  • Comparison of Deep Neural Network Learning Algorithms for Mars Terrain Image Segmentation
    Publication

    This paper is dedicated to the topic of terrain recognition on Mars using advanced techniques based on the convolutional neural networks (CNN). The work on the project was conducted based on the set of 18K images collected by the Curiosity, Opportunity and Spirit rovers. The data were later processed by the model operating in a Python environment, utilizing Keras and Tensorflow repositories. The model benefits from the pretrained...

  • Measuring Tilt with an IMU Using the Taylor Algorithm
    Publication

    This article addresses the important problem of tilt measurement and stabilization. This is particularly important in the case of drone stabilization and navigation in underwater environments, multibeam sonar mapping, aerial photogrammetry in densely urbanized areas, etc. The tilt measurement process involves the fusion of information from at least two different sensors. Inertial sensors (IMUs) are unique in this context because...

  • MEMS Modeling in the Context of Inertial Navigation

    Underwater navigation is a research topic current undertaken in many areas of underwater research. The article presents an analysis resulting from MEMS modelling in the context of inertial navigation. The ideal approach was confronted with its limitations, but a non-linear approach, close to the real one, was also presented. Both models were compared in the context of inertial navigation. Random disturbances and their impact on linear...

  • Non-Least Square GNSS Positioning Algorithm for Densely Urbanized Areas
    Publication

    The paper introduces an essentially new algorithm for calculating the GNSS position as an alternative to the least-square method. The proposed approach can be widely applied to any positioning method that uses multiple position lines for position calculation and is an example ofhow using a numerical solution can improve position accuracy without access to historical data. In essence, the method is based on the adaptation of the...

  • Proof of Concept of Indoor Location System Using Long RFID Readers and Passive Tags
    Publication

    The paper proposes a system for persons and objects location with the use of long radio-frequency identifications (RFIDs) readers. In order to investigate all aspects of the proposed location system, several key elements had to be analyzed, including the distance from which the tagged objects and the possibility of using more than one tag within one RFID range at the same time. When designing the system, it is also necessary to...

  • Quality of Cryptocurrency Mining on Previous Generation NVIDIA GTX GPUs

    Currently, there is a lot of previous generation NVIDIA GTX graphical processing units (GPUs) available on the market, which were ousted from by next-gen RTX units. Due to this fact, numerous fully-operational devices remain underused, which are available at an affordable price. First, this paper presents an analysis of the cryptocurrency market. Next, in this context, the results of research on the performance of NVIDIA graphics...

  • Autonomous Vehicle Navigation in Dense Urban Area in Global Positioning Context
    Publication

    Autonoumous vehicle services are likely to be adopted in dense urban area. Some research prove that autonomous transport might be capable of improving the transport needs of few times and as a consequence sustainability, congestion and safety may be improved. The world, hopefully is close to a transport revolution age. These studies are perhaps exaggerated, over-optimistic and far fro fully operational. The paper takes into account...

  • MEMS Technology Quality Requirements as Applied to Multibeam Echosounder

    Small, lightweight, power-efficient, and low-cost microelectromechanical system (MEMS) inertial sensors and microcontrollers, available in the market today, help reduce the instability of Multibeam Sonars. Current MEMS inertial measurement units (IMUs) come in many shapes, sizes, and costs — depending on the application and performance required. Although MEMS inertial sensors offer affordable, appropriately scaled units, they are...

  • Inertial Sensors Applications in Underwater Measurements
    Publication

    Over the past decades microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) researchers have demonstrated a number of microsensors for almost every possible sensing modality, including attitudes. Current MEMS inertial measurement units (IMU) come in many shapes, sizes, and costs — depending on the application, and performance required. MEMS sensors have proved and demonstrated performance exceeding those of their macroscale counterpart sensors. In...

  • MEMS Gyro in the Context of Inertial Positionning
    Publication

    - Year 2017

    The article undertake some vital aspect in geodesy, namely an inertial positioning problem using MEMS. Although MEMS inertial sensors offer affordable, appropriately scaled units, and though their inherent measurement noise can be relatively easily mitigated, there are still parameters due to they are not currently capable of meeting all requirements for the accurate and precise inertial positioning. The article presents crucial...
