In February two new research projects will start within the STC research center: LIFE - Light Field Evaluation System and a prestudy of Detection of Oil Spill in Storm water through online measurement.
LIFE – Light Field Evaluation System
This three year project has the aim to build a light field communication test bed and explore the consequences on processing, distribution and presentation by utilizing a large number of cameras of different types and presenting captured data in different ways. Industrial partners, Ericsson and Axis Communications, will us the project results as input to video standardization works and improving the image quality in video surveillance.

Detection of oil spill in storm water through online measurement (prestudy)
The purpose of this study is to establish a measurement point for continuous reading of oil spill in storm water drains. It would provide information on what level of pollutions that occur in a specific ground drain. The result can be used to explore the possibility of developing a low-cost sensor that makes it economically possible to have multiple measuring points in a complete storm water system to detect oil spill on an early stage.
