Humans spend most of their time indoors, where air quality and comfort are crucial to health and well-being. Elevated CO 2 levels in buildings can reduce cognitive function, discomfort, and health issues. Indoor CO 2 monitoring has emerged as a key focus in the literature, particularly in residential buildings, as it can play a vital role in helping to maintain adequate ventilation rates. The growing smart home market demands seamless integration and control, which are essential for implementing IAQ sensing devices. However, interoperability barriers between platforms and devices continue to hinder smart home adoption. To address these challenges, Matter protocol is starting to appear in the market. In this work, a wireless CO 2 sensor is developed based on ESP32-C6 and SCD40 and integrated into a created Matter-enabled ecosystem formed with the Home Assistant open-source platform. The utilized hardware and software enable the usage of two different wireless communication technologies, WiFi and Thread, enhancing compatibility. The study highlights the rapid and seamless onboarding of the developed CO 2 monitoring device into smart home ecosystems using the Matter protocol. As a result, once the device is successfully added to the ecosystem, the measurements can be accessed and analyzed through a mobile application, forming an IoT environment.

Automatic Carnatic Music (CM) transcription is an open problem in need of a standardized descriptive notation. The level of detail needed in a descriptive transcription makes it tedious to obtain ground truth by manual means. In this paper, we propose a novel state-based representation of the pitch curve motivated by CM components called constant-pitch notes and stationary points. We also propose a novel transcription technique that uses the Viterbi algorithm to estimate the states and quantized pitch-values. The proposed technique adheres best to raga-notes compared to the existing critical-points technique and uniform quantization. In a listening test, clips synthesized from the proposed notation were rated significantly better (324 ratings, p <;0.001) than those from critical-points. Further, speed-halving based on state information best matches the actual, observed CM component-duration ratios without losing raga-characteristics. Thus, the proposed transcription can be corrected manually to obtain ground truth and can enhance learning tools.

The development of multi laser-powder bed fusion (PBF) technology has significantly reduced the production time for large engine components. However, the impact of thermal effects and microstructural characteristics in the laser beam overlap region on the anisotropic mechanical behavior of metallic materials remains unclear. This study investigated the anisotropic tensile properties and high-cycle fatigue behavior of Ti6Al4V produced by both single laser-PBF (SL-PBF) and dual laser-PBF (DL-PBF). As-built DL-PBF samples exhibited high strength (1404 MPa) but low ductility (3.6 %). After heat treatment, the samples achieved a strength-ductility balance, with an ultimate tensile strength of 1089 MPa, and an elongation of 17.1 %. The mechanical properties of Ti6Al4V produced by DL-PBF were influenced by the α lath thickness, dislocation density and texture. The precipitation of small-angle grain boundaries during DL-PBF process was found to contribute to the strong anisotropy. Due to the influence of internal pore forming, the fatigue strength of the DL-PBF samples was lower than that of the SL-PBF samples. Pores in the dual-laser beam overlap region accelerated the fatigue crack propagation, resulting in a venation-like pattern. In contrast, cracks in the SL-PBF samples propagated in a circular pattern around internal pore. A high-speed camera was employed to capture the dual-laser beams dynamics during pore formation. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the mechanical properties and pore formation mechanisms in the DL-PBF process.
