The ability of smartphones to facilitate various services like mobile banking, e-commerce and mobile payments has made them part of consumers' lives. Conjoint analysis (CA) is a marketing research approach used to assess how consumers' preferences for products or services develop. The potential applications of CA are numerous in consumer electronics, banking and insurance services, job selection and workplace loyalty, consumer packaged goods, and travel and tourism. Choice-Based Conjoint (CBC) analysis is the most commonly used CA approach in marketing research. The purpose of this study is to utilise CBC analysis to investigate the relative importance of smartphone attributes that influence consumer smartphone preference. An experiment was designed using Sawtooth CBC Software. 326 students attempted the online survey. Utility values were derived by Hierarchical Bayes (HB) estimation and used to explain consumers' smartphone preferences. All the six attributes used for the study were found to significantly influence smartphone preference. Smartphone brand was the most important, followed by the price, camera, RAM, battery life, and storage. This study is one of the first to use Sawtooth CBC analysis to assess consumer smartphone preference based on the six attributes. We provide implications for the development of new smartphones based on attributes.

The smartphone with camera can easily generate an image instead of a scanner. However the document image through a smartphone can have distortions related rotation or perspective. In this paper, we proposed a method to generate the document image in that distortions are reduced from the captured document image through a smartphone. For this, the original document image through a smartphone is preprocessed using the MSER-b technique to reduce the light effect. Then, the text area contour is extracted using the characteristics of the document image. Lastly, rotation or perspective distortions are reduced using the extracted text area contour. For experiments, the proposed method is compared two other products. Through experiments, we show that the distortions within the captured document image through smartphone can be effectively reduced.

Internet of things (IoT) is revolutionizing in the patient-Centered medical monitoring and management by authorizing the Smartphone application and data analysis with medical centers. The network connectivity is basic requirement to collect the observed human beings' health information from Smartphone to monitor the health from IoT medical devices in personal healthcare. The IoT environment built in Smartphone is very effective and does not demand infrastructure. This paper presents the smart phone deployed personal IoT architecture for Non-Invasive ECG Capturing. The adaptable IoT medical device cum Gateway is used for personal healthcare with big data storage on cloud configuration. In this approach, the Smartphone camera based imaging technique used to extract the personal ECG waveform and forward it to the cloud based big data storage connectivity using IoT architecture. Elaborated algorithm allows for efficient ECG registration directly from face image captured from Smartphone or Tablet camera. The profound technique may have an exceptional value in monitoring personal healthcare after adequate enhancements are introduced.

An unattended recording system based on smartphone based image image tracking is rapidly developing. Among the existing products, a system that automatically tracks and rotates the object to be photographed using an infrared signal is very expensive for general users. Therefore, this paper proposes a mobile unattended recording system that enables automatic recording by anyone who uses a smartphone. The system consists of a commercial mobile camera, a servomotor that moves the camera from side to side, a microcontroller to control the motor, and a commercial wireless Bluetooth Earset for video audio input. In this paper, we designed a system that enables unattended recording through image tracking using smartphone.

With the recent increase in the use of disposable products, it is urgently necessary to reduce the use of disposable products and to increase the recycling rate as much as possible in order to prevent environmental damage. In this paper, we introduce , a smartphone application that provides recycling-related information and supports correct separation and discharge. This system automatically recognizes and automatically classifies the type of item, by applying an effective object recognition technique, when the camera points at the item to be discharged. It is more effective and convenient compared to other existing smartphone applications. This system is expected to contribute to environmental protection by increasing the recycling rate in daily life.

Images in the textbooks influence the learning process. Students often see pictures before reading the text and these pictures can enhance the power of imagination of the students. The findings of some researches show that the images in textbooks can increase students' creativity. However, when learning major subjects, reading a textbook or looking at a picture alone may not be enough to understand the topics and completely realize the concepts. Studies show that viewers remember 95% of a message when watching a video than reading a text. If we can combine textbooks and videos, this teaching method is fantastic. The "TEXT + IMAGE + VIDEO (Animation)" concept could be more beneficial than ordinary ones. We tried to give our solution by using machine learning Image Classification. This paper covers the features, approaches and detailed objectives of our project. For now, we have developed the prototype of this project as a web app and it only works when accessed via smartphone. Once you have accessed the web app through your smartphone, the web app asks for access to use the camera. Suppose you bring your smartphone's camera closer to the picture in the textbook. It will then display the video related to the photo below.

High-performance smartphones, equipped with a digital camera and an application software, can render conventional bench-top laboratory instruments mobile at affordable costs. As the smartphone-based devices are portable and wireless, they have wide applications especially in providing point-of-care (POC) tests in resource-constrained areas. We developed a hand-held diagnostic system, Mobile SmartScope, which consists of a small optical unit integrated with a smartphone. The performance of the SmartScope was favorably compared with that of conventional light microscopy in detecting and quantifying red blood cells. We also evaluated the fluorescence detection limit of the SmartScope incorporated with a blue light-emitting diode and appropriate optical filters by using fluorescently labeled microbeads for intensity calibration.

Visible light communication (VLC) is a rapidly growing area of research and applications, due to the potential and predicted high efficiency of bandwidth. One of the key challenges in VLC technology is the choice of devices which are going to be deployed VLC features. Smartphone rationally uses the most widely deployed visible light sensor i.e. image sensor in camera, which could be used to receive the intensity modulated data. Image sensor based VLC system would be the most deployable scenario but initially the capacity was not much attractive compared with photodetector based VLC system. Here, the spatial multiplexing is proposed in MIMO based VLC system to increase the system capacity by utilizing the property of spatial separation of optical light sources in smartphone's camera module. The active pixels of imaging plane act as the multiple receivers which could be able to use on MIMO spatial multiplexing to enhance the system performance.

Digital media technology is gradually developing with the development of convergence quaternary industrial technology and mobile devices. The combination of deep learning and augmented reality can provide more convenient and lively services through the interaction of 3D virtual images with the real world. We combine deep learning-based pose prediction with augmented reality technology. We predict the eight vertices of the bounding box of the object in the image. Using the predicted eight vertices(x,y), eight vertices(x,y,z) of 3D mesh, and the intrinsic parameter of the smartphone camera, we compute the external parameters of the camera through the PnP algorithm. We calculate the distance to the object and the degree of rotation of the object using the external parameter and apply to AR content. Our method provides services in a web environment, making it highly accessible to users and easy to maintain the system. As we provide augmented reality services using consumers' smartphone cameras, we can apply them to various business fields.
