Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) aims at improving the driving safety and security. It employs multiple sensing systems in cars for driver monitoring, driving analysis, security and safety features. This paper discusses ADAS system, SAE safety standards, Radar fundamentals and Radar measurements for target localization, classification, and tracking.

In this paper, we explain the various video processing options on system hardware (GPU) provided by different vendors and how to efficiently use them on Mac and Windows platforms. VImage and video tool box APIs are available for Mac platforms. Intel Media SDK, AMD media SDK and AMD Framewave are available for Windows platforms. We also demonstrate a typical use case how these APIs can be plugged and used across these platforms.

Google’s Android platform based on Linux uses its own custom IPC mechanism called Binder. Binder takes care of communication between various processes. This paper describes the Binder framework and gives some details of its implementation in C and C++. The paper is intended to be an overview of the Binder system; it will not deal with deep technical details of the Binder framework implementation.

This paper mainly talks about the technical aspects of SmartDeviceLink. It describes the basic software features that the Head unit of the Car has to support to integrate this open-source technology. It also talks about the mobile proxy components that provide a common, abstracted interface to the in-vehicle infotainment system for its integration to SmartDeviceLink-enabled mobile applications.

WCE involves a small capsule capable of recording patient’s organs after being swallowed and has gained popularity in recent times because of its ability to potentially capture parts of the GI tract that were never before seen outside operative surgery.This paper provides an introduction to WCE and examines the need and the scope of image processing/computer vision algorithms in the automated analysis of WCE videos and also looks at a few basic methods in practice.

Get an insight on different types of image quality assessment methods and the importance assessing the quality of an image. This paper also covers the different image quality factors and the objective measurement of those metrics.

Google’s Android OS based on Linux uses its own custom IPC mechanism called Binder. Binder takes care of communication between various processes. This paper describes the Binder framework and gives some details of its implementation in C and C++.

In this paper, we propose and explain two efficient optimization approaches on H264 decoder. One is efficient utilization of SIMD for deblocking filter and algorithmic level optimization in the core decoding path.

This paper outlines lossless encoding mode of HEVC and how using lossless encoding mode, compression ratio of more than 2 (2:1) can be achieved.

Bluetooth 4.2 core specification provides various methods to secure the communication between devices and establish trusted connections. This paper describes the design considerations to secure the Bluetooth smart devices.
