In Vuforia SDK, image recognition is done using a grayscale technique to search for angular features of the pixel image. If the image was taken directly using the camera in the old times in the form of Black and White (BNW), it has bad quality and most likely cannot be used as a marker because it has a few features.

High intensive research on 60 GHz antenna for high data rate indoor communication is becoming a trending topic. The high propagation loss at this band is the most challenging. The antenna needs to have higher gain to overcome the loss. Such antenna designs have been proposed recently. This paper, a new MIMO 2x4 patch rectangular antenna operating at 60 GHz is designed for Wi-Gig application. The rectangular patch antenna has 1.75 mm x 1.54 mm of size, printed on Rogers Duroid RT 5880 substrate, the dielectric constant of 2.20 and loss tangent of 0,0009. The antenna was designed and simulated using CST simulation software. The simulated return loss showed a very consistent characteristic. The return loss reached −30 dB at 60 GHz. The broad bandwidth obtained is 4.3 GHz concerning -10 dB. The omnidirectional radiation pattern with 13.4 dBi of gain is obtained. This antenna meets the Wi-Gig requirement.","PeriodicalId":303470,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Electrical, Energy and Power System Engineering","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132312917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
