New information technologies have, to an unprecedented degree, come to reshape human relations, identities and communities both online and offline. As Internet narratives including online fiction, poetry and films reflect and represent ambivalent politics in China, the Chinese state wishes to enable the formidable soft power of this new medium whilst at the same time handling the ideological uncertainties it inevitably entails.

This book investigates the ways in which class, gender, ethnicity and ethics are reconfigured, complicated and enriched by the closely intertwined online and offline realities in China. It combs through a wide range of theories on Internet culture, intellectual history, and literary, film, and cultural studies, and explores a variety of online cultural materials, including digitized spoofing, microblog fictions, micro-films, online fictions, web dramas, photographs, flash mobs, popular literature and films. These materials have played an important role in shaping the contemporary cultural scene, but have so far received little critical attention. Here, the authors demonstrate how Chinese Internet culture has provided a means to intervene in the otherwise monolithic narratives of identity and community.

Offering an important contribution to the rapidly growing field of Internet studies, this book will also be of interest to students and scholars of Chinese culture, literary and film studies, media and communication studies, and Chinese society.

This book focuses on the intelligent perception and interaction module in intelligent robotic systems, establishes a multidisciplinary cross-fertilization knowledge system, explores the related technology frontiers and research frontiers as comprehensively as possible from the perspective of scene modeling and understanding, and develops a practical exposition of practical application tasks such as robotic navigation, obstacle avoidance, and grasping.

The main contents of this book include 3D reconstruction, scene exploration, scene understanding, robot navigation and obstacle avoidance, robot grasping and comprehensive project practice. Combining theory and practice, the book contains both basic algorithms and covers the latest technologies with detailed code or pseudo-code resources. This book can be used as a teaching reference book for information and intelligence related majors in higher education institutions, computer graphics, computer vision and intelligent robotics and other related fields, as well as a reference book for technicians engaged in related fields.

This book takes intelligent robots as the carrier, focuses on the technologies of environment perception and understanding and applying them to practical tasks such as robot navigation, obstacle avoidance and grasping. The book consists of six chapters. Chapters 1 to 3 provide a comprehensive introduction to the development and application of scene modeling and understanding technologies, including 3D reconstruction, scene exploration, and scene understanding. Chapters 4 and Chapter 5 provide a comprehensive introduction to the development and application of robot perception technologies, including visual relocalization and robot navigation, obstacle avoidance and grasping. Chapter 6 introduces comprehensive project practice with 3D scene modeling and understanding for robot tasks as an example, which facilitates readers to have a comprehensive understanding and mastery of theory and practice.
