The deductive method was applied for the review and analysis of criteria, factors and variables…

The “Electronic Nose” approach, which is exclusive to gas measurement systems, uses gas sensors as odor detectors. Design faults exist in the existing electronic nose (e-nose) chamber, such as its large volume, difficult construction, etc. In order to obtain measurements in a satisfactory state, we want to create a gas chamber that can provide favorable…

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) is an international model for mapping and classifying underground surfaces according to their accuracy (acquisition method). Utilizing Geographic Information System (GIS) to map and present the SUE levels paved the way for producing a new Decision Support System (DSS) for the utility mapping process. The proposed system represents an efficient tool…

The constant evolution of Information and Communication Technologies, Internet, access to different free software, among others; they generate problems in the management of information security in companies; to mitigate risks, vulnerabilities, and information threats, an alternative was presented considering that information security systems are the basis for decision-making at the government, strategic, tactical, and operational…

A reconfigurable Stepped Frequency Continuous Wave (SFCW) radar prototype for supporting the italian financial police to contrast smuggling, is proposed in this work. In particular, the proposed radar can provide information related to the container contents and the presence of false bottoms speeding up the control operations at borders and ports. Moreover, it is able…

Waste is currently a serious problem often found in rural areas, rural areas, and even industrial areas. Waste is a side effect of activities carried out by humans to meet social or industrial needs. Increasing human productivity will also increase the amount of waste produced. To overcome this, a sorting management system is needed. Good…

In this COVID-19 pandemic, it has been registered that children with autism are not learning properly with this virtual modality in Peruvian education. The main objective of this research work is to design a mobile application with augmented reality so that autistic children can improve their cognitive development in their virtual and face-to-face classes, the…

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…

The use of wireless sensor networks (WSN) can be a valuable contribution in disaster situations or life-threatening exploration. Using wireless mobile robots, it is possible to explore vast areas without human intervention. However, the wireless network coverage that can keep mobile robots connected to the base station / gateway is a major limitation. With this…

The technological evolution and the frequent use of the Internet as a technology within the framework of the Internet of Things and Robotics has affected various fields such as Industry 4.0, smart agriculture, smart cities, home automation and autonomous cars. These advances applied to everyday life have facilitated the implementation of new concepts to minimize…

The role of creativity techniques in the design of prototypes is of particular interest given its potential for innovation. At same time, despite the efforts of decades in terms of policies and programs of action, humanity has not yet come close to global sustainability. Sustainability design must involve society and creatively employ all available knowledge…

Information on alternative technologies or new prototypes was analyzed to help improve the quality of business management services. The problem is the lack of application of new technologies that improve the quality of service and reduce disagreements in the management of organizations. The objective is to present a prototype for the management of engineering and…

To be able to perform a better voting system, it is important to go to ICT and its various platforms designed for electoral purposes, which are being used in several countries in Latin America. In Ecuador are being used digital mechanisms during the process, but with certain errors and he is being considered to implement…

Braille system is purposely made for visually impaired people, to support their literal communication in order to share their knowledge. Louis Braille introduced the braille system consists of series dots which are embossed to read by touching. Early days Braille papers are made manually, but at current days braille documents are made using machines. Due…

Advanced sensing technologies are providing for greater capabilities to discern and classify details of objects as they appear in actual environments as experienced by nonprofessional drivers. Distinctive geometric configurations of new sensory devices including but not limited to infrared (abbreviated as IR) and LIDAR sensory units are appearing as cost effective data acquisition systems for…

There is a growing interest in using radio frequency in imaging for problem solving in situational awareness, surveillance, search and rescue operations, and screening for security. This has been fetched from recent development in addition to innovative technologies in microwave radar imaging applications. Despite the fact that no new phenomenology is exposed in this field,…

Using smart parking systems has become very important, and particularly so for metropolitan areas, because of the benefits for drivers in many aspects, such as time, frustration, stress, and anger, in addition to the increased consumption of fuel while searching for a vacant parking space. This paper proposes a review of recent advances in sensing…

The paper presents a prototype Head Up Display interface which acts as an interactive infotainment system for rear seat younger passengers, aiming to minimize driver distraction. The interface employs an Augmented Reality medium that utilizes the external scenery as a background for two platform games explicitly designed for this system. Additionally, the system provides AR…

Advances in Internet of Things (IoT) and wireless technologies are revolutionizing various sectors, including environment, education, healthcare, industry, etc. In the same dynamic, as the world population constantly evolves, solutions based on such technologies need to be proposed to improve the agricultural sector. Senegalese agriculture, primarily rain-fed and based on both cash crops and subsistence…

Many prosthetic hands are focused on appearance and grip strength, however, gestures are also one of the performances that users need for communicating with others as body language to express their feeling and intention. For this paper, the initial prototype of the gesturing robotics hand is presented by using multiple types of actuators concept to…

This research presents a “Multi-camera for pilot’s cockpit measurement system”, which uses four multi-view images to eliminate the instrument and human body shielding and record the touched area. That could record the body reaction time (velocity and acceleration) and trajectory of the tested personnel. Real-time conversion of multi-view images corresponding to the 3D skeletal joint…

The main purpose in this work is to explore the fact that chaos, as a biological characteristic in the brain, should be used in an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) system. In fact, as long as chaos is present in brain functionalities, its properties need empirical investigations to show their potential to enhance accuracies in artificial…

The use of Covid-19 contact tracing applications has become almost irrelevant now that several flavors of Covid-19 vaccine have been developed and are constantly being distributed to people during the pandemic to help alleviate the need for lockdowns.
