Analysis of Vehicle Detection with WSN-Based Ultrasonic Sensors

Existing traffic information acquisition systems suffer from high cost and low scalability. To address these problems, the application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has been studied, as WSN-based systems are highly scalable and have a low cost of installing and replacing the systems. Magnetic, acoustic and accelerometer sensors have been considered for WSN-based traffic surveillance, but t...

Objects Localization and Differentiation Using Ultrasonic Sensors 521 Objects Localization and Differentiation Using Ultrasonic Sensors

The most crucial problem for the mobile robot navigation is obstacles detection and their localization. The determination of obstacle position should be as accurate as possible in order to support robot self-localization procedures. In order to increase its efficiency the recognition of some feature of obstacles shapes should be done. The most advanced systems use laser range-finder and vision ...

Vehicle Tracking for an Evasive Manoeuvres Assistant Using Low-Cost Ultrasonic Sensors

Many driver assistance systems require knowledge of the vehicle environment. As these systems are increasing in complexity and performance, this knowledge of the environment needs to be more complete and reliable, so sensor fusion combining long, medium and short range sensors is now being used. This paper analyzes the feasibility of using ultrasonic sensors for low cost vehicle-positioning and...

3D Gesture Acquisition Using Ultrasonic Sensors

Research and musical creation with gestural-oriented interfaces have recently seen a renewal of interest and activity at Ircam. In the course of several musical projects, issued either by from young composers enrolled in the Cursus of Composition and Computer Music or by guests artists, the Pedagogy and Creation departments of Ircam have proposed various solutions for gesture-controlled sound s...
