This work describes the design, implementation and validation of an autonomous gas leakage inspection robot. Navigation with centimeter level accuracy is achieved using RTK GNSS integrated using the ROS 2 and Nav2 frameworks. The proposed solution has been validated successfully in terms of navigation …

RTK-GNSS (Real Time Kinematic - Global Navigation Satellite System) is based on a ‘rover’ GNSS antenna that receives error correction information from a ‘base’ GNSS antenna. While the rover can be placed on a robot to move around, the base station has the additional ‘knowledge’ of being stationary. …

Background It can be very challenging for practitioners to talk with autistic children, especially when the conversation calls for self-regulation. Self-regulation is inextricably linked to awareness of oneself and others in social contexts. Encouraging the need for autonomy could help increase self-awareness …

AT-LAB 1 creates an interactive sound and light installation with real-time health data. This case study probes the artist's dynamic role in interdisciplinary collaboration. It navigates the intricate project layers, exploring how diverse knowledge production aligns with outreach goals.

In de huidige landbouwsector worden grote hoeveelheden gewasbeschermingsmiddelen gebruikt, wat leidt tot hoge kosten voor telers. De verwachte aanscherping van wetgeving dwingt de industrie om efficiëntere spuitmethoden te onderzoeken. Een veelbelovende oplossing is het implementeren van precisiespuiten, …

This research investigates Aeolian sand transport in the dynamic dune area of Kop van Schouwen Meeuwenduinen, Netherlands. Despite previous studies, many aspects of sand transport in this region remain unexplored. This study aims to provide new insights into sand erosion and transport dynamics. Two …

Dealing with and maintaining high-quality standards in the design and construction phases is challenging, especially for on-site construction. Issues like improper implementation of building components and poor communication can widen the gap between design specifications and actual conditions. To prevent …

Data collection is crucial in modern automotive engineering. Yet, the focus on technological development often overlooks legal, ethical, and privacy aspects. This feasibility study aims to bridge this knowledge gap for SMEs and research entities by examining the technical, legal, and ethical aspects …

With this contribution, the results of the measurement campaign performed with a synchronously distributed antenna array testbed operating at the center frequency of 3.686 GHz are presented. For the first time, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, the electric field distribution indu ced by coherent …

The decomposition of a body is influenced by burial conditions, making it crucial to understand the impact of different conditions for accurate grave detection. Geophysical techniques using drones have gained popularity in locating clandestine graves, offering non-invasive methods for detecting surface …
