With the progressively more prominent usage of electric motors in a wide range of applications, more advanced monitoring of their operating parameters is becoming increasingly important. The in-service observation of the airgap magnetic flux can be very useful for monitoring the status of permanent magnets, which are key to most modern motors' performance. This was recently shown to be possible through the in-situ application of magnetostrictive composite fibre optic fluxsensors. This paper reports an electromagnetic finite element model study exploring the performance of various such sensor configurations and positions in the air-gap of a commercial motor design. The aim of the model study is to identify sensor design and positioning features that can yield an enhanced response in observation of rotor flux. It is shown that rectangular cross-sectional fluxsensor geometries provide a considerable advantage in this respect.
The technology of home projectors has matured significantly. However, most projectors are limited to static manual projectors, and projectors capable of automatic focusing and keystone correction are expensive. Furthe...

Anomaly detection in Wireless sensor Networks (WSNs) is critical for their reliable and secure operation. Optimizing resource efficiency is crucial for reducing energy consumption. Two new algorithms developed for anomaly detection in WSNs-Ensemble Federated Learning (EFL) with Cloud Integration and Online Anomaly Detection with Energy-Efficient Techniques (OAD-EE) with Cloud-based Model Aggregation. EFL with Cloud Integration uses ensemble methods and federated learning to enhance detection accuracy and data privacy. OAD-EE with Cloud-based Model Aggregation uses online learning and energy-efficient techniques to conserve energy on resource-constrained sensor nodes. By combining EFL and OAD-EE, a comprehensive and efficient framework for anomaly detection in WSNs can be created. Experimental results show that EFL with Cloud Integration achieves the highest detection accuracy, while OAD-EE with Cloud-based Model Aggregation has the lowest energy consumption and fastest detection time among all algorithms, making it suitable for real-time applications. The unified algorithm contributes to the system's overall efficiency, scalability, and real-time response. By integrating cloud computing, this algorithm opens new avenues for advanced WSN applications. These promising approaches for anomaly detection in resource constrained and large-scale WSNs are beneficial for industrial applications.

This paper presents a wireless sensor network employing heterogeneous mobile robot platforms designed for data-acquisition and research in agriculture, forestry and green spaces in smart cities. Where conventional sensor networks struggle with a lack in flexibility, little variation in their reading points and no possibilities in mobile manipulation, this approach offers new capabilities in accomplishing complex tasks in outdoor and indoor scenarios. A wheel driven robot platform in combination with multiple UAVs 1 1 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle forms the basis for the mobile sensor network which can make use of a wide variety of sensors and actuators. The system benefits from new developments in controlling multi-agent systems as well as machine-learning-algorithms for local and independent data-analysis.

This article describes the author's design of the Mecanum wheel mobile robots (MWR), which can be used as a test platform for experimental research into the development and implementation of autonomous systems. The paper contains a literature review of the subject matter and describes the mechanical actuator subsystem and electronic and information subsystem of the mobile robot solution. The robot was navigated using a minicomputer equipped with a Jetson Nano chip. The robot's navigation system was implemented using the ROS environment through high-level software. Software modularity is desirable in circuits intended for research and rapid prototyping. This allows for easier modification and maintenance. The microcontroller has been implemented with a DC drive control system and incremental encoder support to estimate robot position using odometry. The project utilizes the Jetson Nano for processing data from distance sensors and monitoring the robot's performance. The mobile platform is equipped with a RGB-D camera (Microsoft Kinect 360), the robot can use this to perform 3D mapping of the environment. A LiDAR sensor is used to collect data from a two-dimensional space. Laboratory tests were carried out to test the validity of the solutions adopted in the design of the Mecanum-wheeled mobile robot's navigation system configuration. Copyright (c) 2024 The Authors.

In the advanced field of Image Processing and Computer Vision (IP/CV), there is a trend toward utilising parallel processing in computer architectures for enhanced efficiency, striking a balance between general-purpose capabilities and hardware-specific processes. The RISC-V standard, now backed by a wide array of compilers, frameworks, and operating systems, is paving the way for innovative cores. Our introduction of a Multi-Processor systems on Chip (MPSoC), MPRISC-V, is a testament to this evolution. This system incorporates a Network on Chip (NoC) for robust intra-chip communication. The Processing System (PS) seamlessly integrates and manages it through a user-friendly API crafted to simplify the development cycle. To ascertain its effectiveness, we tested it on a Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC device, deploying a Sobel-based application benchmark. By evaluating its efficiency in terms of cycles/pixels, our findings underscore its potential and spotlight areas ripe for further enhancement.

IEEE sensors is the flagship conference of the IEEE sensors Council, attracting each year more than 800 paper submissions, on diverse topics related to sensing technologies, sensors devices, systems, and communications. The IEEE sensors 2019 conference was held in Montreal, QC, Canada, on October 27–30, 2019, and featured a program with 13 regular tracks and three focused sessions. The regular tracks targeted areas such as sensor phenomenology, modeling and evaluation, sensor materials, processing and fabrication (including printing), chemical, electrochemical, and gas sensors, microfluidics and biosensors, optical sensors, physical sensors, temperature, mechanical, magnetic and other sensors, acoustic and ultrasonic sensors, sensor packaging (including flexible materials), sensor networks (including IoT and related areas), emerging sensorapplications, sensorsystems: signals, processing and interfaces, as well as actuators and sensor power systems. One track was dedicated specifically to sensors in industrial practices. The three focused sessions targeted areas such as engineering in medical diagnostics and therapeutics, biomedical sensors based on electromagnetics, and flexible and printed IoT sensors.

With the enormous amount of data collected by unobtrusive sensors, the potential of utilizing these data and applying various multi-modal advanced analytics on them is numerous and promising. However, taking advantage of the ever-growing data requires high-performance data-handling systems to enable high data scalability and easy data accessibility. This paper demonstrates robust design, developments, and techniques of a hierarchical time-indexed database for decision support systems leveraging irregular and sporadic time series data from sensorsystems, e.g., wearables or environmental. We propose a technique that leverages the flexibility of general purpose, high-scalability database systems, while integrating data analytics focused column stores that leverage hierarchical time indexing, compression, and dense raw numeric data storage. We have evaluated the performance characteristics and tradeoffs of each to understand the data access latencies and storage requirements, which are key elements for capacity planning for scalable systems.
