Video production is one of the most dominant industries in the 21st century, and research into the automation of tasks associated with it has drastically increased. The production of videos take place in three stages: pre-production, production, and post-production. These three stages consist of script writing, scheduling, logistics, and other administration work. There are commercial products to automate these individual tasks. Incorporating all these software into video production can be expensive and difficult to manage. This study proposes the “Assist” software to handle all processes in video production. It has resulted in a product that covers the three main stages featuring scripts, storyboards, inventory management, production progress tracking and management, and rendering. The mentioned features were designed and developed using decision tree algorithm, PyQt5, general decimation algorithm, mesh simplification algorithm, and multi-variable regression.

Computer-Vision Enabled Waste Management System for Green Environment

Waste management has become a critical requirement to maintain a green environment in Sri Lanka as well as other countries. Town councils have to regularly collect different types of wastes to clean cities/towns. Hence managing the waste of the cities is a challenging task. However, most of the urban councils currently use a manual approach to managing waste. However, it results in many difficulties for the people and cleaning staff who involve in the process by following strict guidelines. Issues due to waste contamination, no proper information management of waste collection, and no punctuality in removing waste from the garbage bins are some of the significant issues arising from the manual process. Due to the drawbacks of the manual approach, social issues, environmental issues, health issues can occur easily. This paper proposes a better solution to replace this manual system with an automated system to overcome these issues. Hence, the main objective of this research is to introduce an ICT-based innovative design that can be used to develop an effective waste management system in town councils. In the proposed model, we will introduce a Computer Vision-based smart waste bin system with real-time monitoring that incorporates various technologies such as computer vision, sensor-based IoT devices, and geographical information system (GIS) related technologies. Our proposed solution consists of a waste bin system, which is capable of automated waste segregation. Our design facilitates the admin users to expand the waste bin kit by adding more waste categories in a user-friendly manner, making our product adaptive in any environment. At the same time, waste bins can notify the real-time waste status. Our system generates the optimum collection routing path and displays it in a mobile app using those real-time status details. We also demonstrate a lowcost prototype.
