    Surveillance cameras have been widely installed in large cities to monitor and record human activities for different applications. Since surveillance cameras often record all events 24 hours/day, it necessarily takes huge workforce watching surveillance videos to search for specific targets, thus a system that helps the user quickly look for targets of interest is highly demanded. This paper proposes a smart surveillance video browsing system with colour image enhancement. The basic idea is to collect all of moving objects which carry the most significant information in surveillance videos to construct a corresponding compact video by tuning positions of these moving objects. The compact video rearranges the spatiotemporal coordinates of moving objects to enhance the compression, but the temporal relationships among moving objects are still kept. The compact video can preserve the essential activities involved in the original surveillance video. This paper presents the details of browsing system and the approach to producing the compact video from a source surveillance video. At the end we will get the compact video with high resolution.

    Lean manufacturing is a proper method for waste reduction within a manufacturing system without giving up productivity. Lean also considers waste created through overburden and waste created through varying in workloads. Working from the point of view of the client who consumes a product or service, "value" is any action or process that a customer would be willing to pay for. Lean manufacturing makes clear what adds value, by reducing everything else. This management philosophy is derived mostly from the Toyota Production Systemand identified as "lean" only in the 1990s.[1],for numerous, lean is the set of "tools" that helps in the recognition and steady elimination of waste. As waste is reduced quality improves while production time and cost are reduced. An incomplete list of such tools would include Kaizen, Just in time, Five S, Kanban, poka-yoke, totalproductive maintenance, SMED, value stream mapping. In this paper, an effort has been made to build up a lean tools survey for the associations to execute the lean manufacturing system. Examinations of the investigative literature survey are summarized in this paper to illustrate the execution sequence of lean tools and techniques.

    Robotics is developed very rapidly in the last two decades. Robotics has found wide range of applications in today’s world. The development of technology has opened the new doors for the replacement of human by the machines. The robotics development is not only limited to the military applications but it has found several applications in domestic purposes also. The research was started with the basic robot model in 1961 from the metal pieces connected together; today it results in the replacement of the human by robot. The robots have optimized many industrial applications and have provided the better efficiency by reducing the errors and the time requirements. In this manuscript, authors have presented the overview of the research carried out on the robot systems utilised for the elderly and disabled human beings

    Intelligent Night Vision System for Automobile Based on Computer Vision

    In today’s world where we are witnessing second generation of automotive night vision systems uses near cameras in combination with pedestrian detection systems. This system is intended towards the increasing drivers’ visibility in the night by focusing attention of driver by showing all pedestrian on a display provided in the car. This helps in analyzing the imminent situation by providing and more and accurate information of all objects or persons in the path. Thus, the next generation of night vision systems needs to integrate an additional warning component which signals to the driver only the relevant objects, that is, all objects on the road or near the road. Such systems needs to detect objects more reliably and sooner and has to provide information about the object’s position. Rain, fog and wet road way surfaces dramatically alter visibility of driver. It reduces the visibility of drivers’ water on pavement increases forward reflection while reducing backward reflection, resulting in glare to oncoming vehicles. Camera detects the oncoming vehicle and sensor automatically adjust headlight glare

    Experimental Study of Heat Transfer From Plate Fin Array in Mixed Convection Mode

    The work summarized in this paper presents an experimental study of heat transfer from plate fin in mixed convection mode enhancement by the use of plate fins is presented. After a brief review of the basic methods used to enhance the heat transfer by simultaneous increase of heat transfer surface area as well as the heat transfer coefficient, a simple experimental method to assess the heat transfer enhancement is presented. The method is demonstrated on plate fins as elements for the heat transfer enhancement, but it can in principle be applied also to other fin forms
