چکیده

An observer's knowledge of a moving target's direction and velocity enhances detectability. In addition, knowledge of direction and velocity speeds an observer's reaction to the motion of a previously stationary target. Since rival, nonperceptual hypotheses can be ruled out, these effects represent a direct modulation of vision by mental set.

Research on Acquisition Probability of the Visible Light Reconnaissance Equipment to Ground Targets

The detection probability of visible light reconnaissance equipment is one of key indexes to assess the performance of the system. The detection probability is determined by many factors, such as atmospheric visibility, target-background contrast, target size and distance, solar elevation angle etc. Based on the detection probability model of the visible light reconnaissance equipment to gain t...

Toward High Fidelity 3D Video: Multiple Active Camera Assignment

In this paper, we present a multiple active camera assignment for high fidelity 3D video of a moving object, mainly an acting human body. The camera system is made up of cameras with long focal length lenses for high resolution input images. However, such cameras can capture only partial views of the object. Our goal is to assign the camera set to the different parts of the moving object so as ...

Atmospheric Visibility Measurements Using Video Cameras: Relative Visibility

16. Abstract (Limit: 200 words) Poor visibility conditions often lead to large-scale chain accidents causing human fatalities and property damage. Such visibility-related vehicle accidents could have been prevented if motorists were warned ahead of time to reduce speed and remain cautious before moving into the poor visibility zone. The objective of this research was to advance the visibility m...

Fixed-point FPGA Implementation of a Kalman Filter for Range and Velocity Estimation of Moving Targets

Tracking filters are extensively used within object tracking systems in order to provide consecutive smooth estimations of position and velocity of the object with minimum error. Namely, Kalman filter and its numerous variants are widely known as simple yet effective linear tracking filters in many diverse applications. In this paper, an effective method is proposed for designing and implementa...
