At construction sites, temporary facilities have caused continuous collapse accidents, causing damage to human life. If the concrete placing height is high and the worker is pushed into one place at the time of placing, the working load may be exceed...
This report describes a new crank arm-based force platform designed to evaluate the three-dimensional force applied to the pedals by cyclists in real conditions. The force platform was designed to be fitted on a conventional competition bicycle crank...
A very interesting and useful complement to classical cash-registers is presented in this paper, coming up with a real-time auto-counting solution for the money inside a cash drawer. The system allows knowing not only the total amount of money but al...
This paper presents a measurement system intended to monitor the usage of walker assistive devices. The goal is to guide the user in the correct use of the device in order to prevent risky situations and maximize comfort. Two risk indicators are defi...
In this paper, we reveal a concept of low-profile Split Ring Resonator loaded metamaterial inspired antenna for Bluetooth/WiFi/WLAN/WiMAX communication systems. The antenna’s overall dimensions are 30 × 31 mm2 where two metamaterial unit cells are pl...
The individual monitoring of cross-country skiers’ technique-related parameters is crucial to identifying possible athlete-individual deficits that need to be corrected in order to optimize the athlete’s performance in competition. To be able to reco...
Bluetooth low energy beacons are active transmitters that send a radio signal at set intervals. Most beacons are powered by small batteries. The problem with systems based on such devices is the need to periodically replace the chemical cells. This i...
Harvesting energy for IoT nodes in places that are permanently poorly lit is important, as many such places exist in buildings and other locations. The need for energy-autonomous devices working in such environments has so far received little attenti...
This paper introduces a new quadruped spider robot platform specializing in environmental reconnaissance and mapping. The robot measures 180 mm × 180 mm × 95 mm and weighs 385 g, including the battery, providing a compact yet capable plat...
