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 paper illustrates that despite the problems addressed, the positioning accuracy of an OMS could be quite sufficient for some basic process control apptications.

A Cloud Based Architecture for Distributed Real Time Processing of Continuous Queries Gökalp, Mert Onuralp; Koçyiğit, Altan; Department of Information Systems (2015) The technological advancements in Internet of Things (IoT) domain have enabled us to reshape the physical world through smart devices, sensors and actuators. The data collected by IoT devices has become a valuable asset to extract knowledge about the environment and other nearby devices. Existing IoT applications mostly store collected data in a central server and allow users to query stored data to notice and react to changes in the environment. Usually cloud and big data technologies are utilized in those...
A novel approach for robot homing Koku, Ahmet Buğra; WİLKES, D Mitch (2003-06-27) Although metric navigation techniques have been widely adapted in robot navigation, some powerful qualitative navigation methods have been proposed to achieve navigation. These methods do not require strict metric measures or presence of metric maps. This paper briefly introduces such qualitative navigation techniques and introduces a novel approach for qualitative robot navigation. Comparison of this method to some existing ones is given and performance analysis is presented. This technique requires less a...
A Novel Neural Network Architecture for Radar Clutter Classification Eraslan, Berna; Güvensen, Gökhan Muzaffer; Tanık, Yalçın (2020-01-01) In recent years, potential capabilities of modern radars have become tremendous, with rapid advances in electronics and software technologies. If the radar system processes received echoes based on clutter characteristics, detection performance significantly improves. To classify clutters, neural network structures are studied. A problem specific architecture, specialized in clutter classification, is designed. The design procedure of the neural network is explained with necessary theoretical background inf...
A bulk-micromachined fully-differential MEMS accelerometer with interdigitated fingers Aydin, Osman; Akın, Tayfun (2012-10-31) This paper proposes a novel bulk-micromachined MEMS accelerometer employing interdigitated sense fingers that provide a fully-differential (FD) signal interface, where the accelerometer can be fabricated by a modified Silicon-on-Glass (M-SOG) process utilizing a <;111>; Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) wafer. The accelerometer combines the feasibility of fabricating large mass and high aspect ratio structures using bulk-micromachining together with the high sensitive interdigitated sense finger triplets that are ...
A complex event processing framework implementation using heterogeneous devices in smart environments Kaya, Muammer Özge; Eren, Pekin Erhan; Department of Information Systems (2012) Significant developments in microprocessor and sensor technology make wirelessly connected small computing devices widely available; hence they are being used frequently to collect data from the environment. In this study, we construct a framework in order to extract high level information in an environment containing such pervasive computing devices. In the framework, raw data originating from wireless sensors are collected using an event driven system and converted to simple events for transmission over a...
