Artificial Intelligence, from your phone to the chess board to your car, is becoming more and more advanced, seemingly only bounded by our imagination. It seems as though we, as a society, should no longer be asking “Can I?” and instead should be asking “Should I?” Modern times are plagued with issues caused by human error such as mistakes, accidents, and misjudgment. If you could eliminate these errors, saving millions of lives a year, at the cost of a marginal amount of your freedom, would…

2.10.1 Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) Fuzzy set theory explain this technique to enhance an image of handwritten scripts and for an edge detection of wrist X-ray images. In the case of the contrast enhancement process of an image, the Fuzzy set also seen as a collection of membership functions, where each represents how much degree of corresponding grayscale pixels is possible to be “bright”. In other words, a Fuzzy membership value of the image Fuzzy set can be understood as the degree of…

in HCI A driverless car is also known as self-driving, autonomous car which is a robotic vehicle manufactured so that it can sense and navigate within the environment without human input. It uses different techniques such as GPS, radar or computer vision to detect the surroundings. Big companies such as Google, Audi and BMW are already testing the driverless cars to see if it is worth making it. In California, while testing the driverless cars, it navigated 140,000 miles. However, only a single…

Driverless cars - they feel their surroundings with such techniques as radar, lidar, GPS, odometry, & computer vision. They update their maps based on sensory input, allowing the vehicles to keep track of their position, even in changing conditions, or in a uncharted environment. These machines have control systems that are capable of analyzing sensory data to distinguish between different cars on the road. Now, some people do not exactly support these vehicles. ‘Oh, they’ll destroy the…

17th century. All it needed to work was light, such as a candle, and crude lenses. It was used for entertainment and often times, education, for all ages. It remained very popular until motion toys came about and soon the concept of “persistence of vision” came forth, in which it is “the eye's capacity to retain an image even after it has been removed”. Peter Mark Roget in 1824 came up with that description and idea and helped advance in cinema. In 1831, Michael Faraday discovered the law of…
