This research presents an effectively autonomous method that can save time and increases productivity for an assembly line in industry by using a 6DOF manipulator and computer vision. The objects are flat, aluminum type and randomly stacked in a box. Firstly, 2D color image processing is performed to label the object, then using 3D pose…

Face recognition technology becoming pervasive in the fields of computer vision, image processing, and pattern recognition. However, face recognition accuracy rates will decrease if training is done on disguised images with covered objects on a face area. This paper aims to propose a state-of-the-art face recognition methodology which could be applied in Internet of Things…

This work presents an innovative solution for parking-sharing of private institutions based on daily occupancy patterns and using different real time tracking methods of vacant parking slots. The research objective consists in finding the most accurate cars detection method, for determining of vacant parking slots and updating them on application web page. Beside the technical…

Vowel classification is an essential part of speech recognition. In classical studies, this problem is mostly handled by using spectral domain features. In this study, a novel approach is proposed for vowel classification based on the visual features of speech waveforms. In sound vocalizing, the position of certain organs of the human vocal system such…

Robotic catching of thrown objects is one of the common robotic tasks, which is explored in a number of papers. This task includes subtask of tracking and forecasting the trajectory of the thrown object. Here we propose an algorithm for estimating future trajectory based on video signal from two cameras. Most of existing implementations use…

Recently, with the rapid progress in image processing and three-dimensional (3D) technologies, stereoscopic images are available not only on television but also in theaters and gaming consoles. Asthenopia and visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) are well-known phenomena experienced by users while viewing video clips, playing immersive video games, and other such activities. In previous studies,…

After studying the aviation problems in Iraq, on one hand, and because Iraq has various weather characteristics due to its different terrains (i.e. mountains, plain fields, and deserts). We discussed these problems with pilots and aviation specialists, and came to the conclusion that the main offset faced is vision deficiency is foggy and dusty weather.…

This paper presents a developed low cost system for human gait analysis. Two web cameras placed in opposite sides of a treadmill are used to acquire images of a person walking at different speeds on a treadmill, carrying a set of passive marks located at strategic places of its body. The treadmill also has passive…
