The design, fabrication and testing of a power availability recorder (PAR) to track the duration of electricity supply in facilities is presented. The design was executed with C-Language encoded in a microcontroller which served as the central processing unit of the device. Proteus software was, subsequently, used to simulate the real-life practicability of the device…

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) technology has the potential to improve the learning experience of students in the classroom. This article addresses some of the key theoretical areas identified in the pursuit of implementing a speech recognition system, capable of lesson summary generation in the educational setting. The article discusses: some of the applica- tions of…

For its importance nowadays in a wide range of applications such as the anechoic chamber, we introduce a microwave ultra-broadband polarization-independent metamaterial absorber (MA) in the Ultra High Frequency (UHF)/ Super High Frequency (SHF) frequency bands. Through this work, we improved the Relative Absorptive Bandwidth (RAB) of the conventional pyramidal absorber (CPA) by modifying its…

Diploma certificate and transcript forgery is a serious issue in education. The government is still finding the best way to prevent and minimize this issue in the future. The diploma certificate and transcript are very easy to duplicate, not only from third parties. Even the university can easily produce a fake diploma certification and transcript…

This article copes with the formal verification of properties of the missions building module of PILOT’s software. PILOT is a language dedicated to remote control of robots. An incremental syntax-oriented editor was built in order to increase the dependability of PILOT’s missions and we showed that, under a maximum size of plan, this editor allows…

Hearing impairments have a negative impact in the lives of individuals living with them and those around such individuals. Different applications and technological tools have been developed to help reduce this negative impact. Most mobile applications that have been developed that use Speech-to-Text technology have been inconsistent such that they are not inclusive of all…

Rescuers escorted search dogs into the disaster area, using their unique sense of smell to find the injured. First, researchers summarize the design requirements in the search process from interviews with rescuers, and construct a conceptual prototype to confirm the interaction mode between the user and the dog. User central design invited people melt into…

The purpose of this study is to show how to design the character used as the symbol or Mascot of the educational institution and how to apply the design results into advertising and Brand identity design such as printing art, poster, digital media, toy, and souvenir. In this study, the ideas of mascot design have…

In 2020, a great change occurred around the world due to the covid-19 pandemic, daily activities were restructured and thanks to technological advance it has been an ideal means to carry out remote work. With regard to education in Peru, it was paralyzed for a long time and only obtained in later months the option…

Academic certifications are achievements desired by people, because they have a direct impact, positively, on their social lives. Such an important document, still widely issued in paper format, may be subject to forgery or impossibility of verification due to the unavailability of the issuing entity. This work consists of identifying, analyzing and testing some of…

Most crossroads use a traffic light to communicate between human-driven vehicles by conveying to the drivers when to stop and when to proceed in an organized fashion. However, the stop and wait nature of traffic lights cause slower mobility, leading to congestion. This paper presents a localization scheme based on two-dimensional (2D) flat geometry adaptation…

Traditional crossroads use traffic lights, but may cause delays due to its stop and wait process. Moreover, autonomous vehicles are being made, although it is not yet mass-produced. This work presents a design and implementation of an agile system that communicates and coordinates autonomous vehicles entering the intersection by adjusting their speeds and maneuvers to…

The performance of indoor illumination control in many applications, such as in an intelligent building, relies on the quality of the light sensors. In many cases, the light level is not uniform and depends on the direction of the illumination source. It usually requires multiple sensors set up in different directions to gather the overall…

Preventive care approaches have attracted much attention in Japan, which is one of the world’s most super-aged societies. These approaches aim to decrease the number of people who require nursing care or other human support. Our research group has developed several kinds of preventive care systems, including a fall prevention system, a cognitive training system,…

The purpose of this research is to study the relevance of factors for the analysis of the effectiveness of suitable educational institutions that illustrate the significance of the characteristics and attributes of the student’s academic achievements and to identify the acceptance and tolerance of each attribute, which supports lifelong learning. The data used in this…

The study aims to demonstrate how the use of the design process can align a brand’s strategy with the interests of its target audience through a digital product based on a case study. Currently, Lexus internal studies show that there is a possibility to meet the needs of new audiences, beyond the traditional ones (men,…

Water is an important vital resource, and must be protected and saved. Unfortunately, millions of liters of water are wasted annually at the national level in Peru, one of the factors is the discomfort when people take a hot shower, because first the water is cold, which is contained in the pipes of domestic connections…

Communication is a bilateral process and being understood by the person you are talking to is a must. Without the ability to talk nor hear, a person would endure such handicap. Given that hearing and speech are missing, many have ventured to open new communication methods for them through sign language. This bilateral communication device…

It was analyzed the reference information on Cybersecurity architectures, models, standards, evaluations, mechanisms, and procedures applied to IoT domains, and public and private health area. The problem is the lack of proposals for IoT Cybersecurity in public and private hospitals to minimize random failures, ensure the privacy of personal data of patients, avoid the paralysis…

The paper presents sharing several of experiences and practices on smart robotic application for overhead transmission line maintenance and inspection.
