Fully integrated wireless inductive tongue computer interface for disabled people

This work describes a novel fully integrated inductive tongue computer interface for disabled people. The interface consists of an oral unit placed in the mouth, including inductive sensors, related electronics, a system for wireless transmission and a rechargeable battery. The system is activated using an activation unit placed on the tongue, and incorporates 18 inductive sensors, arranged in bot

Catalyst Materials and Catalytic Steam Reforming Reactions in SOFC Anodes

It is expected that fuel cells will play a significant role in a future sustainable energy system. They are energy efficient and fuel can be produced nearly locally. There are no net emissions of greenhouse gases when a renewable fuel such as ethanol, methanol, biogas and hydrogen is used. Fuel cells reached during the latest years various progresses, but the technology is still in the early phase

Rao-Blackwellized Particle Smoothing for Occupancy-Grid Based SLAM Using Low-Cost Sensors

We approach the simultaneous localization and mapping problem by using an ultrasound sensor and wheel encoders on a mobile robot. The measurements are modeled to yield a conditionally linear model for all the map states. Moreover, we implement a Rao-Blackwellized particle smoother (RBPS) for jointly estimating the position of the robot and the map. The method is applied and successfully verified b

NEXT STEP in Cost-based Sustainable Production Development - Cases from different Production Operations

This article discusses the NEXT STEP (beyond Lean production philosophy) and its relation to Sustainable Production Development. One of the most important factors affecting long-term sustainability is the degree to which resource-efficient production can be achieved. From this standpoint, Lean Production is similar to Sustainable Production. The research reported on here suggests there to be no co
