A classic task in robotics is tracking a target in the external environment. There are several well-documented approaches to this problem. This paper presents a novel approach to this problem using infrared time of flight sensors. The use…
To be able to measure relevant data for transport infrastructure monitoring and to obtain maintenance indicators in a crowd sensing-based fashion, a set of requirements (both from hardware and software points of view) needs to be satisfied.…
This paper presents a novel beacon light coding protocol, which enables fast and accurate identification of the beacons in an image. The protocol is provably robust to a predefined set of detection and decoding errors, and does not require…
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) underpin the concept of Mobility as a Service (MaaS), which requires universal and seamless users' access across multiple public and private transportation systems while allowing operators'…
Target tracking is an important issue of social security. In order to track a target, traditionally a large amount of surveillance video data need to be uploaded into the cloud for processing and analysis, which put stremendous bandwidth…
WiFi fingerprinting is one of the mainstream technologies for indoor localization. However, it requires an initial calibration phase during which the fingerprint database is built manually. This process is labour intensive and needs to be…
Vehicle tracking, a core application to smart city video analytics, is becoming more widely deployed than ever before thanks to the increasing number of traffic cameras and recent advances of computer vision and machine learning. Due to the…
Wireless communication is essential to achieve coordinated control in vehicle platoons. However, packet losses in wireless communication can cause critical safety issues when they occur in conjunction with sudden brakes. In this paper, we…
Reliable deployment of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in cluttered unknown environments requires accurate sensors for Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)-denied localization and obstacle avoidance. Such a requirement limits the usage…
A traffic monitoring system (TMS) is an integral part of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). It is an essential tool for traffic analysis and planning. One of the biggest challenges is, however, the high cost especially in covering…
The increasing ubiquity of low-cost wireless sensors has enabled users to easily deploy systems to remotely monitor and control their environments. However, this raises privacy concerns for third-party occupants, such as a hotel room guest…
This paper demonstrates a system comprised of infrared beacons and a camera equipped with an optical band-pass filter. Our system can reliably detect and identify individual beacons at 100m distance regardless of lighting conditions. We…
Ensuring safe and efficient mobility is a critical issue for smart city operators. Increasing safety not only reduces the likelihood of road injuries and fatalities, but also reduces traffic congestion and disruptions caused by accidents,…
A significant portion of driving hazards is caused by human error and disregard for local driving regulations; Consequently, an intelligent assistance system can be beneficial. This paper proposes a novel vision-based modular package to…
The Bluetooth protocol can be used for intervehicle communication equipped with Bluetooth devices. This work investigates the challenges and feasibility of developing intelligent driving system providing timesensitive information about…
Vehicle tracking is an integral part of intelligent traffic management systems. Previous implementations of vehicle tracking used Global Positioning System(GPS) based systems that gave location of the vehicle of an individual on their…
A vehicular ad-hoc network is a type of communication network where the nodes are vehicles. Their aim is to manage traffic efficiently in order to prevent unwanted events such as accidents, jams, etc. The research on this type of networks…
Increasingly, connected cars are becoming a decentralized data platform. With greater autonomy, they have growing needs for computation and perceiving the world around them through sensors. While todays generation of vehicles carry all the…
Sensor networks and robots are both quickly evolving fields, the union of two fields seems inherently symbiotic. Collecting data from stationary sensors can be time consuming task and thus can be automated by adding wireless communication…
Mobile smartphones compactly provide sensors such as cameras, IMUs, GNSS measurement units, and wireless and wired communication channels required for robotics projects. They are affordable, portable, and programmable, which makes them…
