Replacing failed bulbs of streetlights in a location can be very tasking and expensive if the optimal time for replacement is not determined. In this paper, model has been developed that helps to establish streetlight bulbs. Burnt-out are replaced individually when they fail, group carried out on all after specified time. The costs both individual was applied locally sourced data from field sur...

Face detection is an important preprocessing stage for automated facial recognition systems. Imaging in real world environment experience substantial variation in lighting and weather conditions. Surveillance systems are a typical example of real world imaging systems. Face detection is based upon typical haar like patterns appearing in facial images. Performance of even most successful face de...

Technological advances in lighting lead towards the development of intelligent LED systems and require reconsidering the way we interact with lighting systems. In this paper, we report on the workshop ‘User Interaction Techniques for Future Lighting System’ that was held in conjunction with INTERACT 2011 in Lisbon, Portugal. It was organized to initiate a dialogue between HCI researchers in the...

This paper presents an extensive analysis of the operating principles, theoretical background, advantages and limitations of laser-based lighting systems. In the first part of the paper we discuss the main advantages and issues of laser-based lighting, and present a comparison with conventional LED-lighting technology. In the second part of the paper, we present original experimental data on th...

Dancers express their feelings and moods through gestures and body movements. We seek to extend this mode of expression by dynamically and automatically adjusting music and lighting in the dance environment to reflect the dancer’s arousal state. Our intention is to offer a space that performance artists can use as a creative tool that extends the grammar of dance. To enable the dynamic manipula...
