Color is a property that we are able to observe thanks to our visual perception; however, an instrument is necessary to perform the quantification on the RGB scale. The purpose of this work is to design and build a colorimeter to identify the wear degree of a conventional residential fuse, the fuse has been exposed to normal wear. The study is carried out using the quantification of light reflection on the RGB scale. The developed sensor consists of: - A cylindrical base made on a 3D printer, which allows the external light to be isolated and the upper part of the fuse socket inserted. - An electronic circuit made up of RGB light emitting led and a photoresistor. - An Arduino program that measures the reflection of the fuse on the RGB scale. Implementing the sensor will allow the identification of fuses in poor condition, which can cause failures in the electrical system. Future work will be aimed at quantifying the increase of energy consumption due to the use of fuses in poor condition transferred in RGB space.

The two-wheeled electric skateboard (TWS) is designed for a personal vehicle. A Fuzzy-PID control strategy is designed and implemented for controlling its motion. Basically, motions control of the TWS is performed by balancing the pitch position of the TWS. Performance of the designed controller is demonstrated experimentally. The Fuzzy algorithm updates the PID gains and therefore it can handle the changing of the TWS load. Contribution of Fuzzy-PID in reducing the electric energy consumption, which is an important issue in electrical system, is also evaluated. The Fuzzy-PID successes to reduce the electric energy consumption of the TWS compared to the conventional PID.

 AbstrakPada kendaraan bermotor pelumasan adalah suatu hal yang sangat penting. Pelumasan berfungsi untuk melumasi komponen logam atau metal yang bergesekan dalam mesin. Untuk menjaga performa mesin kendaraan tetap prima maka kita harus cermat dalam memilih jenis oli yang akan digunakan menurut tingkat kekentalan oli yang dibutuhkan oleh kendaraan yang kita gunakan. Selain itu pemeriksaan dan pergantian oli secara berkala berperan penting dalam menjaga awetnya mesin kendaraan.Untuk membantu dalam pengecekan oli bagi para pemilik kendaran bermotor dalam hal ini sepeda motor dalam itu peneliti merancang sebuah alat pendeteksi kelayakan oli pada kendaraan sepeda motor. Perubahan nilai resistansi dari sensor IR (Infrared Resistor) setelah menerima pantulan cahaya dari LED (Light Emitting Diode) yang diletakkan diatas permukaan oli menyebabkan tegangan yang diterima Arduino Uno microcontroller ATmega328 membaca perubahan warna oli pada sebuah baki oli sepeda motor. Kata kunci : Pengecekan oli, Pantulan cahaya LED, Arduino Uno   AbstractLubrication in motor vehicles is important, lubrication is not only serves to lubricate metal or metal touching or friction in the machine. To maintain the performance of the vehicle's engine is prime, we must carefully select the type of oil to be used according to the oil viscosity level required by the vehicle we use. In addition, inspection and oil change periodically play an important role in maintaining the vehicle's crew.To assist in oil checking for motorised owners in this motorcycle in this case the author devised an oil feasibility detection tool on a motorcycle vehicle. Changes in resistance value from IR sensor (Infrared Resistor) after receiving light reflection from LED (Light Emitting Diode) that is placed above the oil surface causing the received voltage Arduino Uno Microcontroller ATmega328 Read the changes Oil color on a motorcycle oil tray. Keywords: Oil checking, LED light reflection, Arduino Uno

We introduce a compact lenslet array principle that takes advantage of freeform optics to deploy a light distributor, beneficial for highly efficient, inexpensive, low energy consumption light-emitting diode (LED) lighting system. We outline here a simple strategy for designing the freeform lens that makes use of an array of the identical plano-convex lenslet. The light is redistributed from such lenslet, hinging on the principle of optical path length conservation, and then delivered to the receiver plane. The superimposing of such illumination area from every lenslet occurs on the receiver plane, in which the non-uniform illumination area located in the boundary should have the same dimension as the size of the freeform lenslet array. Such an area, insofar, is negligible due to their small size, which is the crux of our design, representing a large departure from the former implementations. Based on simulations that assess light performance, the proposed design exhibited the compatibility for multiple radiation geometries and off-axis lighting without concern for the initial radiation pattern of the source. As simulated, the LED light source integrated with such proposed freeform lenslet array revealed high luminous efficiency and uniformity within the illumination area of interest were above 70% and 85%, respectively. Such novel design was then experimentally demonstrated to possess a uniformity of 75% at hand, which was close to the simulation results. Also, proposed indoor lighting was implemented in comparison with the commercial LED downlight and LED panel, whereby the energy consumption, number of luminaires and illumination performance were assessed to show the advantage of our simplified model.

Abstract Inside the brain tumor, the blood vessels are intricately composed, and the tumors and blood vessels are similar in color. Therefore, when observing tumors and blood vessels with the naked eye or a surgical microscope, it is difficult to distinguish between tumors and blood vessels. Fluorescence staining with indocyanine green (ICG) is performed to distinguish between brain tumors and blood vessels using a surgical microscope. However, when observing the blood circulation state of a tumor or blood vessel through a surgical microscope, light reflection occurs from the camera. In the process of observing the state of the blood vessel, due to the occurrence of light reflection, an obstruction phenomenon in which the observation field is blocked by the blood vessel of the object to be observed occurs. Therefore, it is difficult to diagnose the vascular condition. In this experiment, the 780nm light-emitting diode (LED) was irradiated to the ICG phantom, and then, when the fluorescence expression image was observed, the polarizing filter such as circular polarized light (CPL) filter and linear polarized light (LPL) filter were inserted into the camera and the reflected light was reduced. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the reflected light from the fluorescence expression image by using a polarizing filter, and it is expected to be applicable to surgery and diagnostic fields of cancer such as surgery.

In this study, the relative efficiency of four forms of supported titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a photocatalyst to degrade 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) in Killex®, a commercially available herbicide was studied. Coated glass spheres, anodized plate, anodized mesh, and electro-photocatalysis using the anodized mesh were evaluated under an ultraviolet – light-emitting diode (UV-LED) light source at λ = 365 nm in a semi-passive mode. Energy consumption of the system was used to compare the efficiency of the photocatalysts. The results showed both photospheres and mesh consumed approximately 80 J/cm3 energy followed by electro-photocatalysis (112.2 J/cm3), and the anodized plate (114.5 J/cm3). Although electro-photocatalysis showed the fastest degradation rate (K = 5.04 mg L−1 h−1), its energy consumption was at the same level as the anodized plate with a lower degradation rate constant of 3.07 mg L−1 h−1. The results demonstrated that three-dimensional nanotubes of TiO2 surrounding the mesh provide superior degradation compared to one-dimensional arrays on the planar surface of the anodized plate. With limited broad-scale comparative studies between varieties of different TiO2 supports, this study provides a comparative analysis of relative degradation efficiencies between the four photocatalytic configurations.
