BumperCar 2.1.1
BumperCar is a Mac OS X Web browser for kids, full-featured and easy to use more>>
It offers unparalleled content control and customization features, making it the most powerful Web browser for concerned educators and parents on the Macintosh.
BumperCar earned a prestigious Best of Show Award at MacWorld San Francisco 2004.
BumperCars start page is attractive, and encourages children to explore a collection of kid-friendly sites. Browse the Internet by clicking on any of the categories, or type a destination in the Address or Search fields. Children may also guide the bumper car into the Tunnel of Mystery to be teleported to a kid-safe site.
BumperCar can be configured to be in either a Home, School or Pre-School setting, with personalized features appropriate for each location.
The colorful interface artwork also appears on custom error pages, such as when BumperCar blocks a page.
The Grown-Ups Menu contains the features of BumperCar that set it apart from other browsers. In addition to the browsers preset preferences, the Safety Settings item allows you to individualize your kids Internet experience. Only someone with an administrator password can adjust the Safety Settings. This prevents children without administrator access from bypassing or changing the selected restrictions. Mac OS X makes multi-user computing easy, but just in case you dont use multiple accounts, or an administrator forgets to logout, the password must be entered every time.
BumperCar uses OmniWeb technology from The Omni Group, providing the stable cocoa foundation necessary for any modern Mac Web browser. It also uses Apples WebCore and JavaCore frameworks that are built into Mac OS X, just like Apples Safari. WebCore is one of the most standards-compliant page renderers available on any platform. As these frameworks improve, BumperCar inherits their improvements.
BumperCar handles the following technologies elegantly, without the need for installing extra plug-ins: HTML, XML, XHTML, DOM, CSS, Java, JavaScript, QuickTime, Flash, and Shockwave.

Nonio C 9.2
Model large topographic and cartographic surveys. more>>
Terrain is modeled using a method of triangulation, a valuable alternative to methods based on the generation of an orthogonal grid, which does not often correspond well to real-life conditions.
Two surfaces can be modeled simultaneously, allowing the comparison of the original terrain with the modified or of two different project phases.
Points data may be inserted using the keyboard, a graphic tablet, field survey, or ASCII file.The model is created either automatically or by imposing breaklines interactively with the mouse, recreating as closely as possible a representation of the actual terrain.
Contour lines are drawn automatically according to set intervals.
Once the necessary data is entered, the land model may be altered by simulated land movement operations. Values such as areas, volumes, and slope differences are computed automatically by a special calculator.
The model can be viewed from any vantage point through a series of automatically generated images (sections and axons). The images can be drawn in a variety of representational forms (with contour lines, in cross-grid form, or with shadings, hatchings, or color according to slope classes).
All modifications can be seen in real time in a continuously rendered 3D view. It is possible to fly around the terrain or do a "walkthrough" in real time. The rendering can be enhanced using plug-in renderers. Textures may be imported to the QuickDraw 3D view to simulate materials or soils. Movement throughout the model is controlled using the mouse or keyboard.
The 3D window can be exported in QuickTime VR Object format for making QuickTime films using other applications.
A land model created with Nonio C may be exported to an architectural program, such as Interstudios own Domus.Cad or Graphisofts ArchiCad, where an architectural model may be placed directly on it. The reverse operation may also be performed: an archiectural model can be imported by Nonio C and placed on the land model.
Main features:
- supports documents of up to 500,000 points
- imports in XYZ ASCII, DWG 3D, DXF 3D and QuickDraw 3D MetaFile formats
- exports in Domus.Cad, GDL, QuickDraw 3D MetaFile, DigiCad, DXF 2D and 3D, DXF Polygon and Facet formats
- Imports textures
- supports plug-in renderers
- supports Drag and Drop for textures, text, and images
- two surfaces may be worked simultaneously
- automatic generation of triangles, contour lines, and surfaces
- allows direct intervention of model using break lines
- vertical sections from polygons
- special calculator for surface and volume calculations
- integrates Domus.Cad information
Enhancements:
- Raster images modification (rotation, scaling, resolution, colors and transparency).
- Z moving of the selected points. Two new modeling functions allow you to modify the Z axis of your model in selected points, either by inserting the new measurements or by using the mouse.
- Correction of maps deformations. This is useful for correcting deformations in map supports, which frequently differ in X and Y directions.
