Verslag van het deelproject Temperatuurmeting, onderdeel van het SaxShirt-project.

The problem addressed in this report is to verify the possibility of using an optical sensor in the SaxShirt in order to extract the heart rate. There are specifically three questions that we try to address. 1) How is it possible to extract heart rate (BPM) from the optical sensor? 2) Is it possible …

From Springer description: "We present the design considerations of an autonomous wireless sensor and discuss the fabrication and testing of the various components including the energy harvester, the active sensing devices and the power management and sensor interface circuits. A common materials platform, …

In the SaxShirt project Saxion is working on smart textile solution, but Saxion is not the only organization; commercial products are popping up in the market everywhere. This paper gives an up-to-date overview of the commercially available products, to have a clear view on the current market, to learn …

Achtergrond: Veel militairen krijgen in de opleiding of op functie last van onderbeenklachten. De blessure ontstaat vaak bij hardlopen en marsen op legerlaarzen, met ernstige beperkingen in belastbaarheid tot gevolg. Recente case studies vanuit het Amerikaanse leger laten veelbelovende resultaten zien …

In dit onderzoek is gekeken naar de storingverschijnselen van elektromagnetische straling op thermokoppelprobes. Deze thermokoppels worden gebruikt om de temperatuur te meten tijdens een hyperthermie behandeling. Bij hyperthermie wordt een patiënt verwarmd met elektromagnetische straling tot ongeveer …

In this paper the authors illustrate developments in sensor technology with a number of examples. From their own research they discuss radar, image processing and sensor networks. Radar performance is affected by propagation characteristics of electromagnetic waves. Experience has shown that this may …

At the biomedical department of the TUDelft a sensor node is designed[1]. This is an Autonomous Wireless Sensor Node(AWSN) with temperature monitoring, which is powered up wirelessly and have data transmission through backscattering. The aim of the project is to design a receiver for the AWSN and to …

By presenting tourists with real-time information an increase in efficiency and satisfaction of their day planning can be achieved. At the same time, real-time information services can offer the municipality the opportunity to spread the tourists throughout the city centre. An important factor for success …
