Systems for determining the position of objects inside buildings have a wide range applications, such as surveillance people’s movements in hospitals, and goods or mobile robots warehouse spaces production halls. Hence, there is need development methods that could be applied those purposes. This paper presents results research on an experimental system localizing people being evacuated from bui...

Nowcasting of lightning occurrences is essential in tropical locations as lightening causes severe damage to life and property. This study attempts nowcast events during convective phenomena using an electric field monitor (EFM) at a urban location, Kolkata (22.65°N, 88.45°E). Before the onset heavy occurrences, definite changes atmospheric (EF) are observed, which turn associated with high clo...

The effect of the location of particles within the plasma volume on the LIBS signal for single-particle measurements is investigated. Three methods of collecting plasma emission are compared to determine the influence of plasma imaging on particle hit detection rates and signal precision. Imaging larger regions of the plasma volume improves particle detection rates. Spatial integration of the s...
