BACKGROUND: For older adults, physical activity is vital for maintaining their health and ability to live independently. Home-based programs can help them achieve the recommended exercise frequency. An application for a tablet computer was developed to support older adults in following a personal training …

Improved remote sensing in the field of UAV (Unmanned Air Vehicle) and SFM (Structure From Motion) photography provides the potential for efficient access to forest inventory parameters. These parameters help identify the forest structure, calculate carbon stocks, support sustainable timber extraction …

Industrial control systems are essential for the functioning of our society since they control our electricity, water, agriculture, health, communication, transportation, emergency service and financial service. In the digital age of big data and data analytics these so-called critical infrastructures …

The Noordwaard is a recently realised high water floodplain near Dordrecht. The design plan of the Noordwaard is an answer to the increasing river discharge extremes, combining water safety, agriculture, recreation and nature management. However, in terms of governance a gap has emerged. The Department …

The airport of Mexico City has been declared saturated for most of the day. For that reason, the Mexican government announced a couple of years ago the construction of a completely new one which is supposed to be operative in 2020 in its first phase. However, the technical issues and the economic downturn …

Research was conducted to enable remote control of a humanoid robotic arm using movements of the human arm. Several options for the measurement technique have been discussed, resulting in a proposal for usage of MARG sensor modules to measure human arm movement. The InvenSense MPU9250 sensors where used, …

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Because of the enormous growth of the aviation industry, Schiphol requires to expand its operations. The limitation of 500,000 aircraft movements led to an agreement about the expansion of a regional airport to accommodate the overcapacity of Schiphol Airport. Lelystad Airport was chosen …

Modern binaural hearing aids (HAs) can collaborate wirelessly with each other as well as with other assistive (wireless) devices. This enables multi-microphone noise reduction over small wireless acoustic sensor networks (WASNs) to increase the intelligibility under adverse conditions. In this work, …

Wageningen Marine Research (WMR) conducts a variety of monitoring programs in Dutch waters. These monitoring programs are conducted to gain knowledge of trends, abundance and diversity of fish species in the Dutch rivers and lakes. Many monitoring programs pay special attention to diadromous fish which …

Improvements to the process of carrying out test drives. Conceptualisation and realisation of code to run on microcontroller with the intent of reading telemetry data from a vehicle, containing it in memory and transmitting it to a remote server. Feasibility study on live analysis of the same and more …
