallurgical processing technique in which ultrasonic energy is applied to a metal object.

In this way a solid object is created indirectly by using wireframe technique.

This technique has some advantage as follow-1 ) Generally the 3 dimensional solid objects are complex, wireframe model can be viewed in 1 dimension so this compactness helps designer. 2 ) The solid object can be modified further.

It also had a gdt command ( game debugging technique, a reference to the DDT debugger ) which enabled the player to move any object ( including the player ) to any room.

The technique works since the laser power ablates one side of the object, giving an impulse that changes the eccentricity of the object's orbit.

Early examples of the foreshadowing technique of repetitive designation, now known as " Chekhov's gun ", occur in the One Thousand and One Nights, which contains " repeated references to some character or object which appears insignificant when first mentioned but which reappears later to intrude suddenly in the narrative ".

Snagging is a technique where the object is to hook the fish in the body.

Aerography is a technique in which a 3-dimensional object is used as a stencil with spraypainting.

Photogrammetry is a measurement technique for which the co-ordinates of the points in 3D of an object are determined by the measurements made in two photographic images ( or more ) taken starting from different positions, usually from different passes of an aerial photography flight.

This technique involves the use of an instrument called a scanning Kelvin probe ( SKP ), which measures the voltage, or electrical potential, at pre-set intervals over the surface of an object on which a fingerprint may have been deposited.

Bump mapping is a technique in computer graphics for simulating bumps and wrinkles on the surface of an object.

Differential heat treatment ( also called selective heat treatment or local heat treatment ) is a technique used during heat treating to harden or soften certain areas of a steel object, creating a difference in hardness between these areas.

A similar technique of using a cookie is simulated in 3D computer graphics, where using an alpha map as a cookie ( sometimes called a light texture ) to cast shadows on 3D objects is simulated by applying an alpha texture to an emitting light source in the 3D scene, typically a spot light type or a directional light type, to serve as a virtual cookie that projects shadows onto 3D object ( s ) by emitting light only through the transparent or translucent parts of the alpha texture, thus simulating the effect of a cucoloris as used in its real-world counterpart.

Forced perspective is a technique that employs optical illusion to make an object appear farther away, closer, larger or smaller than it actually is.

The simplest technique, adding up the pixel counts within a circle centered on the object and subtracting of an average sky count, is known as aperture photometry.

The object-modeling technique ( OMT ) is an object modeling language for software modeling and designing.

A related technique ( which has found applicability in some surrealist compositions ) is aerography, in which spray-painting is done around a three-dimensional object to create a negative of the object instead of a positive of a stencil design.

The useful suggestion of Professor David Hawkins which considers culture as a third stage in biological evolution fits quite beautifully then with our suggestion that science has provided us with a rather successful technique for building protective artificial environments.

And to do this requires first of all the kind of information about people which is provided by the scientists in industrial anthropology and consumer research, who, for example, tell Courtenay that three days is the `` optimum priming period for a closed social circuit to be triggered with a catalytic cue-phrase '' -- which means that an effective propaganda technique is to send an idea into circulation and then three days later reinforce or undermine it.

He could no longer build anything, whether a private residence in his Pennsylvania county or a church in Brazil, without it being obvious that he had done it, and while here and there he was taken to task for again developing the same airy technique, they were such fanciful and sometimes even playful buildings that the public felt assured by its sense of recognition after a time, a quality of authentic uniqueness about them, which, once established by an artist as his private vision, is no longer disputable as to its other values.

What with traders trading for so many different objectives, and what with there being so many unique and individualized market theories and trading techniques in use, and more coming into use all the time, it is hard to imagine how any particular theory or technique could acquire enough `` fans '' to invalidate itself.

Thus while his theory or technique may not be oversubscribed, it is commonplace for bullish and bearish positions to become temporarily over-subscribed.

Then, advised by the Architect of the Capitol, the Joint Committee for the Library, traditionally responsible for the works of art in the building, ordered the space cleared and painted in fresco, to show `` the Peace after the Civil War '', `` the Spanish-American War '', and `` the Birth of Aviation '', to match as nearly as feasible Brumidi's technique and composition.

Several companies also saw possibilities in using the technique for extruding or molding vinyl products with a slight cellular core that would reduce costs yet would not affect physical properties of the end product to any great extent.

The low cost and ease of fabrication of the dies for three-dimensional foam cutting plus the wide variety of shapes, dimensions, and contours that can be tailor-made to customer requirements has made the technique useful for producing case liners, materials handling containers, packaging and cushioning devices, and such novelties as soap dishes, toys, head rests, arch supports, and gas pedal covers.

Although this technique is simple and satisfactory, one practical difficulty does exist: the direction of true north must be known for each launch point.

Leningrad's Kirov Ballet, famous for classic purity of technique, begins its first U.S. tour in New York ( through Sept. 30 ).

Assuming ZF is consistent, Paul Cohen employed the technique of forcing, developed for this purpose, to show that the axiom of choice itself is not a theorem of ZF by constructing a much more complex model which satisfies ZF ¬ C ( ZF with the negation of AC added as axiom ) and thus showing that ZF ¬ C is consistent.

J. J. Thomson created a technique for separating atom types through his work on ionized gases, which subsequently led to the discovery of stable isotopes.

Amplitude modulation ( AM ) is a technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for transmitting information via a radio carrier wave.

There are complications, and the technique requires careful preparation and a level of skill and experience above that required for a single anchor.

Kedging or warping is a technique for moving or turning a ship by using a relatively light anchor.
