We have been developing a method of evaluating the mental health condition of a person based on the sound of their voice. Currently, we have applied this technology to create a smartphone application that shows the vitality and the mental activity as mental health condition indices. Using voice to measure one’s mental health condition is…

The modern stage of information technology development is characterized by the acute need to use cognitive technologies for the solution of tasks of practice, in particular, in the sphere of real world objects monitoring and management. Practical usage of cognitive systems of monitoring is significantly limited to two factors now: operation at the level of…

As society ages, the imbalance between family caregivers and elderly individuals increases, leading to inadequate support for seniors in many regions. This situation has ignited interest in automatic health monitoring systems, particularly in fall detection, due to the significant health risks that falls pose to older adults. This research presents a vision-based fall detection system…

In this work, our contribution will intervene to reduce the impact of noises on the ECG signals. Various ECG denoising approaches were tested to see how efficient they were in removing dominant noises that add to pure ECG signals. Due to different causes such as interference, muscular noise, body movement related to breathing, and so…

Smart animal husbandries require the adoption of dedicated tools to assess the contribution of each animal to the production process. The IoT platform presented in this article is a real-team monitoring system for voluntary weighing of cattle. To this end, the ISO 18000-6 standard is used for animal identification through an ultra-high-frequency radio link between…

Forecasting the occurrence and development of thunderstorms near insured mobile objects, such as aircraft carriers, oil tankers, requires the usage of appropriate single-point monitoring systems (SPMS) of thunderstorm activity. These systems must be small and included in the equipment of the objects. A SPMS based on EH location finder meets the requirements of small dimensions.…

Soil moisture is a fundamental factor for smart farming that is used to control the water management system. In this paper, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) small cell (UAV-SC) can provide Internet of things (IoT) as the hotspot mobility network, due to the minimum limitation energy of connected IoT.
