Reconfigurable Logic Circuits for Intelligent Human Sensing

This paper presents the concept of the reconfigurable preprocessors for intelligent human sensing. Reconfigur-able logic can realize high-performance preprocessing of sensor data with flexibility and low power consumption. It is well known that the custom circuit for a specific application can accelerate the execution of that application. However, custom circuits were not so widely accepted, be...

Application of Reconfigurable Logic Technology to Intelligent Human Sensing

This paper presents our recent progress on the application of reconfigurable logic technology to intelligent human sensing. First, hardware specialization technique is presented to realize small and fast preprocessor based on reconfigurable logic devices. Second, a load balancing technique for heterogeneous systems is introduced. Then, a real-time aberration correction system for scanning trans...

Wireless Intelligent Sensing Devices

Structural health monitoring is the process of implementing a damage identification strategy for aerospace, civil and mechanical engineering infrastructure. Under this context, feature extraction is the process of identifying damage-sensitive information from measured data. Feature extraction is an essential component of a SHM system needed to convert raw sensor data into useful information abo...
