Opening And Closing

The project is about smart way of collecting and disposing garbage. A system is designed by automatic opening and closing of the lid when the sensor senses the hand motion. The level of the wastes is measured using sonar sensor and the smell from the waste is detected using gas sensor. In order to avoid the smell, sprayer is placed inside the dustbin which is activated when the signal is sent. There is a motor attached to the lid is used to compress the garbage for further dumping. Once the bin is fully filled the lid is closed automatically and a message is send through GSM. The status of the bin will be displayed as a message outside the bin using LCD display. The problem of overflowing of garbage and the smell will be avoided leading to a good hygienic environment.

The Status

Sand production is a serious problem during the exploitation of oil wells, and people put forward the concept of limited sand to alleviate this problem. Oil production with limited sanding is an efficient mod of production. In order to complete limited sand exploitation, improve the productivity of oil wells, a real-time sand monitoring system is needed to monitor the status of wells production. Besides acoustic sand monitoring and erosion-based sand monitoring, a vibration-based sand monitoring system with two installing styles is proposed recently. The paper points out the relationships between sand monitoring signals collected under intrusive and non-intrusive installing styles and sanding parameters, which lays a good foundation for further study and actual sand monitoring in oil field.

The status of mental health and mood of human beings are well comprehensible by careful observation of movements of different body parts. Eye being the most prominent body part, analysis of different eye parameters such as blink, gaze, opening and closing rate provides important clues on mood status as well as mental health conditions. The present work can be viewed from a statistical and machine learning perspective that utilizes eye blink information to study the mental health status of a person. By using appropriate image processing techniques eye blinks of different subjects were collected through an experimental setup. The setup contained a recording environment where each participant was required to watch two videos of opposite emotions, i.e., joy and sad during different time settings. From the recorded videos of each participant, eye blinks were extracted and investigated. On analyzing the blink rates thoroughly, using statistical and machine learning means we observed; 1) an increase in number of eye blinks when the mood of a participant swings from sad to joy and 2) a significantly smaller number of blinks in depressed participants than the normal participants while in sad mood.

Simple Measuring

In rehabilitating hemiplegic patients, purposeful movements such as the opening and closing of hands are reported to be more effective than passive movement with an instrument. The authors of this chapter used surface electromyogram (surface EMG) signals as a way to convey the patient’s conscious ability to open and close their hands. The muscles in the forearm contract when the hand is closed or opened, which creates a simple signal that is comparatively easy to measure with surface EMG, a simple measuring device. The action potentials of the muscles involved in the opening-and-closing motions of hands were measured from several points in the forearm when those muscles contracted, and their distribution was analyzed. The purpose of this study is to develop a simple system to recognize the movement of a patient’s hand using measurements of EMG signals from only the most characteristic points on the forearm to replace similar, but more complex, research such as multi-channel measurement and wave analysis by FFT. The authors specified the optimum measuring points on the palm and dorsal sides of the forearm for the recognition of hand motion by the experimental system. This system successfully recognized hand motion through the analysis of the surface EMG signals measured from only two optimum points to allow arbitrary control of the rehabilitation device based on the recognition results.

The Status

In the research and development of the precise closed-loop control system in large hydraulic press, the touch screen and PLC are frequently applied to design, debug and test for the system. Though a better closed-loop control characteristic can be acquired after repeated testing by this way, the comprehensive state data of hydraulic press are unable to get, which leads to a long research cycle and also restricts the maintenance and upgrade with the equipment in the later period. In order to obtain the whole state information of hydraulic press easily and effectively, a monitor system of precise closed-loop control in large hydraulic press is designed. Based on reasonable cooperation of sensors and high-speed data-acquisition card, high-speed and precise signal acquisition is realized. In addition, data-acquisition software program is designed base on LabVIEW, it can achieve the functions of collecting, storing, displaying and analyzing data. Through the real measuring and analyzing on a certain large ceramic hydraulic press, the status of key parameters can be acquired effectively during the whole pressing process. So the monitoring system supplies the significant data basis to the precise closed-loop control, accelerates the design and development of high characteristic precise closed-loop control and also strongly supports to the maintenance and upgrade with the equipments in the later period.

In Nepal, most of the farmers depend upon traditional agricultural practices. Adapting modern agricultural technology plays an important role in improving overall efficiency as well as the productivity of their yields. In modern agriculture, the Internet of Things (IoT) connects farmers to their farm via sensors so that they can easily monitor the real-time conditions of their farm from anywhere. The White Button Mushroom is a widely cultivated crop among Nepalese farmers. Although being the most consumed and cultivated crop, it is still overshadowed by the traditional cultivation approach, which is resulting in low productivity, high manpower efficiency, and more effort and cost. This work aims to develop a monitoring system to monitor the environmental conditions of a mushroom farm. It enables a user to monitor crucial factors such as temperature, humidity, moisture, and light intensity on a mushroom farm through the end devices. White Button Mushroom requires an optimum temperature ranging from 22 to 25 °C and humidity from 70% to 90%. Sensors are placed at fixed locations and spots of the farm. Then, the sensors measure the status of parameters, which are transmitted to the remote monitoring station via a low power Node MCU (micro-controller unit). Thus, obtained data are stored in a cloud platform. The codes for the controller are written in the Arduino programming language, debugged, compiled, and burnt into the microcontroller using the Arduino integrated development environment. The result shows successful monitoring of environmental conditions accessing the Internet from anywhere. It minimizes human efforts and automates production, which could be beneficial to Nepalese farmers.
