The Movable Airport

"Describes best practices and specific design considerations and presents decision-making frameworks for implementing passenger conveyance systems. Passenger conveyance components include escalators, elevators, moving walkways, and passenger assist vehicles/carts. Automated People Mover systems (the subject of ACRP Reports 37 and 37A), personal rapid transit systems, and shuttle bus systems are not covered in the Guidebook. In addition to the Guidebook, ACRP Report 67 also includes a comprehensive database along with a Decision-Support Tool for planning, designing, and evaluating passenger conveyance systems at airports as a function of specific airport design and operating parameters. This database allows project planners to examine how passenger conveyance components operate as a system throughout different areas within the airport environment."--Foreword.

Help Elmo and Big Bird on their first trip to the airport in Sesame Street's Elmo on the Move: At the Airport! Elmo and Big Bird are getting ready to fly for the first time! Can they make it through security and to their plane in time? In this entertaining activity book—with the help of Elmo, Big Bird, Bert, Ernie, and more of your favorite Sesame Street characters—your child will learn about how to pack, how to get through security, how to board an airplane, and more! Accompanying the silliness of Elmo and Big Bird navigating their way through the airport, each colorful, illustrated page contains a fun, creative activity to help your child both learn about the airport and encourage skills such as creative thinking and problem-solving with puzzles, mazes, coloring pages, and more! Airports are busy, large, and complicated. This scene can be intimidating for young children, especially if they aren’t prepared. But with Sesame Street's Elmo on the Move: At the Airport, your child will be not only be prepared to handle the hustle and bustle of the airport, but also appreciate the wonder of traveling to new places!

New digital image processing and recognition methods, implementation techniques and advanced applications (television, remote sensing, biomedicine, traffic, inspection, robotics, etc.) are presented in this volume. Novel approaches (i.e. digital filters, source coding, neural networks etc.) for solving 2-D and 3-D problems are described. Many papers focus on the motion estimation and tracking recognition of moving objects. The increasingly important field of Cultural Heritage is also covered. Some papers are more theoretical or of review nature, while others contain new implementations and applications. Generally the book presents - for the above outlined area - the state of the art (theory, implementation, applications) with future trends. This book will be of interest not only to researchers, professors and students in university departments of engineering, communications, computers and automatic control, but also to engineers and managers of industries concerned with computer vision, manufacturing, automation, robotics and quality control.
