Mobile platform

What are appropriate uses of mobile platforms for monitoring ... 

The experimental device for photometric measurements is shown schematically in Fig. 7. The device includes a measuring box (1) in which a mobile platform (2) is situated with two windows (3), into which plates (3 ) are inserted, each plate having 9 holes with paper matrixes.

Electrochemical measurements can be readily adapted for on-line monitoring. An electrochemical detector uses the electrochemical properties of target analytes for their determination in a flowing stream. An electrochemical flow system, based on an SWV operation at a carbon-fiber-based detector, for use in the on-line continuous monitoring of trace TNT in marine environments was developed [16]. Such flow detector offers selective measurements of sub-part-per-million concentrations of TNT in untreated natural water samples with a detection limit of 25ppb. It responds rapidly to sudden changes in the TNT concentration with no apparent carryover. About 600 runs can be made every hour with high reproducibility and stability (e.g., relative standard deviation (RSD) = 2.3%, n = 40). The system lends itself to full automation and to possible deployment onto various stationary mobile platforms (e.g., buoys and underwater vehicles).

FX2 (C67C68013), which integrates the USB 2.0 transceiver, serial interface engine (SIE), enhanced 8051 microcontroller, and a programmable peripheral interface into a single chip. This is a very cost-effective solution that shortens development time and provides a small foot print for use in a mobile platform. Although not important in this application, the FX2 can be operated at the maximum USB 2.0 data rate of 45 Mbytes/s. The 8051 microcontroller nms software that can be downloaded to an internal RAM via the USB or from an EPROM (Atmel 240164). Additionally, the 8051 microcontroller has three high speed coimter/timers, which provide data acquisition and control of various components as discussed below. 

Very fast sensors. By mounting such sensors on mobile platforms and moving them to sample over a range of space and time, it would be possible to understand how a system is actually responding. 

Mobile Platform with Fast Sensors (Process Studies)... 

Over the past 15 years, the atmospheric science community has developed a series of mobile platforms with highly accurate and specific fast response instrumentation that have revolutionized atmospheric chemistry field measurements. These include high-altitude aircraft, such as NASA s ER-2 and WB-57, and lower-altitude aircraft like the NASA DC-8, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and Center for Interdisciplinary Remotely-Piloted Aircraft Studies (CIRPAS) (Naval Postgraduate School) Twin Otters, the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) C-130, and the DOE Gl. In addition, mobile surface laboratories are now being used for a wide variety of urban and regional air quality and emission source characterization studies.4 Typical configurations for the ER-2 and the mobile laboratory are shown in Figures 1 and 2. 

Waveguide cells exhibit a broad bandwidth and consequently find favour in the spectroscopic study of molecules. They are, however, too large for any sort of process analysis or for use on mobile platforms and suffer badly from memory effects due to their high surface area to volume ratio. Whilst not dismissing their importance to the subject in general we have focused on the more compact cavity spectrometers in this work.

In recent years the trend for software to be moved to mobile platforms has opened up opportunities for commodity applications which monitor our well-being and provide health advice. Many hundreds of these now exist and range from carefully designed medical devices capable of monitoring complex medical conditions to poorly crafted programs offering little more than quackery. 

Data delivery failure relates to any set of circumstances where data is known to be present in the system but, for whatever reason, the system fails to display it to the user. This could occur as a result of a screen rendering issue or the failure of a report to execute. Some situations can be very subtle and difficult to detect. For example, a system intended to chart vital signs could have a confusing scale, be too small to interpret or fail to display correctly on a mobile platform. 

Evaluators should particularly be on the lookout for defects which might have only been spotted once but could affect large parts of the system. For example, suppose a tester notes that the Okay and Cancel buttons are too small to be used on a mobile platform, this single conunent could represent an endemic problem across the entire solution and should be prioritised accordingly.

There have been numerous achievements in the area of assistive robots including robotic arm supports and exoskeletons, meal assistance devices, robotic wheelchairs and mobile platforms, and wearable walking assistance robots. Among the achievements, this subsection introduces recently published research and commercially available products. The assistive robots are classified by the prescribed three criteria—assistance type, form, and intention recognition method—as listed in Table 2. 

Individual agent detection instruments have limited utility, especially outside a laboratory. To be fully useful, field instruments need to be integrated into a suite of instruments and deployed as a measurement system with automated sample acquisition, instrument control and data acquisition, quality assurance, analysis, transmission and archiving capabilities. Laboratory instruments may not need to be as fully integrated. Agent-detection instrument suites may be deployed at fixed sites or on mobile platforms, including ground vehicles, ships, and piloted or unmanned aircraft.

Mobile health (mHealth) is an emerging concept which refers to the combinational use of mobile computing, communication technologies, and medical sensors for healthcare [1]. In addition to the passive provision of health-related information via mobile platforms, its scope also extends to more active applications such as disease management, medical prognosis, diagnosis, and even treatment. A typical mHealth system is characterized by its features of mobility, wireless connectivity, location independence, and timely response— which together provide seamless and personalized healthcare.

STATPack mobile was designed to be a thin-client application and when appropriate the existing code was used. By using the existing server code as much as possible, the development time was minimized and process consistency between the two systems was preserved. By extending the server code to the mobile platform, fhe developmenf feam was able to optimize their time and avoid introduction of new bugs or errors thaf would have required additional resources and time to fix. The functionalify for the STATPack mobile system was prioritized based on the previous information from the requirements ...

QR code can be quickly decoded on virtually any computing device that connects to the Internet. At the moment, apart from normal desktop and laptop computers, most mobile phones have built-in cameras that can read the QR code, decode it with free software inside the phone, and then either link them to a Web site, or store the entire business information somewhere in a server (Lorchirachoonku and Mo 2010). Typical mobile platforms such as Apple iPhone and Nokia phones have been proved to work seamlessly with this code. Hence, to virtualize the identification system using QR code, a mobile phone with camera scans and decodes the image which can then link to URLs or a global information server is needed.
