Self-Cleaning Bending Sensors Based on Semitransparent ZnO Nanostructured Films
2023
The design of multifunctional nanostructured materials is the key to the development of smart wearable devices. For instance, nanostructures endowed with both piezoelectric and photocatalytic activities could well be the workhorse for solar-light-driven self-cleaning wearable sensors. In this work, a simple strategy for the assembly of a flexible, semitransparent piezophotocatalytic system is demonstrated by leveraging rational wet chemistry synthesis of ZnO-based nanosheets/nanoflowers (NSs/NFs) under basic pH conditions onto flexible ITO/PET supports. A KMnO4 pretreatment before the ZnO synthesis (seeded ZnO) allows for the control of the density, size, and orientation of the NSs/NFs syst…
Toward a virtual reconstruction of an antique three-dimensional marble puzzle
2017
International audience; Abstract | Introduction | Related Work | Acquisition Setup, Proposed Prototype: Calibration and Visibility | Preprocessing of Scanned Three-Dimensional Fragment Data | Processing of Scanned Three-Dimensional Surface Data: Matching | Conclusion and Future Works | Appendices | Acknowledgments | ReferencesAbstract. The reconstruction of broken objects is an important field of research for many applications, such as art restoration, surgery, forensics, and solving puzzles. In archaeology, the reconstruction of broken artifacts is a very time-consuming task due to the handling of fractured objects, which are generally fragile. However, it can now be supported by three-dim…
Analysis of Low-Altitude Aerial Sequences for Road Traffic Diagnosis using Graph Partitioning and Markov Hierarchical Models
2016
International audience; This article focuses on an original approach aiming the processing of low-altitude aerial sequences taken from an helicopter (or drone) and presenting a road traffic. Proposed system attempts to extract vehicles from acquired sequences. Our approach begins with detecting the primitives of sequence images. At the time of this step of segmentation, the system computes dominant motion for each pair of images. This motion is computed using wavelets analysis on optical flow equation and robust techniques. Interesting areas (areas not affected by the dominant motion) are detected thanks to a Markov hierarchical model. Primitives stemming from segmentation and interesting a…
Bords d'une surface médiane : Identifications et applications
2014
National audience; Un squelette d'une forme fermée est une structure mince, centrée dans cette forme, décrivant sa topologie et sa géométrie. Les squelettes permettent de développer des applications interactives en synthèse d'images~: l'utilisateur peut manipuler intuitivement des formes en modifiant leurs squelettes. Parmi toutes les formulations de squelettes, nous nous intéressons en particulier à la surface médiane. Ses éléments, nommés atomes, sont les sphères maximales intérieures à la forme décrite. Les positions des atomes sont organisées en courbes et surfaces, qui composent la structure squelettale. Cette structure peut être d'une grande aide pour manipuler une forme. Cependant, e…
WSN localization scheme based on Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) for ZigBee Networks
2015
International audience; Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have diverse application domains such as smart home, smart care, industrial, etc. We present a WSN system based on the ZigBee technology (IEEE 802.15.4) in Smart Home. In our paper we interest to ZigBee protocol is often used in medical Rehabilitation, which is a relatively new concept involving wireless transmission of data from the sensors attached to a patient to a distant monitoring station. There is no standardized topology managing the current networks, therefore, we will compare and evaluate the performance the mobility of nodes for star topologies in different scenarios to determine which is the most suitable in a typical hospi…
Human interaction recognition based on the co-occurence of visual words
2014
International audience; This paper describes a novel methodology for automated recognition of high-level activities. A key aspect of our framework relies on the concept of co-occurring visual words for describing interactions between several persons. Motivated by the numerous success of human activity recognition methods using bag-of-words, this paradigm is extended. A 3-D XYT spatio-temporal volume is generated for each interacting person and a set of visual words is extracted to represent his activity. The interaction is then represented by the frequency of co-occurring visual words between persons. For our experiments, we used the UT-interaction dataset which contains several complex hum…
