The advancement of augmented reality technology provides means for next generation art museum tour guides. In this study, we develop an AR navigation and multimedia guide for mobile devices and head-mounted displays. Visitors follow virtual routes to the exhibits and switch to multimedia commentary mode, pointing to exhibits with their phone camera for commentary information. Two case studies are conducted to evaluate the proposed system. The results show that the proposed system outperforms the guided tour and brochure tour in enhancing the user experience and attracting visitors to explore the exhibitions. This research contributes to the field of AR technology and cultural heritage education by offering a mobile application for indoor navigation and artwork exploring, allowing art museum visitors to actively engage with the exhibits and enhance their understanding while maintaining their interests.

The turn of the 15th and the 16th century was marked by turmoil including invasion of the Turks in the Balkans. Consequently, trade routes to the Mediterranean were disrupted, resulting in sudden demand for alternative sources of imported materials. For example, direct import of potassium alum had been gradually replaced by its local production from alunite, alum schists or grey pyritic bauxite.

Given the risk of zoonotic disease emergence, including new SARS-CoV-2 variants of COVID-19, rapid diagnostic tools are urgently needed to improve the control of the spread of infectious diseases. A one-pot triplex real-time RT-LAMP (reverse-transcription-loop-mediated isothermal amplification) assay, based on two regions of the genome SARS-CoV-2-specifically the Orf1ab and N genes-along with one internal control, the human RNase P gene, was developed. The multiplexing relies on the distinct melting peaks produced during an annealing step.

The Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) requires that all Doctor of Pharmacy programs complete a comprehensive self-study and associated report on a regular cycle. At first glance, success seems to be dependent upon nothing more than structured project management. However, often the process can be perceived as confusing, burdensome, and stressful.

Humans emerged across Africa shortly before 300 thousand years ago (ka). Although this pan-African evolutionary process implicates diverse environments in the human story, the role of tropical forests remains poorly understood. Here we report a clear association between late Middle Pleistocene material culture and a wet tropical forest in southern Côte d'Ivoire, a region of present-day rainforest.
