The proliferation of mobile cameras has popularized social sharing of videos captured at events such as sports matches, art performances, and lectures. Due to bandwidth and energy constraints, it is often not efficient or desirable to upload all captured videos to a server for sharing immediately after capturing. We propose a pull-based, on-demand mobile video sharing system that allows user to share...
Citizens of any country face civic problems in their day to day lives. They resort to the one of the several ways provided by the government to file their complaints. With advancements in technology, the complaint registration systems have evolved in different ways to simplify the task of registering as well as addressing the complaints. This research paper presents the architecture of a GPS based...
An algorithm is proposed for automatic geometric correction based on feedback of camera for multi-projector display system to address the problems exist in interactive manual geometric correction. The method is implemented in two steps. The first step performs an approximate correction which does not involve manual interaction. This step establishes geometric relations involving the screen space,...
There are several Optical Character Recognition (OCR) mobile applications on the market running on mobile devices, both android and iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod) platforms. The limitations of mobile device processor hinder the possible execution of computationally intensive applications that need less time of process. This paper proposes a framework of Optical Character Recognition (OCR) on mobile device...
We propose a system for easily preparing arbitrary wide-area environments for subsequent real-time tracking with a handheld device. Our system evaluation shows that minimal user effort is required to initialize a camera tracking session in an unprepared environment. We combine panoramas captured using a handheld omnidirectional camera from several viewpoints to create a point cloud model. After the...
During a mealtimes, we usually enjoy not only eating itself but also having a conversation with other people together. Having a meal with our family or close friends is so enjoyable and an easy task because we already know each other. However we also have a chance to eat with acquaintances or totally new persons. In these cases, it is thought that the conversation would be difficult to continue because...
The widespread use of smartphones has prompted the provision of a variety of services that exploit sensors installed in the smartphones, such as GPS, and augmented reality (AR). This paper proposes a method in which a user of such a smart terminal receives a message from a person passing by, and has the message displayed alongside the image of that person on the screen of the camera installed in the...
An exertainment support system called Remote Kenken is proposed in this paper. The game resembles hopscotch. Pressure sensors are used to determine the position of the feet of a player and judge the accuracy of the steps during jumping. Victory or defeat is decided by the accuracy of the step and time required. The support system is networked to a server to allow the game to be played remotely by...
In this article a multichannel information system to build and deliver rich user experiences in exhibits and museums is presented. The system was designed to use information about a particular exhibit or museum while delivering a wide user experience based on different distribution channels. The overall information is used to build different solutions that can be delivered simultaneously on different...
Mobile devices come embedded with various sensors of which camera is most widely used, however operated by the device owner for the individual needs. We feel that there is a potential for these camera sensors to be used in an on demand participatory fashion for a variety of community based sensing applications. In this paper, we propose forming local participatory camera networks for on-demand object...
In this demonstration, we present VisiAds, a vision-based online advertising platform which allows advertisers to bid on image content as opposed to text keywords. The demonstration shows an implementation of the platform designed specifically for mobile application scenarios. It can be used by advertisers to trigger and deliver multiple advertisements based on a query image captured from a consumer-grade...
