, 2019 , Article)
There is an utmost requirement for technology to control a driver's phone while driving, which will prevent the driver from being distracted and thus saving the driver's and passenger;s lives. Information from recent studies ...
Image de-fencing framework with hybrid inpainting algorithm
(
Springer London
, 2016 , Article)
Detection and removal of fences from digital images become essential when an important part of the scene turns to be occluded by such unwanted structures. Image de-fencing is challenging because manually marking fence ...
Design and implementation of a quadruped amphibious robot using duck feet
(
MDPI AG
, 2019 , Article)
Roaming complexity in terrains and unexpected environments pose significant difficulties in robotic exploration of an area. In a broader sense, robots have to face two common tasks during exploration, namely, walking on ...
Flexible thermo-electrochemical cells using Iodolyte HI-30 for conversion of low-grade heat to electrical energy
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
In this research work, we investigated the flexible thermo-electro chemical cells (TECs) for the conversion of low-grade heat into electrical energy in the temperature range of 20–70 °C. The TECs were fabricated using 30 ...
Security-Enhanced SC-FDMA Transmissions Using Temporal Artificial-Noise and Secret Key Aided Schemes
