  • This paper presents automatic moving object detection method using the rotating camera covering larger area with a single camera. The proposed method is based on the edge segment matching which robust to the dynamic environment with illumination change and background movement. The proposed algorithm presents an edge segment based background panorama image generation method minimizing the distortion due to image stitching, the background image generation method using Generalized Hough Transformation which can reliably register the current image to the panorama image overcoming the stitching distortions, the moving edge segment extraction method that overcome viewpoint difference and distortion. The experimental results show that the proposed method can detect correctly moving object under illumination change and camera vibration.

  • Recently, the spread of deep learning environments has increased the importance of dataset generation. In this paper, we aim to design and implement a method for capturing rotating images of objects and performing object tracking on them for efficient dataset generation. The method implemented in this paper is to obtain image data by rotating objects to capture multiple angles of objects, detect and track objects through background removal and difference image processing techniques, showing them on screen to monitor object tracking results in the current frame. It was then implemented to return object location data within the image for use as a dataset.

  • Background: Few studies have examined the effects of a forward rotating shift pattern on police employee performance and well-being. This study sought to compare sleep duration, cognitive performance, and vigilance at the start and end of each shift within a three-shift, forward rotating shift pattern, common in United Kingdom police forces. Methods: Twenty-three police employee participants were recruited from North Yorkshire Police (mean age, 43 years). The participants were all working the same, 10-day, forward rotating shift pattern. No other exclusion criteria were stipulated. Sleep data were gathered using both actigraphy and self-reported methods; cognitive performance and vigilance were assessed using a customized test battery, comprising five tests: motor praxis task, visual object learning task, NBACK, digital symbol substitution task, and psychomotor vigilance test. Statistical comparisons were conducted, taking into account the shift type, shift number, and the start and end of each shift worked. Results: Sleep duration was found to be significantly reduced after night shifts. Results showed a significant main effect of shift type in the visual object learning task and NBACK task and also a significant main effect of start/end in the digital symbol substitution task, along with a number of significant interactions. Conclusion: The results of the tests indicated that learning and practice effects may have an effect on results of some of the tests. However, it is also possible that due to the fast rotating nature of the shift pattern, participants did not adjust to any particular shift; hence, their performance in the cognitive and vigilance tests did not suffer significantly as a result of this particular shift pattern.

  • The positions of rotating sound sources have been localized by experiments with the Doppler effects removed. In order to do-Dopplerize the sound signals emitted from moving sources, two kinds of signal reconstruction methods were applied. One is the forward propagation method and the other is the backward propagation method. Forward propagation method analyze the source emission time based on the instantaneous distance between sensors and the assumed source position, then the signals are reconstructed with respect to the emission time. On the other hand, the backward method uses time delay to do-Dopplerize the acquired data for the received time of reference. In both techniques, the reconstructed signal data were processed using beamforming algorithm to produce power distributions at the frequency of interest. Experiments have been carried out for varying frequencies, rotating speeds and the object distances. Forward propagation method has shown better performance in locating source position than the backward propagation method.

  • Characteristic analysis of the depth measurement system with a laser, a camera and a rotating mirror has been done and the parameter calibration technique for it has been proposed. In the proposed depth measurement system, the laser beam is reflected to the object by the rotating mirror and again the position of the laser beam is observed through the same mirror by the camera. The depth of the object pointed by the laser beam is computed depending on the pixel position on the CCD. There involved several number of internal and external parameters such as inter-pixel distance, focal length, position and orientation of the system components in the depth measurement error. In this paper, it is shown through the error sensitivity analysis of the parameters that the most important parameters in the sense of error sources are the angle of the laser beam and the inter pixel distance. The calibration techniques to minimize the effect of such major parameters are proposed.

  • Flying Saucer(flying disk type UFO) is a rotating disk that flies through the air. Thus, the aerodynamical features of the Flying Saucer can be estimated by taking a close look on the aerodynamics of the rotating disk. In the present paper, the aerodynamics of the rotating disk are reviewed focusing on the their application to the possibility of the UFO type VTOL aircraft. Finally, a combination of Avro Aircraft and Frisbee concepts is suggested as a possible new UFO type VTOL aircraft.

  • In this paper a new positioning method for cylindrical work pieces on rotating supports is studied. A work piece on a rotating axis is positioned by an impact drive mechanism (IDM) whose driving parameters are steadily updated by observing the object movement. The application of this actuator and the use of a multi-functional PC board for all necessary input and output operations such as e.g. data acquisition or wave form generation allow an alignment with a precision of less than 1.mu.m in a relatively short time and at low cost compared to conventional methods.

  • We propose a camera system to acquire indoor stereo omni-directional images and its calibration method. These images can be utilized for indoor precise mapping and sophisticated imagebased services. The proposed system is configured with a rotating stereo line camera system, providing stereo omni-directional images appropriate to stable stereoscopy and precise derivation of object point coordinates. Based on the projection model, we derive a mathematical model for the system calibration. After performing the system calibration, we can estimate object points with an accuracy of less than ${\pm}16cm$ in indoor space. The proposed system and calibration method will be applied to indoor precise 3D modeling.

  • A method for measuring the accuracy of rotating objects was studied. Rotating axis errors are significant; such as the spindle error of a manufacturing machine which results in the surface roughness of machined work pieces. Three capacitance type displacement sensors were used to measure the rotating master ball position. The sensors were mounted to the three orthogonal points on the spindle axis. The measurement data were analyzed and shown for rotating spindle accuracy, not only for average roundness error but also for spindle volumetric positional error during the revolutions. This method is simple and economical for industrial field use with regular inspection of rotating machines using portable equipment. Measuring and analyzing time using this method takes only a couple of hours. This method can also measure microscopic amplitude and 3-dimensional direction of vibrating objects.

  • This paper presents a method of the optimum design for rotating shaft of centrifugal pump. That is, the object is to optimize the system in stability at the operating speed, unbalance response in the vicinity of the rotor critical speed, leakage flow of the seals. The objective function is composed of these three elements and is minimized by changing seal cleareance, diamoters, and lengths. A typical double suction centrifugal pump is analyzed and its objective function is presented. Then the optimum dimensions of seals are obtained, and vibration characteristics at both initial and optimum conditions are investigated.
