Live Feedback on a Live Video Using HTML5 Canvas

The objective of this research is to teleoperate a robot situated at a remote location with the help of video camera. The operator relies on the live video to move the bot and maneuver different tasks, but in the case of laggy video the operator has to wait until the video is received which is frustrating and tiresome. We intend to solve this by giving feedback to the operator instantly as the command is given. This is done by using HTML5 Canvas as a medium to show the video instead of using a video player. HTML5 Canvas gives us flexibility as it can be used to access pixel values from the video and manipulate them giving feedback to the operator on the video itself. Preliminary data shows 30% decrease in time for doing certain tasks using this system instead of without using the system.Computer Scienc

Browse-to-search

This demonstration presents a novel interactive online shopping application based on visual search technologies. When users want to buy something on a shopping site, they usually have the requirement of looking for related information from other web sites. Therefore users need to switch between the web page being browsed and other websites that provide search results. The proposed application enables users to naturally search products of interest when they browse a web page, and make their even causal purchase intent easily satisfied. The interactive shopping experience is characterized by: 1) in session - it allows users to specify the purchase intent in the browsing session, instead of leaving the current page and navigating to other websites; 2) in context - -the browsed web page provides implicit context information which helps infer user purchase preferences; 3) in focus - users easily specify their search interest using gesture on touch devices and do not need to formulate queries in search box; 4) natural-gesture inputs and visual-based search provides users a natural shopping experience. The system is evaluated against a data set consisting of several millions commercial product images. © 2012 Authors
