A Review on Augmented Reality for Virtual Heritage System

Abstract: Augmented reality is one of the emerging technologies to reconstruct the historical building and monument in the previous era, where the user experiences with the real environment or virtual scene. In education, Virtual Heritage becomes as a platform of learning, motivating and understanding of certain events and historical elements for the students and researchers. The significance of reconstruction of digital culture heritage are to preserve, protect and interpret of our cultural and history. In recent year, there are a number of significant researches and techniques that have been developed, which is focusing on virtual restitution of historical sites. This paper will present an overview on augmented reality in Virtual Heritage system and also consists with the explanation of techniques to reconstruct the historical sites.

An improved stator flux estimation in steady state operation for direct torque control of induction machines

Abstract: The paper presents an improved stator flux estimation technique based on a voltage model with some form of low pass filtering. In voltage model-based stator flux estimation, a low-pass (LP) filter is normally used instead of a pure integrator to avoid the integration drift problem due to DC offset, noise or measurement error present in the back electromotive force (EMF). In steady state condition, the LP filter estimator will degrade the performance and efficiency of the direct torque control (DTC) drive system since it introduces magnitude and phase errors, thus resulting in an incorrect voltage vector selection. The stator flux steady state error between the LP filter and a pure integrator estimator techniques is derived and its effect on the steady state DTC drive performance is analyzed. A simple method is proposed to compensate for this error which results in a significant improvement in the steady state drive performances. Simulation based on this technique is given and it is verified by experimental results.
