This paper shows an overview of design practices of the XR-lab at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, The Netherlands. Over the course of six years, interdisciplinary teams of students have delivered 55+ prototypes in virtual, augmented, and mixed reality for a variety of 40+ clients. As human-computer …

Dit werk beschrijft de fabricage van een op titaniumcarbide nanodeeltjes gebaseerde inkjet-geprinte flexibele bidirectionele stromingssensor. Het ontwerp van de stromingssensor bestaat uit een met inkjet geprinte titaniumcarbide piëzoresistieve spanningsmeter op een polyester cantilever. De sensoren …

In section 1 the problem definition is 5 % of all kids in the Netherlands suffer from dysfunctional breathing (Ludden, Mader, van Rees, & Siering, 2019). The research group S&FT has a project: the WBT. This project focuses on personalised care for children ages 6-12 with breathing disorders by means …

Tijdens het voorjaar laait de media-aandacht rondom weidevogelbeheer en het behoud van weidevogels op. Duidelijk is dat er een afname van weidevogels zichtbaar is. Het belang wat hierbij leidend is dat het een passende en praktisch toepasbare werkwijze voor agrarisch ondernemers verdient. Is het technisch …

We report the detection of tryptophan at sub-ppb levels for a fluorometer based on Fresnel lenses and low-cost electronics. These fluorometers can be used to detect fecal contamination in drinking water, indicated by tryptophan-like fluorescence.

The flexible strain sensors have been a topic of interest for multiple studies in the past years. These sensors are soft, bendable mechanisms, which can be applied to substrates through printing or other means. They can indicate longitudinal strain through resistance change, which means that they can …

This thesis studies the factors that influence physical distribution structure design. Distribution Structure Design (DSD) concerns the spatial layout of the distribution channel as well as the location(s) of logistics facilities. Despite the frequent treatment of DSD in supply chain handbooks, an empirically …

Covid-19 made us realize that educational practices in higher education must change AND can change. A possible solution for practicing lab work is working in a remote lab: a real lab in which students and the equipment/instruments are physically apart. The concept of printed touchless electronics was …

Limestone is a sedimentary rock that is composed mostly of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Limestone is, among many applications, used as a raw material for the manufacture of quicklime. When limestone is heated, the stone calcinates and quicklime is formed. The primary use of quicklime is in the steel and …

Young pediatric patients who undergo venipuncture or capillary blood sampling often experience high levels of pain and anxiety. This often results in distressed young patients and their parents, increased treatment times, and a higher workload for healthcare professionals. Social robots are a new and …
