Need to perform robust feature extraction and tracking to determine the motion of the camera with respect to a stationary background ?

i have tried to use intensity thresholding but the variations make this unreliable. I need to determine a way to efficiently extract reliable features within a ROI (which can be determined by the last known speed of the platform) and correspond these between successive images to determine speed ? Are there any image analysis/image processing gurus out there? I have enclosed a typical image from one of my sequences (please note the faint stripe of light moves with the platform - it is not a stationary feature)

I tried equalizing your image (Lookup Table: Equalize) and searched for a horizantal edge (Find Straight Edge: Horizantal Edge) with a very high contrast value (100) inside a very big ROI and that seems to work fairly robust. I'm attaching the Vision Builder Script.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Regarding Feature extraction and classification in labview

Hello ,
I m trying to implement voila jones face detection algorithm in labview (for ni 1762).I am very new to labview. can anyone please help me with how to do feature extraction and classification in this context in labview ? sample vi would be much appreciated .
Regards!!

Vision Development Module features a binary particle classifier and color classifier. In addition, it includes a more generic "custom" classifier that you can use to solve this application.
You need to use the custom classifier feature of Vision Development Module accessible through the Machine Vision>>Classification palette.
The custom classifier train sample based on a feature vector (1D array of doubles) that you have to provide. You will have to compute feature vectors for the different faces based on data that you extract from the image using other image processing algorithms provided in Vision Development Module.
Once you have this, you can create a custom classfier using IMAQ Create Custom Classifier, then add custom samples using IMAQ Add Custom Samples, train the classfier using one of the engine (look at the Classifier Engines palette).
Once the classifier is trained, use IMAQ Classify Custom to classify an unknown sample.

Upgrading from 10.4.11 to 10.7. What are the steps and do I also need to pay for 10.5 and 10.6 along the way?

Hi. I wannt to upgrade from 10.4.11 to 10.7.
What are the steps and do I also need to pay for 10.5 and 10.6 along the way?
According to the 10.7 lion page on 'store' it says that you need 10.6 to use it does this mean I'm going to have to do 3 upgrades?
Thanks

Why do yoy want Lion/10.7???
Anyway, if your Mac meets the requirements you can skip 10.5.x, and even 10.6.x if you can afford to erase all your data.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It looks like they might still have it...

If it's a core Duo & not a Core2Duo, then it'll only run in 32 bit mode.
Lion/101.7 System requirements
    •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
    •    At least 2GB of memory[14]
    •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
    •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading[14]
Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

If it scare y ou then take the machien back and ask the Apple Store to do this for you. What has probably filled your computer is large libraries such as music, photos and movies. Apple explains how to move those libraries to an external HD. Please read:

FCPX crashed and I reported it here. Tom Wolsky suggested I trash prefs, perform an fsck, reboot and redownload FCPX from the App store. The reboot was okay but Safari will not let me access the App Store to redownload FCP. I'm running 10.6.8 but the App Store icon is grayed out. I get a "Safari doesn't recognize addresses starting with macappstore."
How do I get to the App Store to get FCPX back? I'm using the Trial version now.

How are you linking to the App Store from Safari? From this page?

Need to get a mibile computer and i am considering the macbook pro 15". Is that a good idea?

Need to get a mibile computer and i am considering the macbook pro 15". Is that a good idea?

