UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Saccharide materials have been used for centuries as binding media, to paint, write and illuminate manuscripts and to apply metallic leaf decorations. Although the technical literature often reports on the use of plant gums as binders, actually several other saccharide materials can be encountered in paint samples, not only as major binders, but also as additives. In th...

Budapest Közút is developing ROad Data Information System based on mobile laser scanning since 2013. All public roads (cca. 5000 km) are surveyed by MLS (Riegl VMX450) in survey grade accuracy and all visible road assets has been digitized and loaded to a complex 3D GIS environment. Since the first full coverage had been done in 2014 the whole city has also been updated - being one of the few l...

Synchrotron FTIR microspectroscopy was used to characterise and assess the chemical diversity of electrocoat primer, primer surfacer and basecoats of automotive paint samples from 75 vehicles representing a range of international car manufacturers. Significant diversity was found in the synchrotron FTIR data from the primer surfacer coats. Classification using principal component analysis revea...

In the field of ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems), it is important to automate the cruising and safety driving. We consider to detection the area of the cruising lane of the vehicles. The method has been presented to detect the road area uses the division line such as the white or yellow marking line. Although, when we regard to the ordinary road environment, we suppose that the division line...

Recently, autonomous vehicles, particularly self-driving cars, have received significant attention owing to rapid advancements in sensor and computation technologies. In addition to traffic sign recognition, road lane detection is one of the most important factors used in lane departure warning systems and autonomous vehicles for maintaining the safety of semi-autonomous and fully autonomous sy...

This white paper discusses methods and findings from one of Novetta’s many approaches to vulnerability assessment: the fabrication of non-gelatinous artifacts for capacitive fingerprint sensors. We present methods of evaluating artifact performance relative to that of live presentations and gummy fingerprint artifacts. Two sets of artifacts are comprised of latex face paint or acrylic fabric pa...
