A new optical encoder system is presented for displacement measurement by the curve fitting method. In this paper, another pondering model is based on the previous development. That is the new measurement method using a homemade periodical gray level code, which can be used to replace the traditional doublet grating. A high precision is achieved by a fitting method with one single-frequency harmonic function. The experiment result shows that the concept is feasible.

Using A Segmented Voltage Sweep Mode and A Gaussian Curve Fitting Method to Improve Heavy Metal Measurement System PerformanceThis paper presents a voltammetric segmented voltage sweep mode that can be used to identify and measure heavy metals' concentrations. The proposed sweep mode covers a set of voltage ranges that are centered around the redox potentials of the metals that are under analysis. The heavy metal measurement system can take advantage of the historical database of measurements to identify the metals with higher concentrations in a given geographical area, and perform a segmented sweep around predefined voltage ranges or, alternatively, the system can perform a fast linear voltage sweep to identify the voltammetric current peaks and then perform a segmented voltage sweep around the set of voltages that are associated with the voltammetric current peaks. The paper also includes the presentation of two auto-calibration modes that can be used to improve system's reliability and proposes the usage of a Gaussian curve fitting of voltammetric data to identify heavy metals and to evaluate their concentrations. Several simulation and experimental results, that validate the theoretical expectations, are also presented in the paper.

The use of hand gestures opens a wide range of application for human computer interaction. The paper makes use of haar classifiers and camShift algorithm to track the movement of hand. Parallelism is introduced at every step by segmenting the data from camshaft into an NxN grid. Every block of the grid now represents a lead point which is calculated from mean of all the points belonging to the particular grid. Now we have only N2 points to recognize the curve that was performed by the user in his action. Finally the fit that was found is compared to pre-defined curve fit data to find out the curve using Mahalanobis equation. Parallelism used in reducing the number of points to be fitted allows the recognition to be faster.
