[Method] Firstly, the photographic mode of a common digital camera was set as "macro" (or "soft snap" ) and "flash off". Secondly, the small flower or fruit was magnified with a magnifying glass, and then the magnified flower or fruit was automatically focused with the digital camera lens. After automatic focusing, the shutter button was pressed and the photograph finished. [Result] With this method, the clear inflo- rescence or floral photographs of Eragrostis pilosa ( Gramineae ) , Bidens biternata (Compositae) and Tribulus terrester (Zygophllaceae) were obtained in field. [ Conclusion] The optical system of a digital camera has been changed by the magnifying glass, which improves the photographic function of a common digital camera to small flowers and fruits, and also easily gets their clear photographs.展开更多

A new and cost-effective platform of airborne remote sensing is the UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) or drone. In this experimental work, aerial photos were made in Bakony Mountains using three UAVs equipped with small HD (high definition) cameras; resolution: 1,280 ~ 720 pixels. Within the framework of this work, a small lake was photographed, where the beginning of eutrophication was detected. This hardly can be observed from ground, however, it is visible on the aerial photos. The airborne surveillance of areas of ragweed (Ambrosia sp.) populations was also investigated. It was found that both UAVs are feasible for these tasks, and the application of these platforms for environmental monitoring is advantageous, especially in case of natural reserve areas since those are very silent and--contrary to big aircrafts and helicopters---do not disturb the ecology even in natural reserve areas and the people living there. Moreover, those could be operated in a very flexible and economic way, and the aerial photos taken are highly informative.展开更多

Sadly, tourists, numbering nearly four million per year, have taken a heavy toll on many of these ancient structures. Of particular concern are many of tombs located opposite Luxor on the western bank of the Nile. Digital reconstruction of these tombs has the potential of helping to document and preserve these important historical structures. Issues concernng new and unique problems involving the photographing and digital reconstruction of these tombs are addressed. Techniques for removing image distortions, recovering 3-D shapes and correcting for lighting imbalances are discussed. A complete reconstruction of the tomb of Sennediem is shown.展开更多
The 2D CCD camera has been used to take photos during hydrogen multi-pellet injection in HL-1M tokamak.

The hydrogen multi-pellet (2 × 1.0 mm, 3× 1.2 mm, 3×1.2 ~ 1.3 mm) is horizontally injected into plasma. The observation is performed above the injection path at a sight angle 13.4°,As the shape of cloud ablation varies so quickly, the key points of the experiment have to be the high temporal resolution of CCD and the determination of pellet radial location in plasma. A series of improvements have been made with the experiment setup, including camera parameter, control (NA, ROI) and trigger mode, so as to satisfy the experiment requirements. Thus very nice photos along with the satisfying experimental results are obtained such as: (1) single exposure time reduced to 100 us (2) multi-frame in one discharge (FPS≥ 40) (3)multi-exposure for one pellet so that further observation of the temporal process of pellet ablation may be possible. Through the data analysis on the spatial distibution of pellet ablation clouds in photos taken, the pellet dimensions, trajectory of the cloud and pellet velocity are obtained, and the physical mechanism of pellet-plasma interactions also analyzed. In particular, it is possible to provide an effective means for measuring q-profile of HL-1M plasma.展开更多
