Time and timing issues within the wireless application home environment
(IEEE, 2008-03-03)
Hardware implementation of a real-time 3D video acquisition system
(IEEE, 2010-07-15)
An implementation of a real-time 3D video acquisition system on a single FPGA is presented. Our approach is based on the use of stereo image sensors and can display real-time 3D video when combined with shutter glasses. ...
A secure and efficient micropayment solution for online gaming
(IEEE, 2009-10-23)
An innovative micropayment solution is proposed which incorporates both distributed security and social networking features. This has significant potential to impact on both the provision of new services and community ...
Appearance capturing and animation techniques for realistic, true-identity gaming avatars
(IEEE, 2009-10-23)
Making use of a class of 2D statistical face models known as active appearance models (AAMs), we investigate a technique for generating real-time animated avatars suitable for video gaming. We consider here a number of ...
Enhanced real-time face models from stereo imaging for gaming applications
(IEEE, 2009-10-23)
Techniques for improved 2D active appearance face models are presented. When these are applied to stereoscopic image pairs we show that sufficient information on image depth is obtained to generate an approximate 3D face ...
Comparison of radar-based microwave imaging algorithms applied to experimental breast phantoms
(Union Radio-Scientifique Internationale, 2017-08-19)
Microwave imaging is a promising imaging modality for
the early detection of breast cancer. The two most important
signal processing components of a radar-based microwave
imaging system are the early-time artifact removal ...
An end-user led approach for assessing the feasibility of small-scale wind energy projects
(NUI Galway, 2017-06-18)
The successful realization of a wind energy project,
i.e. a wind farm, wind plant or, in its simplest form, a single
wind turbine generator, WTG, strongly depends on accurate
assessment of wind energy resources at the ...
A crash course on patents for engineers
(IEEE, 2013-01-12)
Most engineers are aware of the existence of patents. Indeed the preparation of patent disclosures is an important aspect of most research engineering job functions. Yet for many engineers the world of patents remains ...
An analytical method to assess the impact of distributed generation and energy storage on reliability of supply
(CIRED International Conference and Exhibition on Electricity Distribution, 2017-06-12)
Efficient integration of Distributed Generation (DG) and
Energy Storage Systems (ESS) to distribution networks
can help improve the reliability of supply. In order to
evaluate the impact of these technologies on ...
Electrical impedance tomography with exploitation of symmetry
(Bioengineering in Ireland 2018, 2018-01-26)
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is an imaging technique involving an electrode array positioned around the area of interest. Alternating current is injected, and voltage measured, between electrode pairs in a prescribed ...
