Airborne microbes such as bacteria are a threat to public health. To prevent and control such dangerous biological particles, robust and real-time detection systems are necessary. For direct and real-time detection of airborne microbes, samples must be collected and typically re-suspended in liquid prior to detection; however, environmental particles such as dust are also trapped in such samples....
A novel micromachined electrode is designed and fabricated for a BSN-based vital signs monitoring system. Both theoretical calculation and ANSYS simulation show that buckling problem will not occur for the proposed microneedles during insertion process. The BSN-based vital signs routine monitoring system, which comprises of wireless mote, analog amplifier circuit board and SpO2 (Saturation of Arterial...
In this paper, a first prototype of a multifunctional tactile sensor using ionic polymer metal composites (IPMCs) is proposed, designed, and tested. Two IPMC strips are used, one as an actuator and one as a sensor, both positioned in a cantilever configuration; working together they enable the system to detect the presence of a material in contact with it and to measure its stiffness. These sensing...
