multiple issues Move to Wikibooks date December 2011 Motion Tracking using Java is the process of locating a moving object or several ones in time. An algorithm analyses the video frames and outputs the location of moving targets within the video frame. Libraries to Implement Motion tracking OpenCV It s a relatively easy thing for computers to see video, but computer vision goes a step further, applying a wide range of techniques by which computers can begin to understand and process the content of a video input. These techniques tend toward the primitive, but they can also produce aesthetically beautiful results. The best place to start with computer vision has long been the standard library, OpenCV. A free as in beer and freedom library ref name API developed by Intel and with ongoing use in a variety of applications, OpenCV is a terrific, C C based tool not just for things like motion tracking, but video processing in general. OpenCV gets a lot of support in the C based OpenFrameWorks, but that doesn t mean Java and Processing have to be left out of the fun. In fact, I d still recommend starting with Processing for OpenCV, because other tasks remain easier in Java.

Valuation using multiples is a method for determining the current value of a company by examining and comparing the financial ratio s of relevant peer groups, also often described as comparable company analysis or comps . The most widely used multiple is the P E ratio price earnings ratio P E ratio or PER of stocks in a similar industry. Using the average of multiple PERs improves reliability but it can still be necessary to correct the PER for current market conditions. P E multiples are popular in part due to their wide availability. The value of a business should, however, be reflected in multiples based on enterprise value EV EBITDA , EV Earnings before interest and taxes EBIT , EV NOPAT of a company. These multiples reveal the rating of a business independently of its capital structure, and are the most commonly used in transactions on private companies.

Laser speckle can be employed as a method for conducting a very sensitive eye test. ref Ennos AE, 1996, Phys. Educ, 31, 138 142 ref When a surface is illuminated by a laser beam and is viewed by an observer, a speckle pattern is formed on the retina. If the observer has perfect vision, the image of the surface is also formed on the retina, and movement of the head will result in the speckle pattern and the surface moving together so that the speckle pattern remains stationary with respect to the background. ref http isaac.exploratorium.edu pauld summer institute summer day1perception laserspeckleperception.htm ref If the observer is myopia near sighted , the image of the surface is formed in front of the retina. Since the speckle pattern is perceived by the brain to be on the retina, the effect is of parallax the speckle pattern appears to be nearer to the eye than the surface and hence moves in the same direction as the surface, but faster than the surface. If the observer is hyperopia far sighted , the speckles appear to move in the opposite direction as the surface, since in this case the surface image is focused behind the retina. The apparent speed of motion of the speckles increases with the magnitude of the defect of the eye. This technique is so sensitive that it can be used to determine changes in the ability of someone to focus through the day.

orphan date September 2010 Mergeto Optical modulator date June 2009 Optical modulators using semiconductor nano structures An optical modulator is an optical device which is used to modulate a beam of light with a perturbation device. It is a kind of transmitter to convert information to optical binary signal through optical fiber optical waveguide or transmission medium of optical frequency in fiber optic communication. There are several methods to manipulate this device depending on the parameter of a light beam like amplitude modulator majority , phase modulator , polarization modulator etc. The easiest way to obtain modulation is modulation of intensity of a light by the current driving the light source laser diode . This sort of modulation is called direct modulation, as opposed to the external modulation performed by a light modulator. For this reason, light modulators are called external light modulators. According to manipulation of the properties of material modulators are divided into two groups, absorptive modulators absorption coefficient and refractive modulators refractive index of the material . Absorption coefficient can be manipulated by Franz Keldysh effect, Quantum Confined Stark Effect , excitonic absorption, or changes of free carrier concentration. Usually, if several such effects appear together, the modulator is called electro absorptive modulator. Refractive modulators most often make use of electro optic effect amplitude & phase modulation , other modulators are made with acousto optic effect , magneto optic effect such as Faraday and Cotton Mouton effects. The other case of modulators is spatial light modulator SLM which is modified two dimensional distribution of amplitude & phase of an optical wave. Optical modulators can be implemented using Semiconductor Nano structures to increase the performance like high operation, high stability, high ... 2 DEFAULTSORT Optical Modulators Using Semiconductor Nano Structures Category Optical devices Category ... more details
