Bacteria detection identifies bacteria types in an area or on an object. Traditional methods are time-consuming, but modern techniques are fast and use sensors to sniff the air or emit chemicals. Detection is important for medical, law enforcement, agricultural, and scientific purposes. Sophisticated systems can identify multiple species and their concentrations. Bacteria detection is a […]
Laparoscopy is a more invasive but definitive way to identify cancer and find smaller tumors than CT scans or ultrasounds. It can direct surgeons to remove more or all of the cancerous tissue and evaluate the degree of progression or metastasis of the cancer. It is preferable to larger exploratory surgery and can be replaced […]
A network intrusion detection system (NIDS) is a security software that monitors incoming network traffic for malicious activity, filtering based on predefined rules for cybersecurity threats. It can learn and add new threats quickly, and some types filter based on specific protocols or IP addresses. A bypass switch is included to ensure malicious message filtering, […]
Web camera motion detection uses software to activate a camera based on motion and capture images. It’s often used for security and surveillance. Hardware includes a computer and webcam, and software can be free or purchased. Configuration is simple and can include remote access and messaging. Web camera motion detection is the use of a […]
Motion tracking software captures movements and applies them to a computer, without the need for special suits or trackers. It can be used in various settings, including museums and clubs. It can also stabilize footage and capture inverse dynamics for realistic 3D models. Accuracy is crucial for effective motion capture. Motion tracking software is used […]
Intruder detection is a set of security measures used to protect computer networks from unauthorized access and breaches. Access rights are assigned to authorized employees, and other methods like retinal scans and keystroke monitoring are used to verify identity. Security protocols identify and stop attempts before a breach occurs, and additional security features monitor and […]
Network Behavior Anomaly Detection (NBAD) is a security technique that monitors networks for unusual activity, identifying security threats and terms of use violations. It can address zero-day exploits and alert administrators to take action. It can be customized for different needs and network sizes. Network Behavior Anomaly Detection (NBAD) is a security technique used to […]
Nicotine detection tests can detect nicotine or its metabolite, cotinine, in urine, blood, saliva, and hair samples. Cotinine in urine is the most sensitive detection technique, while hair tests can evaluate long-term tobacco use. Urine tests are commonly used by insurance companies to differentiate between active and passive smokers. Life or health insurance applications often […]
Antibody detection is crucial in medicine for identifying diseases. Enzyme immunosorbent assays (ELISA) detect antibodies and antigens, with indirect sandwich and competitive ELISA techniques used. Commercial kits for detecting tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS are available, but may not be as reliable as sputum smear microscopy. Fluorescent antibody tests are used to detect malaria antibodies, which can […]
OpenCV is a program with modules and scripts for advanced video techniques, including face detection using a webcam. The Haar Cascade module provides limited face detection capabilities, but programmers are working to improve it to recognize specific faces. The system uses common facial attributes to determine if a real face is displayed, but problems arise […]
Serial presence detection (SPD) is a protocol used by computers to automatically configure the memory system during POST. Modern BIOS systems allow users to change settings and improve memory performance, including overclocking. Third-party programs can also alter default SPD information for performance changes. Serial presence detection (SPD) is a protocol used by computers to automatically […]
Intrusion detection detects unauthorized attempts to access a computer network or system. It uses intrusion detection systems (IDS) and has three types: network-based, host-based, and physical. IDS records events and does not prevent intrusions, but some physical methods can prevent entry. Intrusion prevention systems (IPS) take action when suspicious activity occurs and provide a more […]
Anomaly detection identifies data that doesn’t fit a set or schema, indicating a system problem or intrusion. It’s valuable for security and fraud detection in various industries, including finance and science. Automated systems can generate reports and alerts for further action. Anomaly detection is an automated process that identifies data that does not belong to […]
ELISA is a test to determine protein levels in a biological sample. There are two types: indirect ELISA and sandwich ELISA. The ELISA detection step involves adding an enzyme-labeled antibody and a substrate, resulting in a color change. Horseradish peroxidase and alkaline phosphatase are common enzymes used. The selection of enzyme substrate combinations is based […]
Various methods can detect semen, including chemical tests for prostate specific antigens and acid phosphate, microscopic examination, ultraviolet black light, and physical inspection. These methods can be used in forensic investigations or at home to detect infidelity. Semen detection methods can be used as forensic tools to determine a crime or in the home to […]
Insurance fraud can take many forms, including life, property, health, auto, and more. Detecting fraud is primarily the responsibility of insurance agents and companies, who employ underwriters, appraisers, and investigators to double-check claims. The importance of fraud detection is highlighted by the fact that hundreds of billions of dollars are paid each year for fraudulent […]
Fraud can be detected through recommendations, accidental discovery, audits, data mining, and hotlines. Companies use internal and external controls, informal methods, and prevention tactics such as screening employees and adopting a code of ethics to reduce the risk of fraud. The most common method of detecting fraud is through recommendations from people inside or outside […]
Leak detection fluid is used to check for leaks in pressurized systems like gas pipelines. It can be applied by spraying, painting, or sponging and will create foaming bubbles if there is a leak. Professionals use it for safety checks, and it can also be used at home. Gas leaks can be dangerous, and people […]
Speech activity detection (VAD) is a computational method that allows computers to distinguish between human speech and background noise or silence. It is voice activated and works with other applications such as speech coding and recognition, and is beneficial for telecommunications and audio signal processing. VAD reduces false signaling to reduce wasted bandwidth and improves […]
Antigen detection tests identify foreign substances or organisms causing disease in a patient by detecting antigens in body fluids. Rapid antigen detection test kits have made diagnosis more accessible, and effective drugs can be administered once a diagnosis is confirmed. Detection kits are available for various types of bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi. The kits […]
