Sensory professionals are limited in conducting sensory evaluation at indoor facilities during the current COVID-19 pandemic period. However, they eager to find alternative methods for safely continuing because it is a critical operation component both food and non-food industries. As an booths, this study proposes drive-in booths where panelists evaluate test samples their own vehicles. This a...

This paper presents a method of converting a 2D still photo containing the head & shoulders of a human (e.g. a passport photo) to pseudo-3D, so that the depth can be perceived via stereopsis. This technology has the potential to be included in self-serve photo booths and, also as an added accessory (i.e. software package) for digital still cameras and scanners. The basis of the algorithm is to ...

The collection of vehicular tolls at Port Authority tunnels and bridges is one of the most important operations conducted by the police personnel. More than 250 traffic officers are utilized, and the payroll costs exceed a million dollars annually. In staffing its toll plazas the Port Authority attempts to handle traffic with a minimum number of toll collectors consistent with uniformly good se...

An arithmetic logic unit acts as the basic building blocks or cell of a central processing unit of a computer. And it is a digital circuit comprised of the basic electronics components, which is used to perform various function of arithmetic and logic and integral operations further the purpose of this work is to propose the design of an 8-bit ALU which supports 4-bit multiplication. Thus, the ...

Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic left an unprecedented impact on the general public health, resulting in hundreds of thousands deaths US alone. Nationwide testing plans were initiated, with drive-through being currently dominant approach, which, however, exhausts personal protective equipment supplies, and is unfriendly to individuals not owning a vehicle. Walk-up positive pressure booths are saf...

This paper introducing a novel technique called as redundant binary booth algorithm. The redundant binary in the design of high-speed digital multipliers is beneficial due to its high modularity and carry-free addition. Generally, in a high radix modified Booth encoding algorithm the partial products are reduced in multiplication process. But it yields complexity in producing in generation of h...
