(From MEDLINE abstracts; personal communication from Dr. Charles Berthold, NIDR)Angiography, Digital Subtraction: A method of delineating blood vessels by subtracting a tissue background image from an image of tissue plus intravascular contrast material that attenuates the X-ray photons. The background image is determined from a digitized image taken a few moments before injection of the contrast material. The resulting angiogram is a high-contrast image of the vessel. This subtraction technique allows extraction of a high-intensity signal from the superimposed background information. The image is thus the result of the differential absorption of X-rays by different tissues.Radiographic Image Enhancement: Improvement in the quality of an x-ray image by use of an intensifying screen, tube, or filter and by optimum exposure techniques.

Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.Iloprost: An eicosanoid, derived from the cyclooxygenase pathway of arachidonic acid metabolism.

Larsen scoring of digitized X-ray images. (1/62)

OBJECTIVE: To determine how Larsen scores from digitized X-rays compare to those from film originals. METHODS: A hundred sets of radiographs of patients recruited with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were assessed using the Larsen scoring system. Digitized copies of these sets were then viewed on a computer screen and scored according to Larsen in a random order. The quality of the digitized image was also recorded. For each set of X-rays, the signed difference between the score from film and the score from the digitized images was calculated. RESULTS: A total of 95% of the digitized X-ray sets were scored successfully; 5% were not scored due to the images being unreadable. The mean difference between the two sets of scores was -1.2 (95% CI [-2.06, -0.37]). There was no trend in the difference with respect to the mean of the two scores (P>0.1). CONCLUSION: The Larsen scoring of digitized X-ray images has been validated.  (+info)

A new method of measuring propagation coefficients and characteristic impedance in blood vessels. (2/62)

True propagation coefficients of pulse wave harmonics in an artery can be determined in vivo by measuring pulsatile blood pressure and flow at each of two points along the length of the vessel. These coefficients, which are complex numbers that describe the attenuation and the phase shift imposed on a traveling wave, are independent of the reflected waves in the circulation and thus provide information about the viscoelastic state and other properties of an artery. The equations involved are implicit in standard transmission-line theory, but they have not previously been applied in this particular way to blood vessels. The femoral artery, exposed in situ, was studied in 11 anesthetized dogs. At 1.5 Hz, true attenuation constants averaged 0.0151 nepers/cm, and true phase constants averaged 0.0155 radians/cm. As frequency increased, the apparent phase velocity of flow, in contrast, was relatively low at the first harmonic and rose as frequency increased. True phase velocities lay between the apparent pressure and flow values. Characteristic impedance at 1.5 Hz had an average modulus of 1.76 times 10-4 dyne sec/cm5 and a phase of minus 0.31 radians. The modulus diminished as frequency increased, and the phase became less negative. These results show that true phase constants and characteristic impedances determined by this method are consistent with data reported by others and provide information not previously available about flow wave propagation.  (+info)

Nonlinear contribution of eye velocity to motion perception. (3/62)

The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that an extra-retinal signal combines with retinal velocity in a linear manner as described by existing models to determine perceived velocity. To do so, we utilized a method that allowed the determination of the relative contributions of the retinal-velocity and the extra-retinal signals for the perception of stimulus velocity. We determined the velocity (speed and direction) of a stimulus viewed with stationary eyes that was perceptually the same as the velocity of the stimulus viewed with moving eyes. Eye movements were governed by the tracking (or pursuit) of a separate pursuit target. The velocity-matching data were unable to be fit with a model that linearly combined a retinal-velocity signal and an extra-retinal signal. A model that was successful in explaining the data was one that takes the difference between two simple saturating non-linear functions, g and f, each symmetric about the origin, but one having an interaction term. That is, the function g has two arguments: retinal velocity, R, and eye velocity, E. The only argument to f is retinal velocity, R. Each argument has a scaling parameter. A comparison of the goodness of fits between models demonstrated that the success of the model is the interaction term, i.e. the modification of the compensating eye velocity signal by the retinal velocity prior to combination.  (+info)

Characterization and use of a digital light projector for vision research. (4/62)