The 15" is the ideal size, the 17" is a bit larger and more comfortable.
The 13" is a bit cramped, the 11" forget it.
The 11 and 13" have the poor Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics (solely) which are not good at 3D gaming/video and tend to overheat as the CPU is also doing the graphics.
The 2.0 Ghz 15" MacBook Pro has a slightly better video card that does average on most current 3D games.
The 2.2Ghz MacBook Pro (and higher) does excellently on 3D games with the powerful 1GB radeon 6750M and "future proofs" your computer investment for 3, 5, 7 years or longer.
It all depends upon your portability and use needs.
If your not a 3D gamer and can afford to replace your machine in shorter time periods and all you need is a basic laptop, then one of the smaller thinner machines will do. In fact even a Windows PC laptop can do. There really isn't any advantage of going for a Mac laptop at the lower end excpet for status symbol appeal. Your going to be paying $1500 for a laptop that a $800 PC will do just as well.
However if your needing more of a portable workhorse machine the 2.2 Ghz MacBook Pro or better is ideal, it can run jsut about all the operating systems out there well, bootcamp into Windows and everythng with it's strong hardware and decent sized screen.
Also the 15" and up have the optional ANTI-GLARE screens which is great for classes and at work where you can't control the enviroment to reduce reflections.
If your on the go a lot, you can get a iPad in addition to the 15" MacBook Pro, if you need a larger screen you can buy that and use the MBP as a desktop machine sort of.
The smaller Mac machines don't drive a larger monitor very well, really you need a dedicated graphics card.

Hi, I've got no music or videos on my ipad and itunes advise that I have 23gb of 'other' material therefore the sync is unable to perform. I was forced to perform a restore earlier and now cant see the videos/music so want to replace. Pls assist, thanks

Hi, I'm unable to see if I have any music/videos/photos on my ipad and itunes advise that I have 23gb of 'other' material therefore the sync is unable to perform when transfering music/videos to the ipad.

23 GB of other indicates a corrupt file(s). A restore should resolve.

How do I put photos in an album and remove them from the camera roll?

I would like to be able to move photos into an album and remove them from the camera roll. Is this possible?
I take many photos of mundane things that I simply want to remember, such as serial number of products. I would like to save these photos for viewing, but I don't want them to appear in my camera roll, where I have to continuously scroll through many such photos to get to the ones that I want to view there.
I know that Apple has a "hide" feature, but it doesn't actually do anything. When I press-and-hold on individual photos, the photos stay in the camera roll: they aren't hidden at all. It's not clear what the purpose of this function is at all.

You don't do this, as the photos are in the camera roll. That is where they live. When you make an album you are simply making a list of pointer to your photos in camera roll.
If you remove them from the camera roll, then they are gone.
Photos in albums are not in two places. They are in only one place, the camera roll. The album merely contains pointers to those pics, so that you can categorize them however you like.
You should be importing these pics to your computer. I find it far easier to organize my photos on my computer, then sync them to the iPhone.

Unless it’s in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.

Hi I'm from the UK and I'm visiting the US in June I was wondering would I be able to buy a Mac mini over in the US and use it in the UK with a power adapter. Thanks!

You won't need a plug adapter if you buy a figure-of-eight mains lead (like most portable radios etc) with a UK plugtop to replace the original lead.

I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home. I have a cable modem. Help please!

I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home. I have a cable modem. Help please!

If you mean that you cannot remember the password for your WiFi network this will work for you - or it should work if you are the administrator on the Mac.
You will need to be logged in as the administrator on your Mac and you must know the password - Open Keychain Access on your Mac in the utilities folder, click on Passwords. Find the Airport Network Password listed on the right. Double click on it. Click on show password in the the window that pops up. Enter your administrator password when prompted and click allow.
If Keychain is locked - you must enter the administrator password there as well to unlock it and access the password.
If you have set the Mac up for Internet Sharing for the iPad to share the Mac's connection, just create a new network On the Mac with Internet sharing and a new password.

I bought the iphone 4s about a year ago, he was not new. The seller told me that he did the factory unlock, but he lied. Now I live in Russia and want to use the iPhone with a local GSM sim card.

Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.

Can I set up folders for major classifications of music as opera, country, etc. and then put all the albums with the genre into those folders folders?

Hi Richard Bugdal1,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
You can't change the folder structure within iTunes, but you can easily change the view to sort by Genre.
The link below will explain how to do this:

I’ve got a new MacBookair11 2weeks ago and I am very happy with it. Today I’ve tried to synchronize it via icloud with my ipad and I have lost the camera.
Looking through help in internet I found out that I had to reset the SMC. I did exactly as per instructions given but with no luck.
Is there any other solutions that will fix my camera for facetime and iphoto?
Thanks for your help
