  • Detection of abandoned objects for smart video surveillance should be robust and accurate in various situations with low computational costs. This paper presents a new algorithm for abandoned object detection based on the dual background model. Through the template registration of a candidate stationary object and presence authentication methods presented in this paper, we can handle some complex cases such as occlusions, illumination changes, long-term abandonment, and owner's re-attendance as well as general detection of abandoned objects. The proposed algorithm also analyzes video frames at specific intervals rather than consecutive video frames to reduce the computational overhead. For performance evaluation, we experimented with the algorithm using the well-known PETS2006, ABODA datasets, and our video dataset in a live streaming environment, which shows that the proposed algorithm works well in various situations.

  • This paper develops an automatic go recording system based on image processing. We use Random Sample Consensus to detect the circular shape of stone and propose a set of methods to improve the computational overhead of RANSAC. The proposed scheme is not affected by the changes of stone location, illumination, and camera distance, which is different from existing methods. We implemented the proposed scheme into a working system and confirmed that the recording is feasible and the problems have been improved.

  • In this paper, a high-sensitivity low power photodetector using double gate (DG) MOSFET is proposed for the first time using change in subthreshold current under illumination as the sensitivity parameter. An analytical model for optically controlled double gate (DG) MOSFET under illumination is developed to demonstrate that it can be used as high sensitivity photodetector and simulation results are used to validate the analytical results. Sensitivity of the device is compared with conventional bulk MOSFET and results show that DG MOSFET has higher sensitivity over bulk MOSFET due to much lower dark current obtained in DG MOSFET because of its effective gate control. Impact of the silicon film thickness and gate stack engineering is also studied on sensitivity.

  • The photovoltaic generators have a nonlinear V-I characteristics and maximum power points which vary with the illumination levels and temperatures. Using maximum power point tracker with the intermediate converter can increase the system efficiency by matching the PV systems to the load. A novel MPPT control for photovoltaic system is proposed. The system input parameters are (dP, dI, and last incremental of duty ratio $L\deltaD$)and the output is the new incremental value (new ${\deltaD}$) according to the maximum power point under various illumination levels. Using fuzzy logic controller allows extracting the maximum power rapidly and without significant oscillations. Also FLC provides excellent features such as fast response, good performance and the ability to change the fuzzy parameters to improve control system.

  • The negative bias temperature instability on LTPS TFTs in a darkened and an illuminated environment was investigated. Experimental results reveal that the generation of interface state density showed no change between the different NBTI stresses. The degradation of the grain boundary trap under illumination was more significant than for the darkened environment.

  • This paper proposes a new method to process panoramic image stitching using SURF(Speeded Up Robust Features). Panoramic image stitching is considered a problem of the correspondence matching. In computer vision, it is difficult to find corresponding points in variable environment where a scale, rotation, view point and illumination are changed. However, SURF algorithm have been widely used to solve the problem of the correspondence matching because it is faster than SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transform). In this work, we also describe an efficient approach to decreasing computation time through the homography estimation using RANSAC(random sample consensus). RANSAC is a robust estimation procedure that uses a minimal set of randomly sampled correspondences to estimate image transformation parameters. Experimental results show that our method is robust to rotation, zoom, Gaussian noise and illumination change of the input images and computation time is greatly reduced.

  • RAZAKSAT is a second micro-satellite mission by Malaysian Satellite Program and is expected for launch in June 2004. Designed to orbit the earth at low-equatorial orbit, RAZAKSAT will meet Malaysia’s immediate needs to rapid data acquisition (real time and more repetitions) to address many operational issues of remote sensing applications, which require availability of current data sets. RAZAKSAT will be among the first remote sensing satellite to orbit the earth at low inclination along the equator, 9$^{\circ}$ with 685km altitude, hence, allows optimal geographical information and environment change within equatorial region be observed with a unique revisit characteristics. The satellite primary payload is MAC, a push-broom type camera with 2.5m of ground sampling distance (GSD) in panchromatic band and 5m of GSD in four multi-spectral bands. This paper describes on the variation of illumination anticipated from simulated RAZAKSAT image, examine its implication to its ground leaving radiances for major applications.

  • Specular reflection appears with metals, plastics, glasses and many other solid objects which are required to be inspected, assembled, moved, or processed automatically. Recongnizing such shiny objects with specular reflections is a hard problem for computer vision, since specular reflections appear, disappear, or change their shapes abruptly, due to tiny movements of the view. Traditionally, such specular reflections are discarded as annoying noise for recongnition purposes. In this paper a technique is represented for obtaining shapes of specular objects. The ring illumin- ation system employes a ring source which is positioned on the axis of the camera. The concept of the proposed method is that if specular objects are illuminated by the ring they show their own dis- tinctive specularity features in surface from which we can infer the shape of the object. A series of experiments are performed to evaluate the performance of this system.

  • The purpose of this study is conducted to evaluate the psycho-physiological effects of the dynamic lighting on VDT workers and to establish the dynamic lighting design guides. The main experimental factors are changes of illuminance. There were five conditions including 1) ripid change, 2) slow change at 300lx .approx. 500lx, 3) a static illuminance level at 300lx, and 4) rapid chante, 5) slow change at 200lx .approx. 300lx. The ranges of change were set typical illuminance level for the simple visual task requirement and reasonable to a VDT task ; 200-300-500lx. The psycho-physiological measurements used were EEG, R-R interval, CFF, near point accommodation, feeling perceived fatigue, and work performance. Analysis of psycho-physiological factors shows that higher illumination level conditions are more affirmative effects than lower on VDT workers under 500lx except for the results of feeling perceived fatigue. And about the speed of changes of illuminance level. The conditions of slow change were better than the others in terms of the work performance as well as psycho-physiological results.

  • This study conducted basic research on an LED lighting design to improve the learning effect from brain wave analysis. The ideal environments of mathematics, language, and creative region can be different. Inside the space where the lighting environment can be experienced directly, the test subject consisted of common elements. Other lighting was blocked completely in controlled lighting conditions. The brain waves were analyzed according to the change in color temperature and illumination. The analyzer used was fabricated by EMOTIV Company. In the variable RGB LED light, the color of the light was measured, and the brain wave of each subject was determined. LED lights have variable color temperature (3000 [K], 4500 [K]. 250 [lux], 70% -350 [lux], 100% -500 [lux]). As research results, the highest concentration in a mathematics study was in the general condition of a high color temperature, in which the optimal condition was a 6000[K] color temperature and 350[lux] illumination. The optimal condition for a language study was a 4500[K] color temperature and 500[lux] illumination, and that of the creative study was 3000[K] color temperature and 500[lux] illumination. Overall, the possibility of emotional ability and concentrated learning efficiency can be improved by the LED lighting design with the color temperature and illumination.