For creating stimuli in the laboratory, digital light projection (DLP) technology has the potential to overcome the low output luminance, lack of pixel independence, and limited chromaticity gamut of the cathode ray tube (CRT). We built a DLP-based stimulator for projecting patterns on the in vitro primate retina. The DLP produces high light levels and has good contrast. Spatial performance was similar to that of a CRT. Temporal performance was limited by the refresh rate (63 Hz). The chromatic gamut was modestly larger than that of a CRT although the primary spectra varied to a small degree with light output and numerical aperture.  (+info)

An investigation of the centres of pressure under the foot while walking. (5/62)

The forces under the foot while walking have been measured using a high sensitivity force-plate of the strip-suspended type combined with simultaneous filming of the sole of the foot. The recording of data and the calculation and plotting of results were much simplified by computer aid. Normal and abnormal feet, both barefoot and shod, were investigated in sixteen subjects. It was found that in normal barefoot walking the forefoot carried a total load of the order of three times that of the heel. When footwear was worn the function of the forefoot was progressively reduced as the rigidity of the sole of the shoe increased. Painful conditions of the forefoot also produced a large reduction in the proportion of the total load transferred.  (+info)

A small-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K+ current and Cl- current in rat dental pulp cells. (6/62)

We characterized a voltage-dependent ionic current in dental pulp cells on dental pulp slices using a nystatin perforated-patch recording configuration. The outward currents in dental pulp cells were inhibited by the following channel blockers: 1) Ca(2+)-free extracellular solution containing 10 mM Ba2+, 2) extracellular 400 nM apamin and 3) extracellular 300 nM 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS). On the other hand, 15 mM tetraethylammonium (TEA) did not inhibit the outward currents. The inhibitory effects of Ca(2+)-free extracellular solution, apamin and DIDS had voltage-dependency. These results indicated that dental pulp cells expressed a small-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K+ current (SK current) and a DIDS-sensitive Cl- current. The functional significance of these channels is discussed.  (+info)

Computer-assisted mammographic imaging. (7/62)

Computer-assisted mammography imaging comprises computer-based analysis of digitized images resulting in prompts aiding mammographic interpretation and computerized stereotactic localization devices which improve location accuracy. The commercial prompting systems available are designed to draw attention to mammographic abnormalities detected by algorithms based on symptomatic practise in North America. High sensitivity rates are important commercially but result in increased false prompt rates, which are known to distract radiologists. A national shortage of breast radiologists in the UK necessitates evaluation of such systems in a population breast screening programme to determine effectiveness in increasing cancer detection and feasibility of implementation.  (+info)

Ocular oscillations on eccentric gaze. (8/62)

Many normal individuals show ocular oscillations on eccentric gaze. This study was designed to investigate the effect of visual disengagement and visual feedback on the nature of these end point oscillations. Three test conditions were examined: target present, target absent and when the target position was determined by the subject's eye position via a variable feedback control system. Feedback gains (i.e. target velocity/eye velocity) ranged from 0, where the target position was decoupled from the subject's eye movements (i.e. the target is stationary on the screen), to +1.0 where the retinal image was stabilised (i.e. the target is driven by the subject's eye movements). Only subjects who exhibited sustained end-point oscillations with no latency were included in the study (n=6). Seven different oscillations including square-wave jerks were recorded in the abducting eye during eccentric gaze of a stationary target. The three most common oscillations were the jerk oscillations, with decelerating, linear or pendular slow phases. A number of additional previously unreported waveforms were also recorded. On removal of the target, the mean drift velocity of the slow phase was greatly reduced. The response to the introduction of a change in the visual feedback was specific to each subject, although in all cases, the end-point oscillations generally were of a lower velocity, and gaze was shifted by up to 8 deg in the direction of the slow phase within the first two seconds. The important role of slow eye movement control for maintaining gaze holding is discussed.  (+info)

The time-interleaved analog-to-digital converter (TIADC) is an architecture used to achieve a high sampling rate and high dynamic performance. However, estimation and compensation methods are required to maintain the dynamic performance of the constituent analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) due to channel mismatches. This paper proposes a blind adaptive method to calibrate the nonlinear mismatches in M-channel TIADCs (M-TIADCs). The nonlinearity-induced error signal is reconstructed by the proposed multiplier Hadamard transform (MHT) structure, and the nonlinear parameters are estimated by the filtered-X least-mean square (FxLMS) algorithm. The performance of cascade calibration is also analyzed. The numerical simulation results show that the proposed method consumes much less hardware resources while maintaining the calibration performance.

