The 3D representation of the world visual information has been a challenge for a long time both in the analogue and digital domains. At least in the past decade, 3D stereo-based solutions have become very common. However, several constraints and limitations ended up causing a negative impact on its user popularity and market deployment. Recent developments in terms of acquisition and display devices...
This paper presents the last developments towards vision-based target tracking by an AUV. The main concepts behind the visual relative localization are provided and the results from a statistical analysis for the relative localization algorithm are presented. The purpose of this analysis is to ensure properness of data used to feed controllers that are responsible for governing the AUV motion. A new...
This paper describes the implementation of a clip- on hardware extension to the standard tablet to create a gaming platform that can help people play the 4 hole variation of the ocarina musical instrument. A clip-on contraption was used to project the visual output into a physically layered parallax layer to create an interesting visual presentation. The proposed clip-on contraption was designed and...
The last decade has witnessed both the growth in Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) numbers and the introduction of the Airbus A380, the largest passenger aircraft to enter commercial service. Both introduce extremes at either end of the spectrum for weight and wingspan: into an Air Traffic Management (ATM) System where wake vortex separation minima have been unchanged for three decades. However, airport...
E-Learning as one of the learning support facilities provides various content types and interaction models inside. This wide range of content types inside e-Learning can be used for accommodating differences in learning styles among the students. In this research, we develop concept mapping between student characteristics and categories by Felder-Silverman Learning Style Model and appropriate content...
This paper introduces an approach for enabling visually impaired and blind people to practice jogging activities by 3D environment perception for course detection and collision avoidance, as well as feedback generation in an intuitive manner. Besides a system concept, first prototypic realizations, that confirm the general feasibility, are presented for this domain, which has not been addressed by...
Wireless sensor/actuator networks (WSNs) are hard to program, in particular so for business domain experts that have a good understanding of how WSNs can best be used to improve business operations. This contributes to hampering WSN adoption by enterprises. As business process modeling languages such as the Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) are well accessible to domain experts, they can...
We introduce a framework to predict the landing behaviour of a Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) from the appearance of the landing surface. We approach this problem by learning a mapping from visual texture observed from an onboard camera to the landing behaviour on a set of sample materials. In this case we exemplify our framework by predicting the yaw angle of the MAV after landing. Our framework demonstrates...
