Dynamic control of high-voltage actuator arrays by light-pattern projection on photoconductive switches

Herbert Shea, Amir Firouzeh, Edouard Franck Vincent Gustave Leroy

The ability to control high-voltage actuator arrays relies, to date, on expensive microelectronic processes or on individual wiring of each actuator to a single off-chip high-voltage switch. Here we present an alternative approach that uses on-chip photoco ...

Polarization-Controlled Chromo-Encryption

Olivier Martin, Hsiang-Chu Wang

The response of simple plasmonic nanorods to polarized illumination is studied in detail. Depending on the orientation of that polarization with respect to the symmetry axes of the nanostructure, a chiral response can occur, which can be analyzed through a ...

Indoor Light Enhanced Photocatalytic Ultra-Thin Films on Flexible Non-Heat Resistant Substrates Reducing Bacterial Infection Risks

Sami Rtimi

Photocatalytic antibacterial sol-gel coated substrates have been reported to kill bacteria under light or in the dark. These coatings showed non-uniform distribution, poor adhesion to the substrate and short effective lifetime as antibacterial surfaces. Th ...

Glare Caused By Contrast Between Task And Immediate Surround: An Evaluation Of Luminance Distribution In The Field Of View

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Peter Hansen, Mandana Sarey Khanie

Luminance ratios have historically been used to assess glare. Using data from a previous experiment, this exploratory study investigates the relationship between luminance variations in the field of view (FOV), measured as luminance ratios, and glare sensa ...

Demultiplexing Visible and Near-Infrared Information in Single- Sensor Multispectral Imaging

Sabine Süsstrunk, Zahra Sadeghipoor Kermani

In this paper, we study a single-sensor imaging system that uses a multispectral filter array to spectrally sample the scene. Our system captures information in both visible and near-infrared bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. Due to manufacturing limi ...

Near-Infrared Guided Color Image Dehazing

Sabine Süsstrunk, Chen Feng

Near-infrared (NIR) light has stronger penetration capability than visible light due to its long wavelength, thus being less scattered by particles in the air. This makes it desirable for image dehazing to unveil details of distant objects in landscape pho ...

The Impact of Light Including Non-Image Forming Effects on Visual Comfort

Apiparn Borisuit

Visual comfort at workplaces has often been considered in terms of discomfort glare, luminance distribution and task visibility. Besides visual effects, the lighting environment has also impact on human physiology and behaviour. These effects of light are ...

Constrained Acquisition of Ink Spreading Curves From Printed Color Images

Roger Hersch, Thomas Bugnon

Today's spectral reflection prediction models are able to predict the reflection spectra of printed color images with an accuracy as high as the reproduction variability allows. However, to calibrate such models, special uniform calibration patches need to ...

Endoscopic Fluorescence Imaging : Spectral Optimization and in vivo Characterization of Positive Sites by Magnifying Vascular Imaging

Blaise Lovisa

Since several decades, the physicians are able to access hollow organs with endoscopic methods, which serve both as diagnostic and surgical means in a wide range of disciplines of the modern medicine (e.g. urology, pneumology, gastroenterology). Unfortunat ...

Exploiting redundancy in color images

The colors in a digital image do not only depend on the scene's reflectances, but also on the lighting conditions and on the characteristics of the imaging device. It is often necessary to separate the influence of these three elements, in particular to se ...

Yule-Nielsen approach for predicting the spectral transmittance of halftone prints

Roger Hersch, Mathieu Hébert

The transmittance spectrum of halftone prints on paper is predicted thanks to a model inspired by the Yule-Nielsen modified spectral Neugebauer model used for reflectance predictions. This model is well adapted for semi-opaque printing supports and applica ...

A Master-Slave Approach for Object Detection and Matching with Fixed and Mobile Cameras

Michel Bierlaire, Murat Kunt, Alexandre Massoud Alahi

Typical object detection algorithms on mobile cameras suffer from the lack of a-priori knowledge on the object to be detected. The variability in the shape, pose, color distribution, and behavior affect the robustness of the detection process. In general, ...
