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…

Sales behavior and the technical development of products influence their fabrication. As market influences become increasingly volatile and unpredictable, factories will have to adapt their manufacturing to market trends even more in the future. Adaptation is referred to as convertibility and can be achieved, among other things, by mobile and intercompatible machines. Enabling machines to…

Road safety has become an object of research and many research institutes have invested in this field because a lot of people die and many others are injured every year due to road accidents. The deployment of wireless communication technologies for vehicular networks can considerably improve road safety. It can enable new services such as…

IoT integrates and connects intelligent devices or objects with varied architectures and resources. The number of IoT devices is growing exponentially. Due to the massive wave of IoT objects, their diversity and heterogeneity among their architectures, the existing communication protocols for wireless networks become ineffective in the context of IoT. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has…

Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is the future of aviation. It is a vast system that provides situational awareness for the aviator and regulator at a very low cost and does so with the aid of multiple disparate systems working closely together and communicating with one another. ADS-B uses the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS/ GPS)…
