Active lighting applied to three-dimensional reconstruction of specular metallic surfaces by polarization imaging

2006

International audience; In the field of industrial vision, the three-dimensional inspection of highly reflective metallic objects is still a delicate task. We deal with a new automated three-dimensional inspection system based on polarization analysis. We first present an extension of the shape-from-polarization method for dielectric surfaces to metallic surfaces. Then, we describe what we believe to be a new way of solving the ambiguity concerning the normal orientation with an active lighting system. Finally, applications to shape-defect detection are discussed, and the efficiency of the system to discriminate defects on specular metallic objects made by stamping and polishing is presente…

Agenda and media pluralism in Al Rojo Vivo and Las Mañanas de Cuatro

2019

En: Doxa Comunicación: revista interdisciplinar de estudios de comunicación y ciencias sociales. e-ISSN 2386-3978 n. 29, 2019, pp 113-137. Aun con el auge del entorno digital e híbrido, la televisión continúa siendo el principal medio de información en España. Se toma una muestra de 50 programas (25 de “Al Rojo Vivo” y 25 de “Las Mañanas de Cuatro”) para registrar quién participa en ellos, en qué condiciones lo hacen y sobre qué temas se discute. Se aprecia un alto grado de equivalencia en la agenda establecida y una bajísima inclusión de mujeres. El Procés catalán monopolizó la atención. La metodología incluye la cuantificación de los contraargumentos recibidos por los contertulios, mostra…

Eduard Bernsteinin demokraattinen rauhanpolitiikka

2012

Tutkielmassa tarkastellaan saksalaisen työnväenliikkeen intellektuellin, journalistin ja poliitikon Eduard Bernsteinin rauhanpolitiikkaa. Tutkimuksessa kysytään, mistä näkökulmasta Bernstein lähti käsittelemään rauhankysymystä teksteissään ja valtiopäivätoiminnassaan. Mitkä olivat demokraattisen rauhanpolitiikan keskeiset piirteet? Toiseksi tutkielmassa kysytään Quentin Skinnerin inspiroimana, että mitä konventioita ja uskomuksia Bernstein lähti teksteillään haastamaan. Tutkielman otsikon käsiterauhanpolitiikka on omaksuttu historiallisen rauhantutkimuksen piiristä, mutta Bernstein puhui myös omissa teksteissään rauhanpolitiikasta. Tutkielman aineisto koostuu pääosin Bernsteinin ensimmäisen…

Media in enhancing physical activities : the case study "Dynamic Duo"

2012

This Master’s Thesis deals with the potentials of media in enhancing physical activities in the Western postmodern society in the light of a case study Dynamic Duo. Dynamic Duo was a media related campaign in the Finnish national broadcasting company YLE that was targeted in enhancing people’s physical activity. The aim of the thesis is to study in which ways the Dynamic Duo campaign possesses capacity in activating people and, what are the reasons of the participants to take part in the Dynamic Duo campaign. In addition, this thesis investigates what reasons there are in organising campaigns that utilise media in order to increase physical activity. The research data was collected from the…

An Innovative Coupling Solution for Power Line Communication in MV Electrical Networks

2019

One of the main problems in the diffusion of power line communication (PLC) in medium voltage (MV) networks is the need of a dedicated PLC coupler to be installed all over the network. To avoid this problem, the authors have studied, prototyped and patented an innovative PLC coupling solution which uses electrical elements embedded in most of the switchgears already installed in MV networks, i.e. the capacitive dividers of the voltage detecting systems (VDS). The new solution prototype is described in this paper, highlighting the advantages in terms of a significant reduction of both direct costs of equipment and infrastructures and indirect costs of installation and service interruption. T…

THE ADMINISTRATIVE JUSTICE IN SPAIN: CURRENT SITUATION AND CHALLENGES

2016

Since the Spanish Constitution of 1978 there has been a full and effective administrative justice. The citizens have the possibility to request a judicial review of decisions taken by the public Administrations, while being either the owners of a subjective right or of a legitimate interest. The interim judicial protection is not limited to the suppression of the act or general provision and the Courts are invested with direct powers to enforce their sentences. However, different problematic issues about the inactivity of the public Administrations and the enforcement of sentences are the new challenges to ensure the administrative justice. To this it must be added that there are problems r…

Combining hyperspectral UAV and multispectral Formosat-2 imagery for precision agriculture applications

2014

Remote sensing is a key tool for precision agriculture applications as it is capable of capturing spatial and temporal variations in crop status. However, satellites often have an inadequate spatial resolution for precision agriculture applications. High-resolution Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) imagery can be obtained at flexible dates, but operational costs may limit the collection frequency. The current study utilizes data fusion to create a dataset which benefits from the temporal resolution of Formosat-2 imagery and the spatial resolution of UAV imagery with the purpose of monitoring crop growth in a potato field. The correlation of the Weighted Difference Vegetation Index (WDVI) from …
