Investigation of a pavement crack-filling robot / by Carnegie Mellon University.Department of Civil Engineering.(CARDINAL)325473; Strategic Highway Research Program (U.S.)(CARDINAL)298325;
Performed under contract no.Includes bibliographical references (pages 103-109).Executive summary -- Introduction -- Sensing pavement cracks -- Representing pavement cracks -- Filling pavement cracks -- Alternative system designs -- Economic analysis -- Introduction -- System architecture -- Sensing hardware -- Representation -- Software implementation for perception and control -- Test scene perception and processing -- Second generation design and field demonstration -- Evaluation of automated crack filling -- Appendixes -- References.This report describes a laboratory prototype designed to identify, map, track, and fill pavement cracks. Video imaging and electronic scanning equipment installed in a van is followed by a rack carrying a hot-air lance, a sealant wand, and a supply trailer. The video sensor identifies potential cracks while the depth sensor verifies actual depth. A map plotter defines the crack length, size, and depth. Using the combination of visual and depth sensing equipment, the cracks located and mapped were filled with an accuracy of better than 1 cm (0.5 in). Approximately 125 million dollars per year is spent by states on crack-filling with labor representing 50 percent of the costs. Assuming a 4-year system life at a cost of 100,000 dollars plus annual maintenance and operating costs of 25,000 dollars per year, potential savings could be as much as 60,000 dollars per unit, per year or 19 percent of costs on a national basis equal to 24 million dollars per year.

A friendly guide to software development : what you should know without being a developer / by Portella, Leticia,Author(local)tlcaut1683817554468503105;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Software is everywhere, but despite being so common and useful, it remains magical and mysterious to many. Still, more and more people are finding themselves working for tech companies, or with an array of software products, services, and tools. This can segregate those who understand tech from those that don't. But it doesn't have to be this way. This book aims to bring these two worlds closer together, allowing people to learn basic concepts of software development in a casual and straight-forward way. Assuming no previous technical knowledge, you'll embark on a journey where you can understand and build a new software project from scratch until it is an advanced product with multiple users. A Friendly Guide to Software Development makes technical concepts broadly available and easy to understand. Imagine moving from a "traditional" company and suddenly finding yourself in one where software is the main product or is a foundational component to it. One is often left to wade through the infinite concepts while still doing their actual jobs. This book closes that gap. In doing so, you'll be able to achieve better communication, which will undoubtedly lead to better working relationships, a better working environment, and ultimately better software. What You'll Learn: *See how a new software project is created *Examine the basics of software development and architecture *Know which questions to ask to avoid potential problems and pitfalls *Start using and building software projects Who This Book Is For: *Those without a traditional technical background people like business and project managers who need to work closely with software developers and teams *People who are interested in building a software system but don't know where to start. *Programmers who want to jump to development but have no experience in the industry and its common concepts.
