ABSTRACT Introduction: Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a clinical auxiliary examination for the diagnosis of musculoskeletal system injuries by ultrasound imaging technology. Objective: To explore the real time application value of musculoskeletal ultrasound in exercise. Methods: The MSKUS technique was used to diagnose and classify the types, positions and degrees of sports injuries. Results: A total of 35 athletes received a MSKUS diagnosis; 2 athletes were recommended to withdraw from competition after the diagnosis and return to China for treatment. Among the athletes, 9 cases (25.71%) suffered muscle injury, 22 (62.86%) suffered tendon, ligament and fascia injury, 2 (5.71%) suffered bone and cartilage injury, and 2 (5.71%) suffered bursitis. The main site of injury was the lower extremity (74.29%). Most of the injuries were mild, and only 2 cases were severe. Conclusions: Musculoskeletal ultrasound has certain advantages in the real-time diagnosis of tendons, ligaments and soft tissue in the field. Using musculoskeletal ultrasounds, doctors can assess the injury situation more quickly and accurately, and choose the next steps concerning exercise prescription and a rehabilitation treatment plan more effectively. Musculoskeletal ultrasound is real time, reliable and convenient, and has application value in sports. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.

Telemedicine has become an increasingly important part of the modern healthcare infrastructure, especially in the present situation with the COVID-19 pandemics. Many cloud platforms have been used intensively for Telemedicine. The most popular ones include PubNub, Amazon Web Service, Google Cloud Platform and Microsoft Azure. One of the crucial challenges of telemedicine is the real-time application monitoring for the vital sign. The commercial platform is, by far, not suitable for real-time applications. The alternative is to design a web-based application exploiting Web Socket. This research paper concerns the real-time six-parameter vital-sign monitoring using a web-based application. The six vital-sign parameters are electrocardiogram, temperature, plethysmogram, percent saturation oxygen, blood pressure and heart rate. The six vital-sign parameters were encoded in a web server site and sent to a client site upon logging on. The encoded parameters were then decoded into six vital sign signals. Our proposed multi-parameter vital-sign telemedicine system using Web Socket has successfully remotely monitored the six-parameter vital signs on 4G mobile network with a latency of less than 5 milliseconds.

This paper discusses on attitude control of a quadcopter unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in real time application. Newton-Euler equation is used to derive the model of system and the model characteristic is analyzed. The paper describes the controller design method for the hovering control of UAV automatic vertical take-off system. In order to take-off the quadcopter and stable the altitude, PID controller has been designed. The scope of study is to develop an altitude controller of the vertical take-off as realistic as possible. The quadcopter flight system has nonlinear characteristics. A simulation is conducted to test and analyze the control performance of the quadcopter model. The simulation was conducted by using Mat-lab Simulink. On the other hand, for the real time application, the PCI-1711 data acquisition card is used as an interface for controller design which routes from Simulink to hardware. This study showed the controller designs are implemented and tuned to the real system using Real Time Windows Target approach by Mat-Lab Simulink.
