Accurate anomaly diagnosis is essential for reducing operation and maintenance (O&M) cost, while improving safety and reliability of large-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems. Although many methods have been proposed, they either require extra sensing devices or suffer from high false alarm rates. In this work, we present a cost-effective hierarchical context-aware method for string-level anomaly...
Enhanced Digital Functionality has captivated nearly every phase of society. The shift is overwhelming: Smart phones, smart TVs and smart cars are just a few examples of the trend. Enhanced digitization has also inspired a key development trend in Electrical Distribution Equipment. In fact, recommended practices to improve electrical safety by design are being developed that include digital features...
This paper presents a smart cage which consists of an automated excrement detection module, a cleaning module, a feeding module, and multiple additional sensors for a dog. In the smart cage, excrement is detected by using image processing methods and is automatically cleaned up by the conveyance. Moreover, the conveyance can also be a treadmill for the dog to exercise, with its built-in and adjustable...
One of the most important areas of the water utilities is the water quality management. This area is responsible of guaranteeing safety in the water supply to the citizens. The strategy to guarantee the safety is based on two principal elements: disinfection and monitoring. Disinfection techniques, such as chlorination, allow to prevent the growing of microorganisms present in the water. Moreover,...
In this paper we have provided public Smart Assistance in Public Transport System. The project is to be implemented for public bus (for ex: PMTs in Pune). It has the entire smart assistance system required for public security and safety. The smart system includes safety for women as well. It has accident detection and monitoring facility. It also has user friendly application for user to track bus...
This paper concludes that traditional fireman uniform has defect on application. In order to improve the coefficient fireman's personal safety, a kind of multi-individual multi-parameter multi-sensor intelligent physical warning system for fireman(IPESF) is proposed. At length, it introduces the structure of system platform and the design of each module. Corresponding software is developed on monitor-display...
Complexity and electrification of automobiles increases steadily, which involves an enhancement of safety-requirements of applied E/E-components, controllers and their connection and interaction in between. As a fundamental safety-relevant standard, the E-Gas monitoring concept has been introduced in the '90s. Recently, a new version of this E-Gas monitoring concept has been published, which includes...
This paper describes the concept of the portable system for monitoring thermal exposure of firemen and other rescues. The system measures, archives and analyses actual external and internal temperatures affecting the monitored person and gives him a warning in case of dangerously increased values. Described is the construction and electrical components of the device, some important tests done in various...
In this paper a new approach for safety monitoring of dangerous gases in the industrial plants is proposed. A single artificial neural network is used for determination of the gas concentrations based on sensor array measurements, performing at the same time compensation of the temperature and humidity influence on the sensor outputs. The obtained results show good accuracy in gas concentration estimation,...
In this paper, it discusses and performs lab experiment of detecting LQI value from ZigBee wireless sensor network and from the variation of LQI values to determine is there any intrusion. In closed and no one existence indoor area it has a steady LQI value while it changes when someone intrudes into the area. An intrusion detection system is developed by using the variation in LQI values. After the...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is an emerging technology with a potential to revolutionize the way we sense and transmit the information. The applications are many and look to be limited by our imagination and ingenuity. Some of the important applications are process monitoring, military surveillance, structural health monitoring, environment monitoring, health monitoring, Nuclear, Biological and...
Previously Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) was not the preferred choice for offshore monitoring in the oil and gas sector for many reasons such as reliability and security concern. Today, much has changed. Advances in reliability, security, and affordability within the constraints of frequency allocation now enable organizations to take full advantage of WSN for challenging industrial environments...
The ARM Cortex-A8 vehicle terminal kernel with various information acquisition modules was developed in this paper, many kinds of sensors such as video camera and infrared temperature tester were used to collect information, and these information were fused to build embedded information collection system of Android. So we can monitor the driver's bad behaviors such as fatigue driving, talking on the...
Based on the observed temperature information of arch dam, the mathematical and mechanical methods are combined usually with dam engineering theory to capture in real time and evaluate in time the developing status and space-time distribution of arch dam temperature, and implement the back analysis for temperature control measures. It is an important step for dam construction and safe operation. Some...
