With an increase in the population of older adults, the number of cases with dementia also increases. People living with dementia (PLwD) exhibit various behavioral and psychological experiences; agitation and aggression being the most common. Aggressive patients with dementia can harm themselves, other patients and the staff. In the past, researchers have used actigraphy to detect incidences of agitation...
The Internet of Things is one of the trending technologies wherein connecting any device to the Internet and control power to any appliance and in addition possess capability of connecting those appliances to each other in creating a network. In this work, a WiFi enabled micro-controller is interfaced with few sensors like ADXL335, a 3-axis accelerometer for sensing tilt of the object, motion, vibration...
Cell counting has been extensively investigated over the years since it is a critical process for monitoring in-vitro experiments. It provides important information about cell health (e.g. viability, proliferation), and is a fundamental prerequisite during cell-based assays and for assessing data intercomparability. Although sophisticated automated devices are replacing the most dated manual counters,...
Paper proposes a kind of multiple environmental parameters monitoring system for granary that is based on ZigBee network and takes ARM controller as core. With regard to hardware, monitoring circuits for temperature, humidity, CO2 concentration and grain water content are designed. With regard to control program, fuzzy intelligent algorithm is designed and transplanted to ARM controller. The test...
The diagnostic information and the prescription of any health discrepancies are generated by checking certain parameters with an expert verified medical database. The health parameters are taken as input via sensors or through the keyboard. The microcontroller based intelligent system is designed with the help of medical data base.
The questions connected with the use of the modern element base in the development of some types of monitoring and monitoring systems for large-scale objects are considered.
As the number of devices (things) connected to the Internet (Internet of things: IoT) is growing, achieving robust security and privacy (S&P) is becoming increasingly challenging. With the heavy use of medical things (MT), the S&P in the medical domain poses a serious issue that continues to grow. Due to the criticality and sensitivity of the data in the healthcare domain, ensuring...
Under this research, the multi-sensory feedback system has been developed utilizing commercially available MEMS based and miniaturized sensors for building automation systems. This system consist of non-contact infrared thermal array sensor based occupancy identification / localization system and self-floor locations categorization system with an environmental monitoring system. Further, it has smart...
Smart farming is seen to be the future of agriculture as it produces higher quality of crops by making farms more intelligent in sensing its controlling parameters. Analyzing massive amount of data can be done by accessing and connecting various devices with the help of Internet of Things (IoT). However, it is not enough to have an Internet support and self-updating readings from the sensors but also...
The propagation of the S0 Lamb mode in AlN membrane combined with continuous and structured SiO2 thin films is theoretically studied with respect of the materials geometrical parameters and electrical boundaries conditions. A comparison is made in terms of the phase velocity, electromechanical coupling coefficient and temperature coefficients of frequency (TCF) between the studied structures. The...
Air and Water are the most important resources of the planet that we use daily for sustaining life. Air quality affects all living creatures, from trees and plants to animals and people. Air quality, especially in the trend of more industrialized cities and with a rapid growing population of cars, is degrading. Continuous monitoring allows the national administrations to take measures in order to...
The “smart” farming tries to attract Filipinos to be involved in agriculture by opening a window on how the old-aged practice of farming integrates the application of modern technologies. Catalyzing a device embedded with sensor technologies such as the soil moisture sensor that can identify the water volume content of soil which when incorporated in the irrigation management strategy may result in...
This article presents the design and develop of a weather station for educational purposes, which can be monitored continuously under different kinds of climatological changes and works autonomously to the energy network. The proposal of this design is based mainly on the measurement of temperature, humidity, wind, UV radiation and rain parameters using low cost commercial sensors compatible with...
This paper presents a water quality monitoring system using low power hardware based in the Internet of Things. Six sensor nodes for water quality monitoring in pisciculture are installed in three region of the Peruvian amazon. The sensor node is a modular hardware composed by control, communication and sensor module that measure parameters such as pH, conductivity and temperature. All data information...
The wide construct of “biotech” or “biotechnology” encompasses a large vary of procedures for modifying living organisms consistent with human functions, going back to domestication of animals, cultivation of the plants, and “improvements” to those through breeding programs that use artificial choice and conjugation. Fashionable usage additionally includes gene-splicing yet as cell and tissue culture...
The Internet of Things (IoT) has recently become a dominating technology which allows different "things" to communicate through the Internet and understand each other. IoT uses Artificial Intelligence techniques to process data gathered by different sensors and act accordingly. The world is now moving towards employing IoT in different disciplines such as manufacturing, agriculture, education,...
The coordination of resources offered by multiple cloud providers to the end users aims to improve the Quality of Service. However, such systems exhibit a higher complexity and heterogeneity, which need to be handled correctly. In a large network of sensors provided by an Intercloud, the role of the monitoring processes is to identify existing issues and further report them for reconfiguration. Faulty...
This paper details the process of designing, testing and developing an integrated sensors kit for recording a range of environmental parameters within a newly developed transportation unit called FreshBox. It has been designed to extend product shelf life as well as other improvements on conventional food storage and transportation. The sensors kit is transported within the FreshBox container and...
