Background extraction is a fundamental task present in most computer vision applications such as video surveillance, optical motion capture or multimedia applications. In this paper we explore a particular foreground segmentation method based on the well-known Pixel-based Adaptive Segmenter (PBAS) algorithm, proposing modifications that will ease the hardware implementation. Also, the figures of merit...
This live demonstration is related to ISCAS track “Sensory Systems: Sensor Networks”. This live demo shows a wireless sensor network of custom-made differential capacitive sensors with the ZigBee protocol for snail pest detection. The wireless sensor network provides the snail occupation level of a given plantation area. Validation of the wireless sensor network in both controlled mini plots in a...
Pests due to terrestrial mollusks cause serious damage, both economic and ecological, in various types of agricultural plantations. In this paper we develop a low cost capacitive sensor that wirelessly communicates with the base, to monitor the activity of land snails. Once implemented physically, it has been tested in a controlled miniplot with favorable results.
