Scale Invariance Feature Transform (SIFT) is quite suitable for image matching because of its invariance to image scaling, rotation and slight changes in illumination or viewpoint. However, due to high computation complexity it's technically challenging to deploy SIFT in real time application situations. To address this problem, we propose CLSIFT, an OpenCL based highly speeded up and performance portable SIFT solution. Important optimization techniques employed in CLSIFT such as: (1) For less global memory traffic, independent logical functions are merged into the same kernel to reuse data. (2) loop buffers are introduced in for data and intermediate results reusing. (3)Task queue used to schedule threads in the same branch to remove branch divergences. (4) Data partition is based on the statics patterns for workload balance among workgroups. (5) Overlap of CPU time and better parallel strategies are used too. With all mentioned efforts, CLSIFT processes lena. jpg at 74.2 FPS and 43.4FPS respectively on NVidia and AMD GPUS, much higher than CPU's nearly 10 FPS and the known fastest SIFTGPU's 39.8 FPS and 13FPS. Moreover in a quantitative comparison approach we analyze those successful strategies beating SIFTGPU, a famous existing GPU implementation. Additionally, we observe and conclude that NVidia GPU achieves better occupancy and performance due to some factors. Finally, we summarize some techniques and empirical guiding principles that may be shared by other applications on GPU.

The paper presents a new approach on haptic interface control for NAO robotic hand. The haptic teleoperation of NAO robot hand raises some issues, mapping the haptic device dynamic being the most important. The mapping was achieved through Neural Network by determining a dynamic gain of robot haptic feedback. The results lead to the achievement of the haptic intelligent interfaces for the NAO robot hand control which can be integrated into an innovative haptic robot control system.

Magnetic field sensors based on polycrystalline La0.83Sr 0.17MnO3 films were used to measure the magnetic field distribution and disturbances during the operation of an electromagnetic launcher. Hollow cylinders made from dural aluminum and iron were used as propelled objects inside the solenoidal coil. The obtained results revealed the ability of manganite sensors to rapidly measure changing high magnetic fields of arbitrary waveforms.
