A framing camera incorporating an ultra high resolution CCD detector array comprised of 9,216 x 9,216 pixels is discussed. The detector array measures 8 x 8 centimeters and has been scaled to be fabricated in one piece on a 5inch diameter silicon wafer. Pixel size is 8.75 x 8.75 microns which gives 57 lp/mm resolution. The detector array features a two frame per second readout capability which ...

We describe a learning-based approach to hand-eye coordination for robotic grasping from monocular images. To learn hand-eye coordination for grasping, we trained a large convolutional neural network to predict the probability that task-space motion of the gripper will result in successful grasps, using only monocular camera images and independently of camera calibration or the current robot po...

This paper presents a self-calibrating camera-assisted presentation interface that enables the user to control presentations using a laser pointer. The setup system consists of a computer connected to an LCD projector and a consumer-level digital camera aimed at the presentation screen. Although the locations, orientations and optical parameters of the camera and projector are unknown, the proj...

Viewing data sampled on complicated geometry such as a human pelvis or helix is hard. A single camera view is not sufficient to view different parts of such a complicated dataset. Multiple views are needed in order to completely examine the structure. In this paper, we present a general tool-kit consisting of a set of versatile widgets, namely the unwrap, the clipping, the fisheye, and the pano...

Abstract Introduction Inflatable penile prosthesis reservoir herniation or migration may occur with space of Retzius submuscular placement. The dangers high placement include bowel bladder perforation (from blind instrument passage) and unintentional peritoneal stretching small opening filling). Even under direct vision placement, reservoirs can ultimately reside into the scrotum, retroperitone...

Camera trapping is a standard tool in ecological research and wildlife conservation. Study designs, particularly for small-bodied or cryptic wildlife species often attempt to boost low detection probabilities by using non-random camera placement or baited cameras, which may bias data, or incorrectly estimate detection and occupancy. We investigated the ability of non-baited, multi-camera arrays...

A central goal in camera-trapping (CT) studies is to maximize detection probability and precision of occupancy estimates while minimizing the number CTs reduce equipment labor costs. Few studies, however, have examined effect CT on probability. Moreover, historically, most focused a specific species design could be tailored toward maximizing this target species. Increasingly, such use data for ...

modern integrated circuits consist of millions of standard cells and routing paths. in nano-scale designs, mis-prediction is a dominant problem that may diminish the quality of physical design algorithms or even result in the disruption of the convergence of the design cycle. in this paper, a new planning methodology is presented in which a master-plan of the chip is constructed at the early le...
