Weapon Aiming System

Abstract

This project aims to develop a conceptual prototype of a weapon aiming system that simulates an anti-aircraft gun. Utilizing an optical camera, the system detects moving objects and calculates their trajectories in real time. The results are then used to control a motorized laser pointer with two degrees of freedom (DoF) of rotation, enabling it to aim at the predicted position of the target. Our system is built on the Raspberry Pi platform, employing machine vision software. The object motion tracking functionality was developed using the OpenCV library, based on color detection algorithms. Experimental results indicate that the system successfully detects the movement of a tennis ball at a rate of 30 frames per second (fps). The current phase involves designing and integratively testing the mechanical system for precise laser pointer position control. This project exemplifies the integration of knowledge in electronics (computer programming) and mechanical engineering (motor control).

Objective

COMMUNICATION ASSISTANCE SYSTEM FOR PARALYZED IMMOBILE PATIENTS BY EYE TRACKING

This project aims to design and develop an eye-tracking system to facilitate communication for paralyzed immobile patients. The system is designed to enable patients to convey their needs to caregivers or family members by detecting and tracking eye movements using the Tobii Eye Tracker 5 device. This approach serves as an alternative communication method, replacing the physical movement or speech of paralyzed patients. The system effectively detects and tracks eye movements at a distance of 55 to 85 centimeters and is designed for installation on a computer to ensure ease of use. The program interface consists of three main sections: (1) a set of emotions, (2) a set of needs, and (3) a set of additional needs. It supports input from a virtual keyboard in both Thai and English and allows users to specify additional needs through eye-tracking-enabled typing. Furthermore, the system can generate synthetic speech for text that is difficult to pronounce aloud, send notification messages via the Line application, and store usage data in a database presented in a dashboard format. System testing revealed that the optimal detection distance ranges from 65 to 75 centimeters, as this range yields an error rate of no more than 1 percent. The system accurately responds to eye movements for communication through sound within 3 seconds when interacting with various function buttons. This eye-tracking system effectively enables paralyzed immobile patients to communicate their emotions and needs, facilitating better understanding and interaction between patients and their caregivers or family members.
