Technology can positively impact the lives of severely disabled autistic children if used to (a) gather situational awareness data regarding their health, development, and behavior and (b) assist them with learning and day-to-day activities. This paper summarizes student design projects in the Kansas State University (KSU) College of Engineering that are motivated and informed by the needs of severely...
This paper presents a wireless system designed to collect, store and transmit gastric electrical activity, known as slow waves. The system is composed of a miniaturized front-end module that can record from up to 32 locations of the stomach, and a back-end module. The front-end could either store the recorded slow waves into a flash memory, or wirelessly transmit them to the back-end connected to...
In this work, clinical results of a wireless recording system for intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring during a spine correction surgery are reported. The wireless modules connecting directly to the subdermal needle electrodes transmit the waveforms detected in certain muscle areas to a computer via telemetry for real-time display, analysis and storage. Sufficient gain, bandwidth and digitalization...
In these days, wireless AP's signal is all around us. Multiple APs are set up at a big area, enterprise, university, movie theater, etc. and small area, such as a private house. So wireless APs are not special to us. However, the APs with several tools that can manage multiple APs are hard to find and also too expensive to the public. To solve this problem, this paper discusses how to install the...
Speech is the most common form of human conversation. It is very essential for communication purpose. Speech recognition technology is considerably increasing and is coming into practice enabling innovative voice driven application. The communication among human computer interaction is called as human computer interface. Speech recognition systems can provide very efficient alternatives for existing...
This paper presents an application for remote control of a mobile robot with XBEE wireless communication. The control of the mobile robot is realized by a PC within a software interface or by using a user mobile remote control. The application is implemented in LabVIEW and can be used for robot control and robot movement tracking.
At present, the wiring harness detection systems require a great number of testing cables, meanwhile, bring a series of problems, such as high cost, poor compatibility and low efficiency. In order to solve above drawbacks, we present a novel system based on the wireless network communication which is used for aircraft wiring harnesses’ conduction test, and describe it from two aspects of hardware...
In this paper, a novel handmade clicker and its analysis software are proposed to support active learning. The proposed clicker can offer not only simple assembling but also low cost, because the proposed clicker consists of only nine circuit components. In the proposed analysis software, student's answers are stored in a teacher's computer by an Excel VBA program. By utilizing the learning results,...

In order to prevent APT attacks, this article studies and analyzes a large number of APT attack cases which have been disclosed, gives an overview of APT attack lifecycle and attack techniques. This paper discusses the purposes of APT attacks and APT attack characteristics...
Human Machine Interface (HMI), referred to as a correlated system of human activities and operation of a specific device, ratifies control mechanism of a targeted machine by execution of certain physical actions. This paper presents an effective design of an Android-based Human Computer Interactive (HCI) system with voice command activation and gesture recognition to control a computer. With a continuous...
Now-a-days wireless technologies are being used more and more. The advancement in wireless technologies offers a good opportunity in lots of areas and one of them we find is printer or printing services. This paper proposes a design of an embedded system which directly prints the data through handheld devices from only traditional local printer in spite of using proprietary wireless printers. With...
Preventive screening examinations of the population are one of the most effective ways to prevent COPD today. In this paper the problem of technical support of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease diagnosis is described. Transmit channel data and testing of technical capabilities of NRF24L01-module for implementation in screening diagnostic system are analyzed. The present measurements agree with...
This study utilizes a simple model for constructing sensor nodes — master controller combinations in the Internet of Things. The model combines hardware and software for embedded systems which measure a predefined set of parameters. The master controller manages several sensor nodes, collects data from them and provides data for clients. The paper introduces a proof-of-concept implementation based...
In this paper, a kind of wall-climbing robot based on wireless communication among multi-processors is introduced. Base on multi-processors controlled system, mechanical structure, electronic hardware construction and software designing are proposed respectively. Positioning and path planning are illustrated in detail. Furthermore, communicate protocol is proposed for data exchange through wireless...
A fully implantable multi-channel neural prosthesis for epidural stimulation will be demonstrated. The prosthesis features three telemetry-operated independent stimulators providing in total eighteen stimulation channels. The stimulator circuits were implemented in a 0.6-μm CMOS technology. The prosthesis is protected in a hermetically sealed ceramic enclosure and encapsulated in medical grade silicone...

The proliferation of smart mobile devices and their increasing traffic demands has resulted in the density of 802.11/WiFi networks being pushed to the limit. As such, WiFi virtualization has been positioned as a solution to accommodate and improve future communications, with many frameworks, protocols and algorithms being developed for virtualized networks. This work develops an experimental platform...
Partial discharge (PD) is one of the predominant factors to be controlled to ensure reliability and undisrupted functions of power generators, motors, Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) and grid connected power distribution equipment, especially in the future smart grid. The emergence of wireless technology has provided numerous opportunities to optimise remote monitoring and control facilities that can...
Extending input/output (I/O) bus networks over wireless Ethernet is expected to provide an effective way of achieving communication between multiple hosts and I/O devices. However, because connections on wireless Ethernet are lossy and unreliable, retransmission of I/O packets increases transmission latency that exceeds the limits of the I/O bus protocol. In this paper, we propose an Ethernet transport...
Relay selection among available relays is crucial in improving the performance of cooperative relaying. In this paper, we address the relay selection for a multi-relay decode-and-forward (DF) cooperative relaying scheme over channels impaired by bursty impulsive noise in the presence of Rayleigh fading. For this scheme, we propose a novel best relay selection technique which is based on both the channel...
