For companies, TV commercial is a very important way to introduce and advertise their products. It is expensive to put an advertisement on TV. So these companies generally charge other companies to monitor that their TV commercials are broadcasted properly as contracted. Currently, these monitorings have been done manually. The monitoring company records all the TV programs and their air-times ...

UNLABELLED In order to fully capture the complexity of the behavioural, functioning and cognitive disturbances in Alzheimer Disease (AD) and related disorders information and communication techniques (ICT), could be of interest. This article presents using 3 clinical cases the feasibility results of an automatic video monitoring system aiming to assess subjects involved in a clinical scenario. ...

Currently on the market most of the image acquisition system is based on DSP. This image acquisition system's high cost, great power consumption, and volume restriction is not suitable for some simple applications. So in this project we will be using S3C2440 along with embedded Linux. S3C2440 is being manufactured by Samsung and is a RISC microprocessor based on ARM920T.The maximum frequency ca...

The presented robotic system has been designed and dedicated to remote control video cameras away from monitoring workspaces. The idea of the system is that the camera is installed on the flying platform of the cable driven manipulator. The manipulator is the slave part of the robotic system similar to the standard inverted Stewart platform that features six degrees of freedom. The presented ma...

BACKGROUND Given the unreliable self-report in patients with dementia, pain assessment should also rely on the observation of pain behaviors, such as facial expressions. Ideal observers should be well trained and should observe the patient continuously in order to pick up any pain-indicative behavior; which are requisitions beyond realistic possibilities of pain care. Therefore, the need for vi...

In this paper, we describe a system which enables the filtering, recording and delivery of digital video broadcasts over satellite, by matching incoming content descriptions to pre-defined sets of personal user preferences which have been defined using MPEG-7. The system enables the automatic analysis, selection and flexible, customized delivery of relevant content extracted from potentially hu...

The paper presents an NP-video rendering system based on natural phenomena. It provides a simple nonphotorealistic video synthesis system in which user can obtain a flow-like stylization painting and infinite video scene. Firstly, based on anisotropic Kuwahara filtering in conjunction with line integral convolution, the phenomena video scene can be rendered to flow-like stylization painting. Se...

The unnecessary long cross road waiting times for pedestrians is due to the inefficient traffic light system configuration and has led to the increasing number of traffic accidents involving pedestrians. This research designs, develops, constructs and tests the pedestrian monitoring approach to elevate the efficiency of traffic lights system configuration. This approach consists of two phases w...
