Although traditionally researchers have focused on making robotics more user-friendly from a human perspective, a new theory has begun to take shape in which humans take on the perspective of a robotic entity. The following set of studies examined the concept of technomorphism defined as the attribution of technological characteristics to humans. This concept has been mentioned anecdotally and studied indirectly, but there is nothing currently available to tap into the various forms that technomorphism may take. Through the study of technomorphism, researchers have come slightly closer to the question of how technology is influencing our perceptions of what it means to be human. The findings from this work should help fuel the desire of others in the field to think about the potential influences of technomorphism during the design and implementation of new devices as well as in how technology may be related to how we perceive each other.

And Control

This paper presents the design and implementation of control strategy for both the speed and direction of a direct current (DC) motor using Android-based application in smart phone. The Raspberry Pi 3 with a motor driver controller has been used to implement the control action via Python-based user-defined programming. The Android application has been developed using Android Developer Tools (ADT) in Java platform. The Android apps work like a client and communicates with Raspberry Pi through wi-fi connectivity. Finally, a small graphical user interface (GUI) has been created in Python in order to interface and control the motor with buttons in GUI. The advantages of GUI are that it is attractive, user friendly, and even a layman can work with the application developed in GUI.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a solar powered automated greenhouse. The objectives are to automatically control the environment, irrigation, and fertilizer to plants in the greenhouse. Another aspect is that its operation is suitable for anyone without knowledge in greenhouses, computers, electronics, etc. Specific objectives are: Control the gain of the low temperature by means of a sensor and actuators that extract fans as hot air and introduce fresh air, and a lamp to increase the temperature if necessary. Control the relative humidity by means of a sensor and valves that open to introduce water and fertilize if necessary. Control the charge and discharge of the battery to avoid prejudicing its life. Develop a modular, user-friendly and simple to operate. Battery is charged by solar cells. This greenhouse can be installed in remote towns where electricity is not available.

A user-friendly computer interface was created for the SPEX 1403 Raman spectrometer using the LabVIEW computer package. The interface allows the user to align the spectrometer easily, produce a graph of the Raman spectra, and save the file to a format readable by a spreadsheet program. The program has three screens: the first allows the user to set initial settings, the second allows the user to read from a particular wavelength for proper alignment, and the third allows the user to set scan settings and perform the scan. The interface was successful in reading Raman spectra easily and efficiently.

The design and implementation of a graphical user interface (GUI) for the control and operation of a biped robot is presented. This GUI allows establishing communication between the user, the robot and a computer (controller) so that the robot can perform bipedal walking without the need to introduce commands that are not user-friendly. The developed graphic interface permits the user to carry out tasks operating on the robot without having to resort to commands that are not easy to use. This interface was created using the MATLAB-Simulink software and it presents important advantages compared to the manual operation of a robot.

This paper presents the design and implementation of an android application for managing various events. The software is supported to eliminate and in some cases reduce the hardships faced by any event organizer. It is mainly designed to carry out the operations smoothly and efficiently. Users will have to create accounts with their credentials. This software provides a user-friendly interface which allows the clients to contact service providers effectively. It also provides a note-keeping service which gives reminders time to time to the busy organizer. It makes it easy for the user and the clients to store their past expenses and events. This software makes the event organizer plan his event more strategically and provides better services to the clients.

Software evolution has no common paradigm which practitioners can adhere to. On the contrary, there is a wide range of models, methods, techniques, and tools which are selected according to the specific task, the application domain, the professional experience, and the organizational culture. We argue that different approaches and technologies may be combined into a unique platform to satisfy the needs of software systems which evolve over long periods of time. This paper presents the Integrated Environment for Software Evolution Management (IESEM) which includes software repositories, reverse engineering tools, rationale capture tools, software measurement tools, and a user-friendly interface. It can manage heterogeneous systems characterized by various design methods and programming languages. IESEM is based on a central repository which stores software engineering artifacts, program code, design, and implementation decisions in the form of a traceability graph. The repository stores also software measures computed both from programs and external CASE repositories. Measures are used to control software degradation during its evolution and to support decisions based on quality factors. The key concepts of IESEM, its design, and implementation are presented. The use of IESEM during development and maintenance is discussed. A case study shows IESEM's effectiveness in performing maintenance tasks.

Abstract This paper covers the design and implementation of an accurate, yet flexible test system for Lithium-Ion batteries. The system makes use of linear charge and discharge circuitry to ensure a low noise control, and can support the simultaneous and independent testing of six cells. The system is controlled and data collected by specialist MatLab© software with a user-friendly GUI. Experimental data is processed within the same environment to obtain the desired information. The system makes use of Full Cycle Coulomb Counting and Pulsed DC Load Analysis to obtain estimates for the State of Health (SoH) and State of Charge (SoC) of various cells, and to examine the effect of different use cases on cell performance through repeated testing.
