An apparatus, composition, and method for generating odor on demand. The apparatus includes a dispersing mechanism with a plurality of blister pockets each including a releasable aroma. A triggering mechanism is in combination with each of the plurality of blister pockets and configured to separately rupture individual blister pockets to release a corresponding releasable aroma. A controller is in actuating combination with the triggering mechanism. The controller is configured to monitor for at least one predetermined stimulus to actuate the triggering mechanism. The stimulus can include a predetermined text, sound, image, and/or location generated by the electronic device. A smart material can be used for holding and releasing the aroma or other compound. The smart material can include a porous polymer matrix, wherein the porous polymer matrix releases the material upon an actuation of the triggering mechanism. The invention further includes an electrospun fibrous structure with a hydrogel material having reversible properties for controlled release of the aroma, and a functionalized group to enhance water retention capability of the hydrogel in air. A physical property is reversibly altered as a result of a stimulus to release a compound or aroma and subsequently returns to an unaltered state resulting in containment of any remaining amounts of the compound or aroma.

Provided is a sludge drying composite conditioner. The sludge drying composite conditioner comprises a Fenton's reagent or/and Fenton-like reagent and a matrix construct, the weight ratio between the Fenton's reagent or/and the Fenton-like reagent and the matrix construct is 1:0.05 to 300, and the matrix construct is powder. Further provided is an application method of the sludge drying composite conditioner, which comprises the steps of: adding a Fenton's reagent or/and Fenton-like reagent in a sludge, performing stirring and mixing, and performing an oxidation reaction; and adding a matrix construct to the sludge added with the Fenton's reagent or/and Fenton-like reagent and performing stirring and mixing. For the sludge drying composite conditioner, through the coordinated effect of the Fenton's reagent or/and Fenton-like reagent and the powder matrix construct, the extracellular polymeric substances in the sludge are effectively damaged, the compressibility of organic matter is reduced, and the drying performance of sludge is improved. The application method thereof has a simple working process and easily controllable conditions and reduces the drying time for sludge, thereby achieving large-scale treatment of sludge.

A video-based vehicle headlight state monitoring method and system. A vehicle image can be captured by an image-capturing unit and converted to a grayscale image. The grayscale image can be processed to locate a front license plate and identify a position of a headlight region in front of the vehicle utilizing an algorithm. An average digital count with respect to brightness of the headlight region can be compared with average digital count with respect to brightness of several parts of the vehicle and a background region to determine the vehicle headlights ON/OFF status. The headlights can be considered ON if the digital count level of the headlight region is higher than the digital count of the several parts of the vehicle and the background region. A warning signal can be initiated to turn the headlights on during a special situation utilizing a signal generator.
摘要:
A method and a system for determining a parking boundary violation includes receiving video data from a sequence of frames taken from an image capture device monitoring a parking area including at least a single parking space. A boundary is determined for defining at least one parking space in the parking area. A vehicle is detected in the parking area. A determination is made whether the detected vehicle is violating a parking regulation based on a position and size of the vehicle within the boundary.
摘要:
A method for determining the occurrence of a short-term parking violation includes receiving video data in a sequence of frames provided by an image capture device monitoring a parking area over a duration of time. The method includes determining the presence of a vehicle captured in at least one of the sequence of frames. The method tracks the location of the vehicle across the sequence of frames. The method further determines a spatial location of the vehicle in each frame. The method includes determining spatio-temporal information describing the location of the vehicle as a function of time by associating the spatial location of the vehicle at each frame with the time instant at which the frame was captured. In response to the spatio-temporal information indicating that the vehicle becomes stationary, the method determines a duration that the vehicle is stationary using the determined spatio-temporal information of the vehicle.
