This paper presents a wireless, low power and low cost wearable for real time monitoring and analysis of bowling action in the game of cricket. Utilizing flex sensor as an enabling component, the device performs continuous measurement of arm angle within one degree accuracy. The wearable also utilizes a force sensor enabling it to detect the time instant at which the ball is released. The device wirelessly...
IEEE/EMBS would like to thank all the participants who contributed to the competition. The winner will be announced during the closing ceremony on 18 January 2013. The list of finalists follows: Bikas K Arya, Dennis Robert, Sangeeta Das Bhattacharya, Jayanta Mukhopadhyay for "A Framework for Web based Geographical Information System for countrywide Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring;" Abhishek...
This paper deals with the development of a low cost self-sensing Piezeoresistive Microcantilever Biosensor to detect human stress using salivary alpha amylase activity. The salivary alpha amylase enzyme will immobilize on to the Piezeoresistive Microcantilever biosensor to detect activity during the enzyme responses. When the Microcantilever beam deflects it caused the stress change within the microcantilever...
Accessibility for the blind in an urban space must be studied under real conditions in their daily environment. A new approach for evaluating the impact of environmental conditions on blind pedestrians is the objective measure of stress by the monitoring of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity. Original techniques of data analysis and spatial representation are proposed for the detection of...
A method to fabricate circuits on the cloth, planar fashionable circuit board (P-FCB), is proposed. And its applications such as fabric passive elements, user I/O interface, and the fabric package are introduced. The electrical and the mechanical characteristic analysis of P-FCB and the system integration methodology establishment improve the system performance and productivity. A complete wearable...
A MEMS heart rate monitor has been designed for a three-structural-layer fabrication process such as PolyMUMPs. The device size is just over 400 mum times 400 mum. It uses a movable top plate in order to create a variable capacitance in conjunction with a coil for an inductance in order to create a resonant tank circuit. The circuit resonant frequency changes depending on the deflection of the top...
The real time monitoring and control of resistance spot welds is a problem of critical importance in automotive and many other manufacturing industries. However, till this date, there are no reliable, low-cost, non-destructive techniques for predicting the size and strength of the weld nuggets in real time. This paper investigates the usage of voltage, current, and force data for the above tasks....