Digital-to-analog converter - Wikipedia  Digital-to-analog converter - Wikipedia
In electronics, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC, D/A, D2A, or D-to-A) is a system that converts a digital signal into an analog signal. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) performs the reverse function. There are several DAC architectures; the suitability of a DAC for a particular application is determined by figures of merit including: resolution, maximum sampling frequency and others. Digital-to-analog conversion can degrade a signal, so a DAC should be specified that has insignificant errors in terms of the application. DACs are commonly used in music players to convert digital data streams into analog audio signals. They are also used in televisions and mobile phones to convert digital video data into analog video signals which connect to the screen drivers to display monochrome or color images. These two applications use DACs at opposite ends of the frequency/resolution trade-off. The audio DAC is a low-frequency, high-resolution type while the video DAC is a high-frequency low- to ...

Automated Frequency Analysis, Automated Event Detection - Topographic Mapping This discussion is concerned with certain unique and valuable procedures that are possible using digital EEG (dEEG).. In dEEG, the continuously varying (analog) voltage changes detected by the electrodes are led into amplifiers, and then into analog-to-digital converters. The converter output consists of numerical values that are stored in a computer and are available for detailed analysis. (There are stringent requirements for the details of the digitization process but these are not discussed here.). Digital EEGs are always recorded using a common reference montage. Thus, activity at each electrode site is referenced to a single electrode. The recordings can then be remontaged as necessary to display the data to better advantage. (Remontaging, a very valuable feature of dEEG, has been discussed earlier.). Specific Uses of Digital EEG:. 1. Analysis of background rhythms (BGR) and special methods of presenting the ...

Comparison of two thermometer-to-binary decoders for high-performance flash ADCs  Comparison of two thermometer-to-binary decoders for high-performance flash ADCs
The performance of flash analog-to-digital converters is affected significantly by the choice of thermometer-tobinary decoder topology. In this work two different promising decoder topologies, multiplexer-based and onescounter, are evaluated. Two converters with different decoders, but otherwise similar, are therefore designed. Two test chips are also sent for manufacturing in a 130 nm silicon-on-insulator CMOS technology. The converter performance is evaluated by simulations using foundry provided models. The results show that both decoders can be used in high-speed converters, but the ones-counter decoder is more robust and yield a higher converter efficiency.. ...

Flash ADC - Wikipedia  Flash ADC - Wikipedia
A flash ADC (also known as a direct-conversion ADC) is a type of analog-to-digital converter that uses a linear voltage ladder with a comparator at each "rung" of the ladder to compare the input voltage to successive reference voltages. Often these reference ladders are constructed of many resistors; however, modern implementations show that capacitive voltage division is also possible. The output of these comparators is generally fed into a digital encoder, which converts the inputs into a binary value (the collected outputs from the comparators can be thought of as a unary value). Flash converters are extremely fast compared to many other types of ADCs, which usually narrow in on the "correct" answer over a series of stages. Compared to these, a flash converter is also quite simple and, apart from the analog comparators, only requires logic for the final conversion to binary. For best accuracy, often a track-and-hold circuit is inserted in front of the ADC input. This is needed for many ADC ...

Continuous monitoring of blood glucose levels will improve monitoring of diabetic patients and can also aid epidemiological studies for diet other healthcare related issues. This technology allows for non-invasive monitoring of blood sugar potentially ending the need for painful needle sticks among diabetic patients. To enable continuous monitoring, a transparent MEMS relay based analog-to-digital converter will digitize the signal so that it can be stored on a low-power memory cell that will be embedded on a small CMOS chip on the edge of the contact lens.

Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are crucial blocks which form the interface between the physical world and the digital domain. ADCs are indispensable in numerous applications such as wireless sensor networks (WSNs), wireless/wireline communication receivers and data acquisition systems. To achieve long-term, autonomous operation for WSNs, the nodes are powered by harvesting energy from ambient sources such as solar energy, vibrational energy etc. Since the signal frequencies in these distributed WSNs are often low, ultra-low-power ADCs with low sampling rates are required. The advent of new wireless standards with ever-increasing data rates and bandwidth necessitates ADCs capable of meeting the demands. Wireless standards such as GSM, GPRS, LTE and WLAN require ADCs with several tens of MS/s speed and moderate resolution (8-10 bits). Since these ADCs are incorporated into battery-powered portable devices such as cellphones and tablets, low power consumption for the ADCs is essential.. The ...

In the introduction, the authors review ultra-high-speed OCT acquisition instruments. Separate paragraphs clarify key parameters of every Fd-OCT system: its sensitivity and roll-off, dynamic range, axial resolution, and imaging speed, with special focus on scan, pixel, and voxel rates. Because the acquisition speed limits available electronics, special consideration is devoted to assessing requirements of analog-to-digital converter (ADC) bit depth on OCT image quality. Interestingly, the authors prove that an effective bit depth above 7 is suitable for OCT imaging.

A fully synchronous longitudinal position (LPOS) detection system is provided for improving the reliability of servo channels in tape systems. The system is based on the interpolation of the servo channel output signal, which is sampled by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) at a fixed sampling rate, using a clock at a nominal frequency, so that interpolated signal samples are obtained at a predetermined fixed rate, independent of tape velocity. This predetermined fixed rate is defined in terms of samples per unit of length, as opposed to samples per unit of time, which is the measure of the ADC sampling rate. The resolution with which the servo channel signal is obtained at the interpolator output is thus determined by the step interpolation distance.

The microphone circuit is designed to give us a range of input voltage that we can use to correspond to numerical values in the Analog-to-Digital converter on the microcontroller. The schematic for this circuit is located in Appendix B. We first take the output from the microphone and use a 100nF capacitor as a DC block, so that we remove any DC noise from the signal. We then We then use a voltage divider to add our own DC signal to create a baseline for our sound. Using a 5.1k resistor and a 10k resistor, we get a baseline of about 1.7V, which is added to the AC component from the microphone input. This will be important later in the circuit. From this voltage divider, we input the signal to a non-inverting op-amp gain circuit. The gain of the system is 101, as we can see from the equation in the Flex Sensor section. The added capacitor helps to add a small amount of filtration to the signal, which is simply to denoise the circuit and ensure that we have less variation based on the surrounding ...

Analog-Digital Interface - 1991 | ENTROPY CIRCUS - THE TL;DR YEARS  Analog-Digital Interface - 1991 | ENTROPY CIRCUS - THE TL;DR YEARS
Two bands that I first heard in this year, Front 242 and Big Black, used drum machines in aggressive manners, quite unlike either acid house or techno, which were popular at the time. Also, the combination of unapologetically electronic drum sounds with guitars in Big Black was instructive as well as convenient to someone who had neither the space nor inclination to play drums.. Of course these two bands werent the only influences on me when I was adopting this technology. I already knew The Sisters of Mercy and Yello, but I also remember being intrigued by, of all things Killer by Adamski. In the combination of these things I could feel the seeds for a new kind of music.. My first attempt to distill this sound was in the cyber-space-pop anthem Set Phasers to Stun, which was remarkably embarassing but highly ambitious. Being able to record four tracks of samples as well as a vocal and a guitar track expanded the sound vastly. Unfortunately my lyrical and songwriting skills didnt match my ...

Using Fischertechnik Sensors with the VEX Cortex - ROBOTC API Guide  Using Fischertechnik Sensors with the VEX Cortex - ROBOTC API Guide
With the sensor properly connected, configuring it in ROBOTC is no more difficult than any of the official VEX sensors. In the Motors and Sensors Setup, on the VEX 2.0 Analog Sensors 1-8 tab, give the sensor a name and choose from Potentiometer, Light Sensor, or Line Follower for the sensor type. Any of these three types will work, as they are set up to return the raw A-to-D (Analog-to-Digital) values from the sensor. The Gyro and Accelerometer sensor types perform additional calculations on the raw sensor data, making them inappropriate choices for a basic analog sensor like the photoresistor. The VEX Light Sensor is the most similar to the Fischertechnik photoresistor, so its the logical choice ...

