Integration of large-scale photovoltaic power plants is increasing significantly in many develop and developing countries. Although photovoltaic (PV) plants are renewable and environmental friendly, they can bring negative impact in the form of low frequency oscillation due to the uncertainty of power output and negligible inertia. Hence, battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are becoming an inevitable...
For a long time, color has always played a secondary role both in purely artistic or professional design. Although each creator is deeply aware and convinced that the color in addition to the creation of the moment with the unparalleled importance, the general viewers of the psychological and thoughts of the infectivity, it is not to mention. But these cognition, only to understand the color of the...
The narrative messages of digital media are delivered to the audience through “video,” “voice,” “text,” and other materials. In this article, two issues for the three materials-“video,” “voice,” and “text”- are explored by two experimental methods respectively; two experimental data can also be mutually compared to clarify experimental results. In the first part, the strength comparison of narrative...
The Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is a user interface that helps people with severe physical disabilities to communicate with others or to interact with their surroundings by using their brain waves to control devices. However, almost all conventional studies about stimulus-driven BCI focused on a visual modality. Until recently, there still haven't had useful tools to help blind people who suffer...
Craft has been booming since the cultural and creative industry was considered as a part of National Development Plan in Taiwan with the coming of experience economy. The withered traditional industries are under transforming. To provide personalized experiences, many operators gave courses in which services customers to experience handmade craft. For each craft experience, it is a uniqueness, customization,...
In this paper, we design and implement an intuitive manipulation method for smart home system, called “over-the-Air Manipulation System.” It is used to improve the operation inconvenience of smart home system. We exploit the two components of smart glasses, display screen and camera, to capture the user's control gestures and display the information of smart home appliance. Moreover, the system will...
The present study developed a low-cost, reconfigurable partial discharge signal detection device. The said device was an embedded system that consisted of four different modules, which included a microcontroller, a high speed analog-digital converter, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), and a data memory component. To test the functionality of the partial discharge detection device, this study...
Induction motors have been the major actuators in the manufacturing sector. Because they were prone to suffer premature failures in the field, several health monitoring systems were proposed. To facilitate the development of an effective predictive diagnostic system, it is necessary to understand the dynamic behavior and the electro-mechanical interaction of an induction motor by using computer simulation...
Taking Shanghai city for example to work out a service blueprint, which will meet the charging requirements of the EV users, this design research focuses on the User Experience. Using the internet survey method and then furtherly developed an App named EV charge. EV charge involves four main functions: real - name registration and login system, locating function to the EV charging stations, online...
Motor-driven machines such as water pump, air compressor, and fans are often subject to fatigue failures after long operating hours and cause catastrophic breakdown. These failures are foreshadowed by incipient faults under which the machine is still functioning but with low efficiency. Most frequent failures of the motor-driven machines are the consequence of rolling bearing faults which could be...
To address the demands of more computing power, vendors and researchers had been focusing on increasing the clock rate and including more components in a chip, but these technologies had also led to high energy consumption and overheating problems. When energy saving is considered, the Dynamic Power Management (DPM) technique can change the operating mode of some components in a system. When Non-Volatile...
This paper combines the biomimetic concept and TRIZ to propose an eco-innovative design method. Key words establish the connection between TRIZ innovative principles and bio-cases in the relationship of low-carbon strategy. System optimization strategy is proposed to make the system more low-carbon effect and provide the conceptual suggestion of product design. Case-based corresponding method are...
Along with the development of communication technology, the degree of involvement of location-based service in daily life increases accordingly. Through further combination between mobile devices and micro-location technology, mobile devices can now offer more precise and high-quality services which allow users to obtain required information while moving. The proposed intelligent device-oriented control...
This study reports how senior citizens domesticate their personal mobile devices at the beginning of learning process in an adult education class. The aim of this study was to examine how seniors integrate their mobile devices into their personal education experience, what sort of processes were experienced to render the devices useful and meaningful, and how gender and information literacy influenced...
Here we present the study of the output characteristics of a semiconductor laser diode with a circular ridge waveguide resonator and two directional Y-junction coupler. Spatial soliton wave guiding due to optical nonlinearity was observed. Multi-stages lasing threshold which related to hybrid resonators of soliton waveguide was identified by Light-current (L-I) measurements and spectral analysis of...
We present a fiber Bragg grating sensing system which combined with fiber Bragg grating (FBG) vibration sensors and fiber optic gyroscope (FOG) in a fiber loop to achieve the ability of real time angular velocity measurement and mechanical monitoring. The FBG sensing system is consisted by a fiber ring laser structure which is pumped by an erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA). The FBG which its wavelength...
