Abstract: Image processing is a method to perform some operations on an image, in order to get an enhanced image or to extract some useful information from it. It is a type of signal processing in which input is an image and output may be image or characteristics/features associated with that image. Nowadays, image processing is one among rapidly growing technologies. It forms core research area within engineering and computer science disciplines too. Image detection on road is primarily carried out with the help of camera with Raspberry pi 3 model b+ and stimulation software. The device is built in such a way that we can identify any potholes in the respective roads and able to rectify as soon as possible with the help of the device. The data signals shared by the device will be converted to text signals from which we can get it right. These devices are fixed at top of the lamppost which is located at the corners of the road from where the device is monitoring the road at 120 degree for weekly once respectively. Keywords: Image processing, Image detection on road, Raspberry pi 3, 120 degree

In this work we proposed the development of an alternative device as a motivating element to learn computer science and robotics using the Raspberry PI and Arduino boards. The connections of all hardware used to build the device called Betabot are presented and are also reported the technologies used for programming the Betabot. An environment for writing programs to run at Betabot was developed. With this environment it is possible to write programs in the Python programming language, using libraries with functions specific to the device. With the Betabot using a webcam and through image processing search for patterns like faces, circles, squares and colors. The device also has functions to move servos and motors, and capture values returned by some kindsof sensors connected to communication ports. From this work, it was possible to develop a device that is easy to be manipulated and programmed, which can be used to support the teaching of computer science and robotics.


Due to the increasing accidents in the road, we are proposing a system to reduce it. Mainly the occurrence of accidents is due to the vehicle speed, so by figuring the over speed vehicle actions can be easily taken. Using this system the speed of moving vehicles can be determined with raspberry pi .The system is designed to detect the moving vehicles and calculate its velocity. The system used Open CV as image processing software and Simple Mail Transfer Protocol(SMTP) to perceive and follow the moving vehicles. Several types of capturing size of the video are used in this system to check and measure the performance of the embedded board

Road quality information detect system is an important component in architecture quality detect system, also is the basement of successfully working of other related project for the whole country. The study of detecting the road crack is the key to insure the security of accurately detect the road quality in transportation system. In this paper, we come up with a fixed way of road undersized rift image detection by using cellular neural networks. By image processing, building rift networks and details networks and adding the model of similarity undersized rift networks. It can avoid the problem that can not accurately detect undersized crack by only taking the crack feature value. The experiment proved that fixed crack detect computing is easy to do, more accurate to detect the undersized cracks on the road and can reach the standard level of current detect technique.

Graph signal processing (GSP) is an emerging field in the signal processing community. Novel GSP-based transforms, such as graph Fourier transform and graph wavelet filter banks, have been successfully utilized in image processing and pattern recognition. As a rapidly developing research area, graph signal processing aims to extend classical signal processing techniques to signals with irregular underlying structures. One of the hot topics in GSP is to develop multi-scale transforms such that novel GSP-based techniques can be applied in image processing or other related areas. For designing graph signal multi-scale frameworks, downsampling operations that ensuring multi-level downsampling should be specifically constructed. Among the existing downsampling methods in graph signal processing, the state-of-the-art method was constructed based on the maximum spanning tree (MST). However, when using this method for multi-level downsampling of graph signals defined on unweighted densely connected graphs, such as social network data, the sampling rates are not close to [Formula: see text]. This phenomenon is summarized as a new problem and called downsampling unbalance problem in this paper. Due to the unbalance, MST-based downsampling method cannot be applied to construct graph signal multi-scale transforms. In this paper, we propose a novel and efficient method to detect and reduce the downsampling unbalance generated by the MST-based method. For any given graph signal, we apply the graph density to construct a measurement of the downsampling unbalance generated by the MST-based method. If a graph signal has large unbalance possibility, the multi-level downsampling is conducted after the MST is improved. The experimental results on synthetic and real-world social network data show that downsampling unbalance can be efficiently detected and then reduced by our method.

The development of the internet of things (IoT) and the internet of robotics (IoR) are becoming more and more involved with our daily lives. It serves a variety of tasks some of them are essential to us. The main objective of SRR is to develop a surveillance system for detecting suspicious and targeted places for users without any loss of human life. This paper shows the design and implementation of a robotic surveillance platform for real-time monitoring with the help of image processing, which can explorer places of difficult access or high risk. The robotic live streaming is via two cameras, the first one is fixed straight on the road and the second one is dynamic with tilt-pan ability. All cameras have image processing capabilities to analyze, detect and track objects plus few other graphical functions. The components mentioned above built on top of the four-wheel vehicle system with high torque to provide mobility on rough terrain. This work is based on Raspberry Pi and can be controlled over Wi-Fi locally or publicly over the internet. The results show making a high potential, relatively low price robot with lots of features and functions that can perform multiple tasks simultaneously, all are crucial to surveillance and monitoring problems, controlled by a user from far distances and for a long time.

According to UNESCO, cultural heritage does not only include monuments and collections of objects, but also contains traditions or living expressions inherited from our ancestors and passed to our descendants. Folk dances represent part of cultural heritage and their preservation for the next generations appears of major importance. Digitization and visualization of folk dances form an increasingly active research area in computer science. In parallel to the rapidly advancing technologies, new ways for learning folk dances are explored, making the digitization and visualization of assorted folk dances for learning purposes using different equipment possible. Along with challenges and limitations, solutions that can assist the learning process and provide the user with meaningful feedback are proposed. In this paper, an overview of the techniques used for the recording of dance moves is presented. The different ways of visualization and giving the feedback to the user are reviewed as well as ways of performance evaluation. This paper reviews advances in digitization and visualization of folk dances from 2000 to 2018.