STMicroelectronics new L6671 Rotational Accelerometer System combines a MEMS capacitive rotational accelerometer plus an interface chip that integrates analog-to-digital conversion, filtering and interface functions in a single SO-24 package. The L6671 provides a digital output through a 3.3V (5V tolerant) three-wire serial bus and achieves a signal bandwidth of 800Hz, sensitivity of 2.5rad/s,sum,, a full scale sensitivity of 200rad/s,sum, and a signal-to-noise ratio of 37dB over 30-800Hz. Through the serial bus it is also possible to program device characteristics including gain, offset, filter performance and phase delay.. Inside the device, movement about the rotational axis - the axis orthogonal to the package - causes a displacement of a structure inside the MEMS sensor thus producing a capacitive change. These changes in capacitance are converted by the interface chip into a digital output for direct connection to a microprocessor. Capacitance changes as small as 0.05fF (0.05femtoFarad = ...

This survey was distributed to the 123 ARL member libraries in February 2006. Sixty-eight libraries (55%) responded to the survey, of which all but two (97%) reported having engaged in digitization activities. Only one respondent reported having begun digitization activities prior to 1992; five other pioneers followed in 1992. From 1994 through 1998 there was a steady increase in the number of libraries beginning digital initiatives; 30 joined the pioneers at the rate of three to six a year. There was a spike of activity at the turn of the millennium that reached a high in 2000, when nine libraries began digital projects. Subsequently, new start-ups have slowed, with only an additional one to five libraries beginning digitization activities each year ...

Sensors | Free Full-Text | Pre-Processing of Point-Data from Contact and Optical 3D Digitization Sensors  Sensors | Free Full-Text | Pre-Processing of Point-Data from Contact and Optical 3D Digitization Sensors
Contemporary 3D digitization systems employed by reverse engineering (RE) feature ever-growing scanning speeds with the ability to generate large quantity of points in a unit of time. Although advantageous for the quality and efficiency of RE modelling, the huge number of point datas can turn into a serious practical problem, later on, when the CAD model is generated. In addition, 3D digitization processes are very often plagued by measuring errors, which can be attributed to the very nature of measuring systems, various characteristics of the digitized objects and subjective errors by the operator, which also contribute to problems in the CAD model generation process. This paper presents an integral system for the pre-processing of point data, i.e., filtering, smoothing and reduction, based on a cross-sectional RE approach. In the course of the proposed system development, major emphasis was placed on the module for point data reduction, which was designed according to a novel approach with integrated

Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) Arduino Using the arduino we can measure analog voltages using the 6 Inputs ADC. The analog voltage between 0 and 5 V is converted into a 10bit digital number, from 0 to 1023. this can be used to read a value from a sensor, eg a temperature sensor such as the [slime_mold_culture.jpg TMP36], a potentiometer or from the electrodes. Sound Card - Line In If the potentials we want to measure are mostly changes/modulations in voltages, we can also use the analog-to-digital converter from the sound card. Although that means we cannot measure static voltages, but only fast changes changes, frequencies above ~ 1hz. The sound card is a very fast and precise ADC (single if mono, or double for stereo), sampling at 44khz or up to 96khz and 24 bit resolution. Amplification If the signals are to low, such as µV in the example of potentials in plants, we need to amplify the signal and make sure we do not have too much noise or other garbage in our signals.

Analog data were analyzed off-line after analog-to-digital conversion at 300 samples per second per channel. The principles of the software for data acquisition and time-variant spectral analysis have been escribed elsewhere.15 16 17 Time-variant spectral analysis of heart period variability represents a development of usual autoregressive power spectral analysis. It is based on a recursive least-squares-method algorithm, which makes the autoregressive identification procedure suitable to update the coefficients of the model every new beat. Therefore, power spectral analysis can be performed on a beat-by-beat basis, permitting the evaluation of the changes in the spectral components during unstable conditions like transient ischemia15 and syncopal events.17 The forgetting factor ω weighs the prediction error terms exponentially, thus permitting focus on the most recent data out of the window of interest. This latter is defined by ω, according to the formula n=1/(1−ω), where n=number of ...

