With the rapid emergence of 3D applications and virtual environments in computer systems; the need for a new type of interaction device arises. This is because the traditional devices such as mouse, keyboard, and joystick become inefficient and cumbersome within these virtual environments. In other words, evolution of user interfaces shapes the change in the Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). In...

in this study, the experimental analysis on the bare hull resistance coefficient of submarine at snorkel depth is represented. the experiments are conducted in marine laboratory of admiral makarov university. the results are presented for surface condition and snorkel condition. snorkel depth is regarded equal to one diameter of submarine hull beneath the water surface as usual in submarines. p...

objectives: the blind and visually disabled people form a predominant group in the disabled society and hence, need greater attention. most of the rehabilitation therapists, especially occupational therapists, do not focus on this group. thus, the aim of the study is to shed light on the issue of negligent attitude of rehabilitation therapists, especially occupational therapists, toward blind a...

introduction: the decline of visual function with increasing age is a significant concern in elderly. despite previous work on prevalence of specific ophthalmic pathologies, there has not been enough valid data about overall eye disorders in tehran yet, and it is poorly defined and not underpinned by strong evidence. the purpose of this study was to investigate the common eye disorders in the e...

variations in lighting are a problem for visual systems. in the current research, a new thresholding method using a 3d euclidian elliptical surface was defined and applied for plant detection purposes. the results showed that this method had lower type i error, type ii error, total error and mean square error compared with those of conventional segmentation methods. the method was evaluated for...

sorting and classification of agricultural products by machine vision system reduce costs and increase quality and accuracy. this research was performed to develop an algorithm and machine vision system for separating dirty and defects eggs and classifying by volume and weight. this machine installed on transport line egg in agriculture included a digital camera, computer and mechanical device ...

purpose: to determine the prevalence and causes of blindness and low vision in yazd provice in 2008. methods: a population-based cross-sectional study was performed on inhabitants of in yazd province in 2008. using multistage cluster sampling, sample size was calculated based on the distribution of the total population of yazd province derived from national census and estimated rates of blindne...
