Heat flows through the mould in casting govern the cooling rate of the liquid which affects the structure and properties of the materials. By controlling the heat flow direction, it is possible to control the structures as well as properties of the materials. To predict the heat-flow through the sand mould, finite element (FE) model was developed u

is slowly degrading the limitation and common understanding of privacy and trust through digital life, which has open world concept. It has become normal procedure when the user must submit their personal details for digital service such as social networking, electronic commerce, personal hosting, etc. Meanwhile, to be able to revealing their priva

In this paper, visual tracking and servoing of human face are implemented through image processing. A robotic humanoid head named Amir-II, equipped with web cam and servoing mechanism is used as the platform. The robotic head tracks the human face within the field-of-vision (FOV) while the servoing mechanism ensures the detected human face remains

That academic plagiarism is on the rise is an alarming world-wide phenomenon. Plagiarism could be present in undergraduate students’ academic writing in the form of extended pieces of perfect but blatantly copied work. It could also be found in deceptively inconspicuous smaller portions of unattributed prose. Factors causing students plagiarising

This paper presents the development of graphical user interface (GUI) for Humanoid Head Robot Amir-II. The GUI serves as a monitoring tool for the robot operation which includes the visual input from a webcam as its eye and the positioning of the Dynamixel AX-12 robot actuators. Matlab Graphical User Interface Development Environment (Matlab GUIDE)

Recent research in video surveillance system has shown an increasing focus on creating reliable systems utilizing non-computationally expensive technique for observing humans’ appearance, movements and activities, thus providing analytical information for advanced human behavior analysis and realistic human modeling. In order for the system to fu