The preceding experiments at various temperatures (range of 23-30°C) showed that, under the given conditions, slices from animals older than 1 year were best maintained at this temperature, the quality criterion being the level of astrocytic membrane potentials at break-in, in addition to the visual appearance of the slices. Pipette resistance was 3-6 MΩ when filled with the following saline (in mm): 100 K-gluconate, 50 KCl, 5 NaCl, 0.5 CaCl2, 5 EGTA, 25 HEPES, 2 Mg-ATP, and 0.3 GTP. Electrophysiological signals were acquired using an EPC-8 amplifier (List), a 16-bit analog-to-digital board (ITC-16; HEKA Elektronik), and the software TIDA 4.11 (HEKA Elektronik). The signals were sampled at a rate of 10 kHz and filtered at 3 kHz. Liquid junction potentials were not ...

Converter Basics - KTeller  Converter Basics - KTeller
The purpose of any catalytic converter is to reduce harmful emissions from the exhaust of a "properly tuned" combustion engine. It accomplishes this through a combination of heat and a precious metal catalyst that causes the harmful emissions to either oxidize or reduce to safe elements in the exhaust flow. If the engine is out of tune and not calibrated to OEM specs, the catalytic converters efficiency is greatly diminished and could lead to a converter failure. The precious metal catalyst is bound to an extruded ceramic honeycomb substrate. The ceramic has hundreds of flow channels that allow the exhaust gasses to come in contact with a maximum amount of surface area where the catalyst reaction takes place. The catalyst must come in direct contact with the exhaust gasses for the reaction to take place.. If the ceramic inside your converter becomes clogged or coated with carbon, lead or oil, then the converters efficiency is greatly reduced.. There are three basic types of automotive ...

Dr. Satoshi Yamaguchi Profile  Dr. Satoshi Yamaguchi Profile
To obtain four tomograms with four different photon energy ranges simultaneously, we have developed a quad-energy Xray photon counter with a cadmium telluride (CdTe) detector and four sets of comparators and frequency-voltage converters (FVCs). X-ray photons are detected using the CdTe detector, and the event pulses from a shaping amplifier are sent to four comparators simultaneously to regulate four threshold energies of 20, 35, 50 and 65 keV. Using this counter, the energy ranges are 20-100, 35-100, 50-100 and 65-100 keV; the maximum energy corresponds to the tube voltage. Xray photons in the four ranges are counted using the comparators, and the logical pulses from the comparators are input to the FVCs. The outputs from the four FVCs are input to a personal computer through an analog-digital converter (ADC) to carry out quad-energy imaging. To observe contrast variations with changes in the threshold energy, we performed spectral computed tomography utilizing the quad-energy photon counter at ...

Purpose: To develop a robust and real-time surface reconstruction method on point clouds captured from a 3D surface photogrammetry system. Methods: The authors have developed a robust and fast surface reconstruction method on point clouds acquired by the photogrammetry system, without explicitly solving the partial differential equation required by a typical variational approach. Taking advantage of the overcomplete nature of the acquired point clouds, their method solves and propagates a sparse linear relationship from the point cloud manifold to the surface manifold, assuming both manifolds share similar local geometry. With relatively consistent point cloud acquisitions, the authors propose a sparse regression (SR) model to directly approximate the target point cloud as a sparse linear combination from the training set, assuming that the point correspondences built by the iterative closest point (ICP) is reasonably accurate and have residual errors following a Gaussian distribution.

Open Photogrammetry | Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering | Western Michigan University  Open Photogrammetry | Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering | Western Michigan University
Photogrammetric techniques have been used for measuring the important physical quantities in both ground and flight testing including aeroelastic deformation, attitude, position, shape and dynamics of objects such as wind tunnel models, flight vehicles, rotating blades and large space structures. The distinct advantage of photogrammetric measurement is that it is a non-contact, global measurement technique. Although the general principles of photogrammetry are well known particularly in topographic and aerial survey, photogrammetric techniques require special adaptation of aerospace applications. This review provides a comprehensive and systematic summary of photogrammetric techniques for aerospace applications based on diverse sources. It is useful mainly for aerospace engineers who want to use photogrammetric techniques, but also gives a general introduction for photogrammetrists and computer vision scientists to new applications..
