Portable Image Based Moon Date Detection and Declaration: System and Algorithm Code Sign

摘要

The Moon is one of the interesting objects in the sky. Over the human life history, this shining object attracts mankind all over the world. Even in some civilization, people worship or coordinate their ethical plan and calendar based on its shape. Nowadays, some researches show over than the moon shape on earth environment which has an effect on the human body as well. The main problem to track the moon is that the moon shape always in the sky is not visible which may leads to lose tracking the shape. Sometimes similar shape for some dates may causes the wrong evaluation for a date. So, knowing and determining the shape as well as date of the moon is always challenging. All these problems which may mix with cloudy nights encourage researchers to make a device to sort the date deceleration. In this research paper, design of the portable Raspberry Pi bases system as the recent development in the embedded system has considered. The designed system has the capability to capture the image. Then, after preprocessing on the image, with the help of the written portable GUI in python, declares the moon phase for the user. Finally, over than system, to perform an effective system, the novel SAZ algorithm proposed which is the extension of HSV and shape detection based on blob algorithm. Then, the algorithm tested on some real image samples. The result shows Raspberry pi and proposed algorithm (SAZ) has the ability to do the moon date declaration.
