Nowadays, in-flight comfort has become an essential characteristic to survive in domestic airline businesses. Air hostesses’ quality of service and response time to customer demand plays a vital role in enhancing quality of the flight experience and passenger satisfaction. However, additional requirements on air hostess expose them to fatigue which could eventually result in job dissatisfac...

Measurements of time of flight (TOF) mobility of organic semiconductors become difficult when the mobility values are high, since the electronic signals overlap with the noise of the short part in drift time. Such noise of the short part in the drift time in the TOF method for measurements of carrier mobility was reduced by three methods: (1) longer distance (3.5 m) between sample and the N(2) ...

Time-of-Flight (TOF) cameras relate to a very recent and growing technology which has already proved to be useful for computer vision tasks. In this paper we investigate on the use of a TOF camera to perform video-based graffiti detection, which can be thought of as a monitoring system able to detect acts of vandalism such as dirtying, etching and defacing walls and objects surfaces. Experiment...

The aim of this work is to evaluate the influence of absorption processes on the Time Of Flight (TOF) of the light scattered out of a thick medium in the forward direction. We use a Monte-Carlo simulation with temporal phase function and Debye modes. The main result of our study is that absorption inside the particle induces a decrease of the TOF on a picosecond time scale, measurable with a fe...

Well, someone can decide by themselves what they want to do and need to do but sometimes, that kind of person will need some time of flight cameras and microsoft kinect references. People with open minded will always try to seek for the new things and information from many sources. On the contrary, people with closed mind will always think that they can do it by their principals. So, what kind ...

The status of our development of strip anode MRPCs in the framework of the FOPI-ToF upgrade project is reviewed. For the counter readout we have developed a fast FEE (front-end-electronics) offering a high gain ða 200Þ at high bandwidth ðdf 1000MHzÞ and a new TAC-digitization system with an internal resolution of stp15 ps. In order to optimize the signal shape variations, strip/pitch configurat...

We adapt the well-known face detection algorithm of Viola and Jones [1] to work on the range and intensity data from a time-offlight camera. The detector trained on the combined data has a higher detection rate (95.3%) than detectors trained on either type of data alone (intensity: 93.8%, range: 91.2%). Additionally, the combined detector uses fewer image features and hence has a shorter runnin...
