An automated 3D model-based object recognition system. A novel, practical 3D vision system is proposed as a platform for fundamental applied research in 3D data acquisition, object modelling and object recognition. The significance of the vision system lies in the advancement of knowledge in three key areas of computer vision, registration, recognition and error propagation.

A novel, practical 3D vision system is proposed as a platform for fundamental applied research in 3D data acquisition, object modelling and object recognition. The significance of the vision system lies in the advancement of knowledge in three key areas of computer vision, registration, recognition and error propagation. The result is a system capable of sensing, modelling and identifying arbitrarily shaped free-form objects in a scene, an attribute lacking in current systems. Such a system can provide substantial economic benefits to industrial procedures such as grasp planning and quality control.Read moreRead less

Development of Internet-based Kinematic GPS Solutions for Local and Regional Positioning Services. This interdisciplinary project develops a highly novel total network strategy for real-time kinematic GPS positioning services using the Internet communication protocols for data transmission. The proposed system is technically superior to existing network-based differential GPS (DGPS) systems, by providing positioning services at different accuracy levels (metre to centimetre) with reduced operati ....Development of Internet-based Kinematic GPS Solutions for Local and Regional Positioning Services. This interdisciplinary project develops a highly novel total network strategy for real-time kinematic GPS positioning services using the Internet communication protocols for data transmission. The proposed system is technically superior to existing network-based differential GPS (DGPS) systems, by providing positioning services at different accuracy levels (metre to centimetre) with reduced operational cost to users. The research focuses on improved network operations and processing, along with developing user-specific algorithms. The outcomes are expected to provide significant opportunities for both real time and near-real-time kinematic positioning applications and commercialisations of such services, in urban and regional areas of Australia.Read moreRead less
Automated Diagnosis of Faults in Rotating Machinery using Adaptive Network Based Fuzzy Inference. The long-term integrity of engineering assets depends on the quality of their maintenance which runs into billions of dollars per year in Australia. This project aims to develop a new fundamental automated technique for the detection and diagnosis of machinery faults. The innovation lies in the ability of this technique to not depend on knowledge of fault components in the discrete wavelet packet ....Automated Diagnosis of Faults in Rotating Machinery using Adaptive Network Based Fuzzy Inference. The long-term integrity of engineering assets depends on the quality of their maintenance which runs into billions of dollars per year in Australia. This project aims to develop a new fundamental automated technique for the detection and diagnosis of machinery faults. The innovation lies in the ability of this technique to not depend on knowledge of fault components in the discrete wavelet packet analysis. All other work conducted to date depends on knowledge of these components and their location. The results of this work will vastly improve the costly manually based diagnostics procedures in the maintenance of plant and industrial assets.Read moreRead less

Medical Device technologies embrace a wide range of scientific, engineering and medical knowledge, with the goal of assisting a clinical professional (doctor or nurse) deliver a service to a patient in an efficacious, cost effective manner. Development of appropriate medical devices, whether for diagnosis, treatment or prevention of disease or disability, is critical to improving health care and reducing health care costs. To be successful, a device must include all relevant disciplines in the research, development and testing phases. This network will bring together these groups, promoting knowledge sharing and cross-disciplinary investigations that illuminate current device limitations and potential solutions.Read moreRead less
