The proposed work presents efficient objection detection and tracking algorithm for autonomous vehicles, which is developed in MATLAB with Image Processing Computer Version Toolbox and Automated Driving Toolbox. The developed algorithm track and detects moving and stationary objects such as other vehicles, pedestrians, and traffic lanes. Accurate and efficient tracking are important to analyze object behavior. For this work various build in detectors from MATLAB tool box were tested and compared. The evaluation of algorithm was carried on for 19 short videos from 8 seconds to 23 seconds, and then it applied to K-dataset and full road experiments by the Automated Driving Lab. The full road tests are between one to five minutes, including CAR to CAR WEST, CAR WEST to CAR, and campus marked roads.
Medikit - An IoT healthcare system is developed for patients, hospitals and care centers that regularly supervise the health condition and checks whether the patient has taken the prescribed medicine. The proposed work monitors patient’s vitals such as pulse rate and body temperature on real time basis. Such information will be used by the doctor to diagnose the patient remotely and prescribe optimum medication dose. Further, the Medikit system apart from collecting the data ensures that patient has taken the medicine on time. For the proposed system the authors have used Bluetooth Technology to send sensor data to a Smartphone and also to Cloud Service Platform for archiving and analysis. The information available on the Cloud can be supervised by the doctor by using a Mobile application. The mobile application also supports scheduling of medicines as per doctor’s prescription in the medical box. The comprehensive system developed, to the best of author’s knowledge, is low cost, efficient and service oriented as compared to the traditional healthcare practices and other eHealth solutions discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
