We propose an automated camera setup for photogrammetric roughness analysis in the laboratory environment. The developed fast and low-cost automation setup can be very useful for tedious and laborsome manual field logging practices. The photographs are processed in MATLAB to obtain disparity maps. Coding routines for stereo photogrammetry and digital measurements are written in MATLAB. Secondly, 6 effecting factors (projecting an image onto core face, depth of field, brightness, camera-to-object to baseline distance ratio, projected image size, and occlusion) influencing noise in roughness depth maps computed by employing stereo photogrammetry are investigated. After deciding the best values that allow the lowest amount of noise, depth maps of 6 core faces are computed. Using the 3D point cloud generated, roughness profile measurements are made. Then, 8 profile measurements are made for each core face, both manually and digitally. The accuracy of the disparity maps has been verified by comparing 48 joint roughness coefficient (JRC) measurements made manually using a profile gauge. It was proved that surface roughness can be measured very fast in millimetric accuracy with an average root mean square error (RMSE) of 3.50 and mean absolute error (MAE) of 3.02 by the help of the proposed set-up and calibration.

We propose a design of a metamaterial based sensor to be used in various applications including micro-fluid, strain and rotation sensing. The structure has a simple geometry composed of a single circular split ring resonator (CSRR) and it is possible to adjust the resonance frequency in the region of desired band. The resonance frequency is carefully selected so that the materials to be sensed have linear dielectric curves at that particular frequency range which iscrucial to design accurate sensing charact...
Moving hot object detection in airborne thermal videos
Kaba, Utku; Akar, Gözde; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2012)
In this thesis, we present an algorithm for vision based detection of moving objects observed by IR sensors on a moving platform. In addition we analyze the performance of different approaches in each step of the algorithm. The proposed algorithm is composed of preprocessing, feature detection, feature matching, homography estimation and difference image analysis steps. First, a global motion estimation based on planar homography model is performed in order to compensate the motion of the sensor and moving ...
Design of a Novel THz Sensor for Structural Health Monitoring Applications
Pavia, J. P.; Ribeiro, M. A.; Sarikaya, C. K.; Akbar, D.; Altan, Hakan; Souto, N. (2019-01-01)
In this paper, we propose a study on the characterization, design and simulation of a THz sensor for applications in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). The proposed sensor is assembled using two frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) based on metamaterial wire resonators. We present a theoretical model to describe its electromagnetics which is used not only to understand the physical principles underlying the functioning of the sensor but also to determine a set of optimized parameters for its operation in th...
Prediction of Affective States through Non-invasive Thermal Camera and EMG Recordings
Gökçay, Didem; Baltaci, Serdar; Karahan, Cagri; Turkay, Kemal Dogus (2011-10-12)
We propose utilization of thermal camera recordings along with simultaneous EMG recordings to monitor the dynamically changing affective state of a human. Affective state is depicted along the valence and arousal dimensions, such that readings from EMG are mapped onto the valence axis and readings from the thermal camera are mapped onto the arousal axis. The combined system increases the accuracy in prediction of affective states due to a larger palette of extracted features.
Numerical design and investigation of plasmonic lenses for maximum power focusing
Güler, Sadri; Sür, Cem Gürkan; Ergül, Özgür Salih (2018-04-13)
We present the design and investigation of plasmonic lenses to achieve maximum power focusing for imaging applications. As opposed to commonly used slits opened on metallic structures, the designs are based on different arrangements of holes on metallic slabs. The structures are obtained via an optimization environment based on a three-dimensional numerical solver using an efficient implementation of the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) and optimization modules using genetic algorithm. We demonst...
