Design of a FPGA-based colour detection system for detection of moving objects.

In construction automation the tracking of worker location or a moving object is important for labor monitoring, resource management, and machine coordination. For object tracking a camera is often utilized to obtain ...

Distance measurement methodologies based on the digital camera usually require time-consuming calibration procedures, some are even derived from complicated image processing algorithms resulting in low picture frame rates. ...

This paper presents a new system- on-programmable chip (SOPC) design for vehicle braking control systems. Unlike the conventional control theoretic or fuzzy logic control approaches, where control signals are mostly computed ...

This paper presents an efficient control strategy for magnetorheological (MR) dampers embedded in building structures to mitigate quake-induced vibrations. In this work, MR dampers are used as semi-active devices, taking ...
