JATAYU: A Stereo Vision–Based UAV for Autonomous Navigation and Human Following in GPS-Denied Environments
Abstract: Traditional unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems primarily rely on Global Positioning System (GPS)-based navigation and conventional computer vision techniques. However, these approaches face significant challenges in GPS-denied environments, such as dense urban areas, indoor spaces, and disaster-affected regions where GPS signals may be weak, unavailable, or unreliable. In addition, limitations in real-time processing, object detection accuracy, and environmental perception can reduce UAV effectiveness in dynamic and unpredictable situations. This paper …

A short review on scenario of Type 1 diabetes in Australia
Abstract: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is caused by an autoimmune attack on pancreatic beta cells that leads to insulin deficiency. The incidence of T1D in Australia has doubled over the past 20 years. T1D treatment focuses on physiological insulin replacement, aiming for near-normal blood glucose levels. Morbidity and mortality result in hypoglycemia in T1D. Better results can be achieved by following some of the new technologies which includes insulin pumps, continuous …
