New Method of Program Selection in Digital TV Receivers and its Evaluation by Users

A novel type of a user-friendly "man-to-TV set" interface has been designed for the new generation of digital TV sets with many hundreds of channels. It consists of an optimised remote-control device and a system of menus appearing on the TV screen. Response of potential users has been tested on the groups of students of different age and education, including seniors. Positive results have shown that the new TV control system can be used in practice.

Background/Objectives: It is a common for existing golf courses to manage all lighting facilities in batches because it is hard to controllighting individually. That is very much part of the golf courses and forces the whole golf course to light on even though play was finished due to the difficulty of real time checking situationMethods/Statistical analysis: Lighting control device and method in this study are provided not only to control remotely individual lighting installed each hole in golf course but to inspect failure of lighting. There is no longer to stay golf course in person to control lighting system.Findings:Lighting control device and method to be able to control individual lighting installed each hole in golf course is provided to response for the problem in a waste of electricity after playing. User device makes it possible to remotely control lighting and inspect failure of itImprovements/Applications: It can expect to reduce golf course operation management cost by building a smart tower remote control system

Today's Industrial Control Applications are done by Remote Process only. Lab VIEW Software plays major role in Industrial Monitoring and control systems. In this paper i am going to discuss about Lab View based induction motor drive control system. It is One of the most common applications required in remote control and monitoring. Drive control system has various types of controller, in order to perform some actions such as control the speed, forward and reverse turning direction of the motor. This approach can be done by Lab VIEW programming, and with the rise of the technology, Ethernet module will be used in order to achieve the remote control system. Lab VIEW is a human machine interfaces design software that is user friendly. It can be easily communicate with different hardware.

This paper reports a qualitative study of the acceptability of lighting control systems by 41 French office workers, in three sites with dimmable lighting, respectively with manual, semi-manual, and automatic control. The analysis of the results aimed to determine the characteristics of an ideal lighting control system. It appeared that the occupants found automatic continuous daylight-linked systems discreet, but they needed to be able to override them. The complexity of the remote control has led occupants to under-exploit it. Many occupants chose lower artificial light levels when daylight was bright, in order to benefit more from daylight. Automatic dimming with manual choice of illuminance level, optional task lighting, and user friendly control, may be the key elements of an ideal lighting control system.

Feeding fish is the most important thing in raising fish, with regular feeding to fish the fish will be able to continue to breed, In general, the process of feeding still requires human resources that are still manual, so that it will be difficult and disrupt human activity itself, if the process carried out must spread the food in the aquarium when someone is not in place, Therefore, currently IOT (Internet of Thing) technology has been developed which can facilitate human activities with remote control systems. The process of feeding with a remote control system is done using android, so as to simplify and save someone's time in the process of feeding without having to be in place. The control system used is Arduino ESP8266 as a single board micro controller platform, so that the control device can function to connect the WI-FI network. The process of connecting an Arduino ESP8266 device with a smartphone is done using the broker as hosting, the broker used was MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport), MQTT is a protocol that runs on the TCP / IP stack and is designed specifically for machine to machine that does not have a specific address. MQTT broker's working system is to implement publish as data sender, subcribe as data recipient, and topic as hosting data broker.
