This paper addresses an approach to teaching embedded systems programming through a challenge-based competition involving robots. This pedagogical project distinguishes itself by incorporating international students from three international institutions through the Blended Intensive Program (BIP). The …

In veel zorginstellingen wordt het welzijn van bewoners 's nachts bewaakt met behulp van audio en video. Om meerdere cliënten efficiënt te bewaken vindt er op video en geluidsstromen een met de computer geautomatiseerde voorselectie plaats. Voor geluid vindt deze voorselectie momenteel plaats op basis …

The Global Positioning System has long been a great tool for militaryand, of course, civilianactivities, but the militarys heavy reliance on it also makes it a likely target. Due to the character of the satellite navigation system, security vulnerabilities exist that threaten information continuity and …

Global Navigation Systems, like GPS, are widely used for positioning, timing and many other topics in both the civil and military world. Such a system in an extraordinarily useful utility that is inexpensive to use, but on the other hand, it is a technology that introduces major and often times poorly …

In this article a GPS inspired approach has been developed for TRN systems. The authors investigated whether the acquisition and tracking GPS concept has the potential to be applied in the TRN field with good results. The performance of the proposed system is analyzed using MATLAB simulations.The results …

This article discusses the revival of the interferometric positioning experiment with GPS signals that aims at measuring the three-dimensional vector between two stations. Such an experiment was carried out in the late seventies, the early days of the GPS system, almost simultaneously by two competing …
