This robotic vehicle is a farming machine of significant power and incredible soil clearing limit. This multipurpose system gives a propel technique to sow, furrow, water, and cut the harvests with the least labor and work. The machine will develop the ranch by considering specific line and a section settled at a fixed distance depending on the crop. Moreover, the vehicle can be controlled through voice commands connected via Bluetooth medium using an Android smartphone. The entire procedure computation, handling, checking is planned with engines and sensor interfaced with the microcontroller. The major modules of the vehicle are cultivating, sowing seeds, watering, harvesting the crop. The vehicle will cover the field with the help of the motors fixed which is being controlled with the help of the voice commands given by the user. The main motto of this project is to make the vehicle available and should be operated by everyone even without any technical knowledge.

Access to external sources of technical knowledge is one of the keys to staying innovative for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The literature suggests that SMEs with a weak internal R&D capacity do not make much use of institutional sources like research institutes and universities. In this paper I investigate how trade associations can induce member SMEs to use a research institute. The case of a public research institute and SMEs in the textile industry in Kyoto, Japan is examined. Evidence from the case suggests that trade associations facilitate the use of the institute by expressing a collective ‘voice’ to the management of the institute. The effect is evident among active members in the use of services involving a large information gap as to their benefits. I also consider a shortcoming of the collective approach and suggest some measures to be taken on the part of research institutes.

The voice-controlled vehicle was created to make human work easier, since we live in an artificial intelligence-driven world where robots perform many tasks. The human voice is used to drive the vehicle. A stable android mobile application built with android studio software transmits the speech. It's essentially a Wi-Fi link. Using the mobile application, we can operate the vehicle with our voice from anywhere. The NodeMCU IoT framework is free and open source. It includes firmware for the ESP8266 Wi-Fi module, a Espressif Systems SoC, and ESP-12 module hardware. With the application that has been created, human work may become simpler. Since the vehicle will be linked to Wi-Fi, we will be able to access it from any location in our project. He or she will use the Android application to send commands or voice commands such as forward, backward, left, right, left forward, left backward, right forward, right backward, and right forward, right backward. The pins have been connected to the NodeMCU esp8266, and the code to control the car has been written. When an object or vehicle inhibits the car's movement, an ultrasonic sensor is used to stop it. The voice is recognised and forwarded to the HiveMQ server, where it is processed. HiveMQ's MQTT broker is optimised for cloud native deployments to take advantage of cloud resources. The use of MQTT reduces the amount of bandwidth used to transport data across the network. Low overall operating costs are a result of efficient IoT solutions. The hivemq server receives the command from the Android application and sends it to the NodeMCU microcontroller, which programmes the code to drive the vehicle. The voicecontrolled robot vehicle project has military, surveillance, and human applications in scope. It's a voice-activated wireless robot vehicle. The project's main goal is to guide the robotic vehicle to a specific location. In addition, the project's main goal is to use voice to control the robot. It is now possible to have

Our paper focuses on development of voice controlled robotic vehicle for unmanned environment for selecting up and dropping an individual. Our goal is to assist the people by assisting them in their daily activities with the assistance of robotic car. The voice controlled provides a convenient and effortless thanks to control the robotic car which may also aid people that cannot walk. Voice controlled robotic system is also valuable in areas where there is high risk for humans to enter. The robotic vehicle operates as per the command received from android device, for this Arduino is integrated in the system.

Voice Controlled Robotic Vehicle is an example of controlling the bot with the help of daily used voice commands. An Android app is used for giving input voice commands and in order to control the motion of robotic vehicle. The voice commands given by us is processed by the app and voice module converts speech into text. A controller should be implemented with a Bluetooth module through the UART protocol. The converted text commands reach the controller via Bluetooth. The microcontroller will process this text and take a necessary action to control the motion of the robotic vehicle. The hardware development board used here is Atmega Arduino Board. The software programming part is done in Arduino Ide using Embedded C. The objective of the project described in this paper was to regulate the movement of the robotic vehicle using commands such as Forward, Backward, Left, Right. There is still a plenty of scope for research and development in the project described in this paper. Adding a very small size camera and using http communication protocol we can receive video streaming from the camera which is placed on the robotic vehicle. The Robotic vehicle now can be used for surveillance of terrorist prone areas, suspected areas.

This article foregrounds the voice of an IT professional who is directly employed by a large British company and who, along with colleagues, is experiencing career uncertainty resulting from a management initiative to replace the established workforce with an alternative labour supply provided by a global IT services company. As an account that reflects the uncertainty of the age, the narrative offers insights into current discussions concerning the contemporary nature and experience of work generally. More specifically it tells of a loss of confidence and status of technical professionals as they are methodically undermined by the confident assertion of a ‘shareholder value’ rhetoric. The suggestion is made that the application of commercial–professional rationality to the outsourcing of IT operations may underestimate the commercial risks associated with the loss of embodied technical knowledge gained across time as IT systems evolve to become complex constructions.

The purpose of this article is to show how one urban school district dealt with a perceived need to improve its effectiveness in diagnosing and treating voice disorders. The local school district established semiannual voice clinics. Students aged 5-18 were referred, screened, and selected for the clinics if they appeared to have a chronic voice problem. The specific procedures used in setting up the voice clinics and the subsequent changes made over a 10-year period are presented.

The purpose of this article is to update the management of the treatment of the female voice at perimenopause and menopause. Voice and hormones—these are 2 words that clash, meet, and harmonize. If we are to solve this inquiry, we shall inevitably have to understand the hormones, their impact, and the scars of time. The endocrine effects on laryngeal structures are numerous: The actions of estrogens and progesterone produce modification of glandular secretions. Low dose of androgens are secreted principally by the adrenal cortex, but they are also secreted by the ovaries. Their effect may increase the low pitch and decease the high pitch of the voice at menopause due to important diminution of estrogens and the privation of progesterone. The menopausal voice syndrome presents clinical signs, which we will describe. I consider menopausal patients to fit into 2 broad types: the “Modigliani” types, rather thin and slender with little adipose tissue, and the “Rubens” types, with a rounded figure with more fat cells. Androgen derivatives are transformed to estrogens in fat cells. Hormonal replacement therapy should be carefully considered in the context of premenopausal symptom severity as alternative medicine.
