There is an increasing trend towards panel displays in consumer electronics, and they are already replacing conventional Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) displays due to their various advantages. However, the main problem of the panel displays, namely motion blur, still remains unsolved. This shortcoming should be overcome efficiently to satisfy increasing demands of viewers such as artifact-free interpolation in dynamic videos. Among many frame-rate up conversion (FRUC) methods that address this problem, motion-compensated frame interpolation (MCFI) algorithms yield superior results with relatively less artifacts. Conventional MCFI techniques utilize block-based translational motion models and, in general, linear interpolation schemes. These methods, however, suffer from blocking artifacts especially at object boundaries despite several attempts to avoid them. Region-based methods tackle this problem by segmenting homogeneous, or smoothly varying, motion regions that are supposed to correspond real objects (or their parts) in the scene. In this chapter, two region-based MCFI methods that adopt 2D homography and 3D rigid body motion models are presented in the order of increasing complexity. As opposed to the conventional MCFI approaches where motion model interpolation is performed in the induced 2D motion parameter space, the common idea behind both methods is to perform the interpolation in the parameter space of the original 3D motion and structure elements of the scene. Experimental results suggest that the proposed algorithms achieve visually pleasing results without halo effects on dynamic scenes with complex motion.

NEW HIGH-RESOLUTION DISPLAY DEVICE FOR HOLOGRAPHIC 3-DIMENSIONAL VIDEO - PRINCIPLES AND SIMULATIONS Akar, Gözde; ATALAR, A (SPIE-Intl Soc Optical Eng, 1994-03-01) A new acousto-optical holographic display device, which is expected to solve the display resolution and refresh problems that are common to available holographic displays, is proposed. The device is based on the reproduction of a hologram as a surface pattern using traveling surface acoustic waves (SAWs). There is an array of electrodes attached to the SAW device. An electrical signal applied to any one of these electrodes generates an acoustical wave propagating on the surface of the crystal. It signals ar...
A monolithic three axis silicon capacitive accelerometer with micro g resolution Junseok, Chae; Najefi, Khalil; Külah, Haluk (2003-06-12) A monolithic three-axis silicon capacitive accelerometer utilizing a combined surface and bulk micromachining technology is demonstrated with micro-g resolution. The accelerometer consists of three individual single-axis accelerometers. All three devices have full-wafer thick silicon proof-mass, large area polysilicon sense/drive electrodes, and small sensing gap (<1.5 /spl mu/m) formed by a sacrificial oxide layer. The fabricated accelerometer system is 7/spl times/9 mm/sup 2/ in size, has >5pF/g measured ...
A Test Setup for Evaluating Long-term Measurement Characteristics of Optical Mouse Sensors Kanburoglu, Furkan A; Dölen, Melik; Koku, Ahmet Buğra (2007-06-01) Due to significant advancements in optical navigation technology, optical mouse sensors (OMS) are increasingly employed as low-cost motion sensora in personal computing and robot navigation. This paper proposes a new test bed to study the long-term measurement characteristics of emerging OMS devices. With the utilization of this set-up, the attributes of a high-resolution OMS (Agilent ADNS-2051) are investigated under various critical operating conditions like changing surface velocity and the pattern. The ...
A Dual-Wavelength Pulsed Laser Processing Platform for a-Si Thin Film Crystallization Türker, Volkan; Yağcı, Mahmut Emre; Salman, Sarper Haydar; Çınar, Kamil; Eken, Semih Koray; Bek, Alpan (2019-06-01) Interest in laser crystallization (LC) of silicon (Si) thin films has been on the rise in fabrication of polycrystalline silicon (pc-Si) based thin/ultrathin photovoltaic solar cells and Si based thin film transistors (TFT). Laser based fabrication of device quality pc-Si thin films at room temperature is expected to be a key enabling technology because of its low energy, material and process time budget. Fabrication of high-quality pc-Si thin films without pre-/post-treatment at large is a disruptive techn...
A low-cost small pixel uncooled infrared detector for large focal plane arrays using a standard CMOS process Eminoglu, S; Tanrikulu, MY; Tezcan, DS; Akın, Tayfun (2002-04-03) This paper reports the development of a low-cost, small pixel uncooled infrared detector using a standard CMOS process. The detector is based on a suspended and thermally isolated p(+)-active/n-well diode whose forward voltage changes due to an increase in the pixel temperature with absorbed infrared radiation. The detector is obtained with simple post-CMOS etching steps on dies fabricated using a standard n-well CMOS process. The post-CMOS process steps are achieved without needing any deposition or lithog...
