It often involves the immobilization of a vehicle via a wheel lock that is attached to the tyres of a car in order to make sure that it cannot be driven. However, not only is this practice burdensome to drivers, there are also serious ethical issues surrounding it that has even made it illegal in certain countries. Several of these ethical problems are mentioned, and an Islamic ethical perspective is provided on vehicle clamping as a justification for discarding the practice completely. It is acknowledged that an alternative system to regulate the parking area according to laws and preventing chaos is crucial for all public parking areas. There are numerous systems which would provide simple, effective, and efficient alternatives to clamping. In this paper we would review and describe two different system configurations to replace vehicle clamping. The first system configuration utilizes passive RFIDs, the second technique uses a camera system to extract the vehicle license plate number, as alternatives to vehicle clamping. A traffic simulation is conducted using Arena process simulator with data collected at the IIUM Gombak campus to evaluate the effects of deploying these systems on the traffic flow of vehicles inside such a campus.","PeriodicalId":376337,"journal":{"name":"2011 4th International Conference on Mechatronics (ICOM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130383276","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}

Compressive sensing is a new paradigm of acquiring signals, fundamentally different from uniform rate digitization followed by compression, often used for transmission or storage. In this paper, a novel algorithm for speech coding utilizing CS principle is developed. The sparsity of speech signals is exploited using gammatone filterbank and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) in which the compressive sensing principle is then applied to the sparse subband signals. All parameters will be optimized using informal listening test and Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality (PESQ). In order to further reduce the bit requirement, vector quantization using codebook of the training signals will be added to the system. The performance of overall algorithms will be evaluated based on the processing time and speech quality. Finally, to speed up the process, the proposed algorithm will be implemented in a multicore system, i.e. six cores, using Single Program Multiple Data (SPMD) parallel paradigm.","PeriodicalId":376337,"journal":{"name":"2011 4th International Conference on Mechatronics (ICOM)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127714724","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}

The method consists of three modules: collection of input images, skin segmentation and feature extraction. To reduce processing time, we compare the absolute difference between two consecutive frames then choose which frames have the highest value. YCbCr colour space is selected as the skin model because it behaves in such a way that the illumination component is concentrated in a single component (Y) while the blue and red chrominance component is in Cb and Cr. The hand gestures trajectory is to be recognized by using two methods: template matching and division by shape. Template matching required the removal of the head of the signer, leaving with just 2 hands only. For division of shape, the gesture are grouped into 5 classifications of hand postures that is vertical, horizontal, 45° above, 45° below and overlapping with hands. A total of 43 frames were selected manually for each hand posture and analyzed to obtain the variation of hand gesture feature such as width, heights, angle and distance. Our experimental results show up to 80% of accuracy in identifying the forms of the gesture trajectory. It shows that the feature extraction method proposed in this paper is appropriate for defining particular gesture trajectory.","PeriodicalId":376337,"journal":{"name":"2011 4th International Conference on Mechatronics (ICOM)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130380916","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}
