A preliminary study of Patient Lifting Robot for Nurse assistance
(Kolej Universiti Kejuruteraan Utara Malaysia, 2005-05-14)
The advancement in technology and medicine has indeed tremendously improved the medical treatment, health and hospital care. In spite of that, the increasing rate of patients being admitted into hospitals and health care ...
A Support system for visually impaired persons to understand environmental information using Acoustic Interface
(Kolej Universiti Kejuruteraan Utara Malaysia, 2005-05-14)
Visually impaired find their navigation difficult as they often lack the needed
information for bypassing obstacles and hazards. Electronic Travel Aids (ETAs) are devices that use sensor technology to assist and improve ...
Conceptual view of Pneumatic Artificial Muscle
(Kolej Universiti Kejuruteraan Utara Malaysia, 2005-05-14)
The intention of this article is to introduce and overview Pneumatic Artificial
Muscles (PAMs). The construction of PAMS mainly consist of flexible, inflatable membranes, having orthotropic material behaviour. The main ...
Homogeneous and Non-homogeneous media indentification and circuitry design of multiphase Ultrasonic Tomography
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2009-10-11)
Multiphase flow characterization is an important task for monitoring, measuring or controlling industrial processes. This can be done by means of process tomography. The use of tomographic techniques has been used within ...
Face Emotion Recognition - A survey
(Oita University, 2006-01-23)
The facial emotion is playing a vital role in visual communication system. The vision system is being integrated to the robot to recognize the facial gestures or emotion. The integration of the vision system and EMG sensors ...
Development of a personified face emotion recognition technique using fitness function
(Springer Japan, 2007-08-10)
In this article, two subjects, one South East Asian (SEA) and the other Japanese, are considered for face emotion recognition using a genetic algorithm (GA). The parameters relating the face emotions in each case are ...
Prediction of classroom speech clarity using backpropagation neural network
(Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, 2007-11-27)
A classroom's acoustic design should be constructed so that the highest possible degree of speech intelligibility is achieved for teachers and students. In achieving the highest possible speech intelligibility, the acoustical ...
Stereo Sensors-based Object Segmentation and Location for a Bin Picking Adept SCARA Robot
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2007)
In this paper we present a stereo vision system for segmentation of partially occluded objects and computation of object grasping point in bin picking environments. The stereo vision system was interfaced with an Adept ...
Analysis of classroom speech intelligibility using fuzzy linear regression model
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2006)
Speech is defined as a process of producing sounds confirming to an accepted code by the human vocal apparatus. These sounds are perceived by the ear-brain system with the primary purpose of conveying thoughts. The ...
Prediction of psychoacoustic parameters using radial basic functions neural network
(Karpagam College of Engineering, 2008-02-01)
The ability of human listeners to estimate psychoacoustic parameters from the speakers speech levels at different listener's positions in a classroom is an interesting and not yet thoroughly examined phenomenon. The goal ...
