We present a wearable textile sensor system for monitoring muscle activity, leveraging surface pressure changes between the skin and an elastic sport support band. The sensor is based on an 8×16 element fabric resistive pressure sensing matrix of 1cm spatial resolution, which can be read out with 50fps refresh rate. We evaluate the system by monitoring leg muscles during leg workouts in a gym out...
Developers use many software applications to process large amounts of diverse information in their daily work. The information is usually meaningful beyond the context of an application that manages it. However, as different applications function independently, developers have to manually track, correlate and re-find cross-cutting information across separate applications. We refer to this difficulty...
In this article, the authors investigate a new source of information for dietary monitoring: pressure distribution on the surface underneath dining plates. Pressure sensing has been used to consider the weight of the eaten food. The core idea behind their work is that dynamic pressure information can also be used to distinguish between various cutlery-related activities, such as cutting, poking, stirring,...
Momentum wheel is the main execution unit for the attitude control of three-axis stabilized satellite. On the long-life satellites, momentum wheels are often required working stably and reliably for several years or even ten years. It is necessary to evaluate the remaining life of on-orbit satellite momentum wheel. The failure mechanism of momentum wheel is very complex and it is difficult to predict...
The Future Internet will be populated by not just data and devices, but also services. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) approaches are allowing new ways for users and developers to manage, control and benefit from the services that are being made available. However, SOA-based applications are highly dynamic and liable to change significantly at runtime. This justifies the need for monitoring composed...
In this paper a novel system to monitor warehouse with wireless sensor networks is proposed. The system consists of wireless nodes and monitor. Wireless sensor nodes collect temperature and humidity information and send to monitor. Monitor provides GUI for warehouse operators. The design of wireless nodes and monitor are introduced in detail.
A novel approach to Advanced Avionics fault tolerance is proposed that takes inspiration from the intersection of human immune system and nervous system as a method of fault recognition and removal. The human body's defenses-the immune system, the sense of pain, and the healing processes-could serve as a conceptual model for high-confidence systems in advance avionics fault tolerance. In this paper...
This paper firstly inquired the categories of knowledge on dam safety monitoring expert system and the knowledge acquisition process. Secondly, it not only analyzed knowledge representation about dam safety monitoring expert system, that is, factual knowledge, rule knowledge and procedure knowledge, but also established a simple knowledge base based on relational database for dam safety monitoring...
