The DINION IP dynamic 7000 HD camera is a 1080p30 progressive scan CMOS camera that uses Boschdesigned digital imaging technology to achieve a very high dynamic range. The camera uses an internal feedback system based on the intelligent analysis of the scene, to re-tune the video processing. This provides better detail in the areas that matter and better all-round performance, day or night. Fea...

This paper discusses the pivot pattern of tongue movement. In this pattern, there is a point in the vocal tract where there is no motion, but there is motion at points of the vocal tract anterior and posterior to the pivot point. Based on tongue edge tracings of frames from ultrasound and x-ray dynamic imaging of the vocal tract, I will show that the pivot pattern is used in a variety of sequen...

In this paper, we present a practical system for enhancing the quality of Low Dynamic Range (LDR) videos using High Dynamic Range (HDR) background images. Our technique relies on the assumption that the HDR information is static in the video footage. This assumption can be valid in many scenarios where moving subjects are the main focus of the footage and do not have to interact with moving lig...

Methods of increasing linear optical dynamic range of commercial photocamera for optical-digital imaging systems are described. Use of such methods allows to use commercial photocameras for optical measurements. Experimental results are reported.

This review describes the use of ultrasound for inducing and retaining cell-cell contact in multi-well microplates combined with live-cell fluorescence microscopy. This platform has been used for studying the interaction between natural killer (NK) cells and cancer cells at the level of individual cells. The review includes basic principles of ultrasonic particle manipulation, design criteria w...
