It is important to provide sightseeing information to foreign people to promote tourism industry. However, in order to provide fresh information or intend for new sightseeing contents, we need to pay for the cost of contents updating and system migration. Therefore, we propose “Self-extending Type Open Data Platform” that can take in the tweet of the tourist automatically. This proposed platform has...
The increase in the amount of program code in electronic control units (ECUs) in vehicles has caused an increase in the number of firmware updates after sales, which stems from bugs in the program. In this situation, automakers are considering introducing over-the-air firmware update technology that has been used in the consumer electronics field. In this paper, we propose incremental update methods...
Process of detailed testing and verification of all automotive embedded software components generates detailed reports about each segment of tested electronic control units (ECU). The very first group of tests in this process is Acceptance tests, and one of the most important tests in this stage of testing and verification is interface check of the software component. The interface check must ensure...
There is a visual novel which is a game combined with visual interaction and novel texts. We have challenged making an EPUB-type visual novel, because we can easily make it. The EPUB format is based on HTML5. In addition, We can get an easy way to make a visual novel with equations. Our visual novel gives us happy math.
Since 2011, we have developed and deployed a standalone Voice-Interactive Digital Signage System to provide useful university information to users at the Nagoya Institute of Technology. This system comprises MMDAgent, a software toolkit to realize voice interaction with 3-D character named "Mei". An important shortcoming is that this system's ability is limited because it lacks a network...
This paper proposes a design of a medication reminder machine, including both the pill and the continuous medical tablet/powder bag reminder modules. The pill module uses MCU with software to control the LED and the buzzer to remind the user according to a specific schedule which has been inputted. The continuous medical tablet/powder bag module uses a MCU with software to control a motor to dispense...
The usage of Software Defined Radio (SDR) even in Consumer Electronics (CE) devices is becoming more and more important because it provides high flexibility and reconfigurability. Although a real-time SDR implementation even of state of the art systems such as LTE-A+ or DVB-T2 using General Purpose Processors (GPPs) is possible, the performance of SDR applications is still an interesting research...
Only flagship models of limited kind of appliances support a talking interface because of the cost incurred by additional hardware/software components. This paper introduces a script language that realizes talking interface with less resources, by utilizing cellphones of the visually impaired.
The computing power of microprocessors has exponentially increased in the past few decades, so the support to compute intensive multimedia applications has increased too. With such improved computing power, memory subsystem deficiency becomes the major barrier to support video decoder on the Digital Signal Processor (DSP). H.264/AVC becomes the next generation of video codec for embedded systems....
Due to the continuously growing possibilities provided by technology and its wider application, today's IT products are becoming more and more complex both from technical and managerial standpoints. Very often, multiple parties are involved in their development. Consequently, the organization of the integration and testing of these products gets increasingly complex. Organisations already encounter...
