Parameterized Image Filtering Using fuzzy LogicEditor IJCATR
The principal source of blur in digital images arise during image acquisition (digitization) or transmission. The
performance of imaging sensors is affected by a variety of factors, such as the environmental conditions during image acquisition.
Blurry images are the result of movement of the camera during shooting (not holding it still) or the camera not being capable of
choosing a fast enough shutter speed to freeze the action under the light conditions. For instance, in acquiring images with a camera,
light levels and sensor temperature are major factors affecting the amount of blur in the resulting image.
Blur was implemented by first creating a PSF filter in MatLab that would approximate linear motion blur. This PSF was then
convolved with the original image to produce the blurred image. Convolution is a mathematical process by which a signal, in this case
the image, is acted on by a system, the filter, in order to find the resulting signal. The amount of blur added to the original image
depended on two parameters of the PSF: length of blur (in pixels), and the angle of the blur. This thesis work is going to provide a
new, faster, and more efficient noise reduction method for images corrupted with motion blur. This new filter has two separated steps
or phases: the detection phase and the filtering phase. The detection phase uses fuzzy rules to determine whether a image is blurred or
not. When blurry image is detected, Then we use fuzzy filtering technique focuses only on the on the real blurred pixels.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Motion Light Detector Bulb
Challenges of the Current Systems
Requirements
In public and private institutions, the problem of switching off light and other appliances
wherever it is not needed is a concern. In Limkokwing University Sierra Leone, the issue led
to various rules that try to limit the way light is being used in the halls of residence, classrooms
and other buildings. The main aim of this project is to conserve energy. This project presents
the construction of a power control system which can detect the approach of a person, and
then turn the power of a room on. The project involves four stages: the power supply stage,
the Motion sensor stage, the Light Sensor stage and the Button mechanism stage. The power
supply stage involves the supply of power to the circuit and the sensor. The sensor stage
consists the passive infrared sensor which is the core part of the project. It detects the radiated
heat energy from a person and converts the energy to an electrical signal which is sent to the
circuit for processing. The circuit then processes the signal and sends a specific voltage to the
relay that actuates the power switch to on. When nobody is detected, the power is turned off.
Conclusively, the constructed energy control system prevents energy wastage in the lecture
halls, classrooms and other buildings.
Benefits of Having Motion Light Sensor
Improved Home Security
Burglars, vandals, and other criminals typically target properties where the residents are either
away or asleep. They really don’t want to be seen breaking into a home, since neighbors could
alert the authorities. That’s why home security experts recommend installing exterior lights
around your home. You can deter criminals from targeting your home and family by installing
motion sensor floodlights, door lights, and other exterior lights. These lights switch on
automatically when anybody comes too close to your property.
Enhanced Safety
Humans aren’t the only creatures you need protection from. Depending on where you live,
wildlife can pose a threat to you, your family and your pets. Raccoons, coyotes, mountain
lions and bears can all come close to your home searching for food. However, they’ll be scared
away if your exterior lighting comes on as soon as they approach your home.
More Convenience
Have you ever come home after dark with a car full of groceries and the kids in the backseat?
Then you’ll know how much of a hassle it is to try to park the car as close to the house as
possible and unlock the door — all while keeping the kids within sight — just so you can switch
on the exterior lights. With a motion sensor, you can have the lights come on as soon as you
pull into your driveway. Your porch light will turn on when you step onto the porch. That way,
you never have to worry about having enough light to get everyone and everything safely
indoors.
4. 2
Energy Savings
Of course, many homeowners who don’t have motion sensors installed on their property
simply leave their exterior lights on all day and night. While this is certainly a solution that
offers more safety, security, and convenience than no lighting at all, it’s also one that requires
a lot of energy. Motion-sensor activated exterior lighting eliminates the need to keep your
lights on 24/7 and as a result, significantly reduces the amount of energy your household
consumes.
Cost Savings
Since you don’t need to keep your porch, driveway and other outdoor lights on at all with
motion activated exterior lighting, you’ll consume less energy. This means your energy bill will
be considerably lower at the end of each month. Installing a motion sensor on your property
adds security, safety, and convenience, it also reduces your energy consumption and keeps
your power bills low.
PROPOSED SOLUTION (REQUIREMENTS ANALYSIS)
The light should turn on when it is dark and there is movement towards the front door. The
light should also stay on if a manual override button is switched on.
There are four inputs for the circuit:
• A Light Sensor (represented by L)
• A motion sensor (represented by M)
• A button (represented by B)
• A Power Source (represented by P)
The circuit must have one output:
• The light (represented by L)
Propositions and Logical Operator
Provided if there is a power source: if the light sensor shows that it is dark (T, T) and the
motion sensor detects movement (T, T), then the light is on (T, T). addition, the light is on if
the override button is switched on. As the button input is an alternative condition.
Q is only True when:
1. P and M are True ( B L M P )
2. P and B are True (B L M P)
3. B, M and P are True (B L M P)
4. B, L and P are True (B L M P)
5. B, L, M and P are all True (B L M P)
Q = ( B L M P ) V (B L M P) V (B L M P) V (B L M
