Stereotaxic surgery is a less invasive form of surgery that uses a three-dimensional coordi-nate system to place instruments at a specific location in the brain. Through this type of surgery, one can place needles among other tools within the structures of the brain. Therefore, injections can be given in order to deliver substances that cannot cross the blood-brain barrier. The two most important parameters of the microinjection to control are volume and speed. The volume should not be so large that it displaces the brain tissue and tears it. The injection speed must also be slow so that the liquid that comes out of the syringe can diffuse into the tissue without displacing it and damaging it. Thus, the objec-tives of the present work are: 1) To develop not a 3D printed prototype but an end-user device. 2) The device must be for animal research only. 3) It must have the same precision in volume and speed as commercial devices. 4) It must be adjustable for microsyringes from 0.5 ll to 1 ml. 5) It must be possible to place it directly on the stereotaxic surgery apparatus and to use it separately. 6) The price must be substantially lower than that of the commercial devices.& COPY;2023 The Authors.

This paper applies the construct of value tensions to an empirical investigation. Specifically, this work surfaces values tensions in data collected from a prominent online discussion forum about the arduino electronics prototyping platform. Findings show how two value tensions-easy access versus technical opportunity, and amateur versus expert practices-inform different sentiments toward creative technologies.

The family entertainment center serves as the primary entertainment intermediary, catering especially to young people and adults through various games, such as virtual reality and the latest entertainment revolution of 3D technology. In order to sustain growth, family entertainment centers must regularly invest in new machines. The process of financing these investments must be precise to streamline company costs and ensure visitor satisfaction. The leadership's decision-making factors for investments can be effectively supported through technology. Therefore, the objective of this research is to create a prototype modeling system that simplifies the ongoing installation process and integrates Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) figures through arduino, displaying them on a website. The end result of this research is a game prototype model for a family center that effectively assists managers in decision-making, particularly in evaluating machine ratings based on visitor transactions and revenue for each machine using the CAGR metric.

Now-a-days dependency on smart devices for day-to-day activities is on the rise. These devices are embedded with either microcontrollers or microprocessors. Various micro-controllers are available in the market which can be used for these purposes. The arduino is an open-source cost effective, compact and easy-to-use electronics platform built using an Atmel AVR microcontroller. These features make it an effective teaching tool for students to build electronics projects. Hence a course on microcontroller using arduino as a base was introduced for fourth semester Computer Science students. The course on microcontroller was associated with a laboratory which was conducted through blended mode of delivery. It involved interfacing external peripherals to the microcontroller. This gave the students an opportunity to build projects for real time applications. Students were actively engaged through a course project which necessitated them to write assembly programs [21]. arduino programming gives a clear picture of how the code interacts with the hardware. Though the students were exposed to blended learning approach for the first time, they were able to successfully carry out moderately complex projects like smart irrigation system, gas leakage detection system, and so on. It was seen that the team members interacted remotely and indulged in meaningful discussions to come up with optimal designs and solutions. The outcomes attained by authors through this attempt was that- students were able to understand the value and importance of coding in assembly and embedded C language, transform a physical input into a digital input and analyze it. This helped the students to complete customizable full arduino project autonomously, from the beginning to the end.

The introduction of disruptive technologies in agriculture to facilitate the management and increase crop productivity is called "Precision Agriculture". This work sought to develop a prototype that uses the Open-Source arduino platform interconnected to a soil moisture sensor, using the Paraconsistent Annotated Evidential Logic E tau (Logic E tau) for decision-making on the irrigation system. This work proposed to research and understand the concepts of Irrigation System, arduino Platform, and the use of sensors for monitoring a Home Vegetable Garden using logic E tau as a support for decision-making in the irrigation system. The methodology usedwas design science research, which allowed contributing newknowledge for the construction and materialization of the project. As a result, artefacts were generated that corroborated the creation of a prototype that met the objectives of this work, and it was possible to present an alternative with a low-cost system, easy to learn, accessible to small producers, with low energy consumption, and that helps in the conscious use of water.

Sound communication is the way animals use to exchange information, attack and defend themselves and also one of the ways the scientists can use to locate them. Passive sonar uses sounds from the environment to count things, locate things or trace trajectories. It can be used to find a gun shooter in a crowd or count the number of penguins in a beach or anything that makes noise in a shine or dark place. This paper presents a simple circuit capable of emulate a territorial sound of the Amphibian Scinax tymbamirim, based on arduino board and the sound recorded previously in the animal habitat and an analysis that makes it possible to say that the sound produced is very similar to the recorded sound of the studied species.

Remote labs provide students with the capability for mobile learning and allow them to be practiced and experimented over specialized equipment and tools, from any place, for acquiring practical skills and fulfilling assignments of the courses they follow. Without the provision of such facilities, distant courses focusing on the training of students to use and program specific hardware equipment or licensed software cannot be offered. In this paper we wish to present the remote labs we offered to students of electrical and computer engineering for their remote practicing to microcontrollers and Internet of Things programming. The Labs are based on arduinos and exploit the capabilities of arduino CLI. The latter is used as the toolkit to implement an always-on web service that accepts arduino sketches, compiles, and sends them to the arduino Labs for execution. A web camera, streaming via the web page a panoramic view of each lab, enables the illustration of the outcome to the students, so they can have live feedback for the results of their programming. The Labs are complemented by a web-based booking system for scheduling access to them. Finally, appropriate course material and exercises have been prepared for the training of students over the Labs. The remote arduino Labs are implemented in the context of SYS-STEM, a two-year EU funded Erasmus+ KA2 project that aims to fill the gap of educational systems for training students remotely over open laboratorial platforms. This paper describes the rationale, aims and objectives of the project and presents the produced course material and its deployment in project partners' pilot installations.

This contribution shows the possibilities of applying a low-cost, multi-purpose data logger built around an arduino Mega 2560 single-board computer. Most projects use this kind of hardware to develop single-purpose data loggers. In this work, a data logger with a more general hardware and software architecture was built to perform measurement campaigns in very different domains. The wide applicability of this data logger was demonstrated with short-term monitoring campaigns in relation to outdoor air quality, human activity in an office, motion of a journey on a bike, and exhaust gas monitoring of a diesel generator. In addition, an assessment process and corresponding evaluation framework are proposed to assess the credibility of low-cost scientific devices built in-house. The experiences acquired during the development of the system and the short measurement campaigns were used as inputs in the assessment process. The assessment showed that the system scores positively on most product-related targets. However, unexpected events affect the assessment over the longer term. This makes the development of low-cost scientific devices harder than expected. To assure stability and long-term performance of this type of design, continuous evaluation and regular engineering corrections are needed throughout longer testing periods.
