Objectives: To present a Smart Energy Meter (SEM) that reduces errors effectively while generating the electricity bill. Methods: This SEM confluence of modern technology and existing electrical architecture, yet it is low-cost device suitable for Indian environment. The proposed only incorporated with current sensor other associated circuitry. Findings: A quantitative comparison between our SE...

Reading a rotary dial utility meter can be difficult and, more importantly, inaccurate. This paper has developed a computationally efficient method to read a rotary dial utility meter via image processing. The method has been developed as an algorithm with the ultimate goal of implementing the system with a microprocessor and inexpensive camera. The algorithm registers successive dial images, s...

Hypoxia and hypocapnia can cause broncho-constriction in human subjects, and this could have a bearing on performance at high altitude. The object of this study was to examine how pulmonary ventilatory functions during high-altitude trekking. This study is a cohort study on spirometric parameters at different altitudes. Fifty six healthy male volunteers from a university student population were...

In this article, we present the use of the Automatic Ground control points Extraction technique (AGE) for increasing the automation in the geometric correction of high-resolution satellite imagery. The method is based on an image-to-image matching between the satellite data and an already geocoded image (i.e., a digital orthophoto). By using an adaptive least squares matching algorithm which im...
