Recycling is a widely adopted practice that can reduce waste in landfills and increase profits for companies, corporations, and universities, such as Clemson, that sell recyclable materials. For these materials to be sold at a competitive price, however, they must be uncontaminated. This is a considerable barrier for Clemson University because users’ knowledge and experience with recycling do not align with Clemson University’s expected recycling practices. In an effort to bridge this gap, we followed human-centered design practices to generate and test prototypes of new system signage. We found that users were more accurate and confident in their sorting behavior when interacting with the new signage. Users also perceived the new signage as more usable than the old signage. In addition to these findings, the results of this research include a user testing methodology and experimental protocol that can be implemented in other contexts where large populations sort waste.

Abstract ARIES (Autonomous Robotic Inspection Experimental System) is a program for the Department of Energy (DOE) that was charged with the mission of surveying and inspecting drums containing low-level radioactive waste stored in warehouses at DOE facilities. This paper reports on the final development of the ARIES project, and focuses on the mechanical design and analysis of three mechanisms that position a camera and sensor package that sits atop a Cybermotion K3A mobile robotic platform. The ARIES project was executed through a joint effort of three parties: University of South Carolina (USC), Clemson University, and Cybermotion, Inc., of Salem, Virginia. The goal of the project was to develop an autonomous mobile robot that positions a data acquisition package (DAP) which surveys drums containing hazardous materials in Department of Energy (DOE) warehouses. The unique mechanical design of the positioning system is comprised of three distinct components: a lift mechanism, a fourbar mechanism, and a camera panning mechanism. The components are integrated in a manner that allows the DAP to be positioned from 0 to 16 feet off the ground while the robot maneuvers through aisles of drums in a warehouse. The three mechanisms, and the integration thereof, are reported in this paper.

In September 1999, royal ferns (Osmunda regalis L.) at a South Carolina wholesale nursery were found to be infected by foliar nematodes. Lesions were brown, vein-limited, and often fan shaped. As severity increased, affected leaflets became totally necrotic. Nematodes were extracted by excising and dicing symptomatic leaf sections and placing them in water for up to 24 h. Ten adult nematodes from each of two fern plants were examined microscopically and determined to be Aphelenchoides fragariae (Ritzema Bos) Christie. This is the first report of this nematode infecting royal fern. In August 1996, leaves from several cultivars of Hosta spp. with yellow to tan, vein-limited lesions were submitted from The South Carolina Botanical Garden (Clemson, SC) to the Clemson University Plant Problem Clinic for diagnosis. Nematodes were extracted and examined as described above and identified as A. fragariae. This is the first report of this nematode infecting Hosta spp. in South Carolina. Since 1996, foliar nematodes have been recovered from hostas at several wholesale nurseries in South Carolina. Aphelenchoides spp. also have been detected previously in commercially produced ornamental plants in South Carolina, including a Begonia sp. in 1988; Polygonum bistorta L. ‘Super-bum’ (snakeweed) in 1997; and a Polystichum sp. (holly fern) in 1997. All plants exhibited angular or vein-limited, necrotic lesions typical of foliar nematode infections.
