In this paper, we examine the process of designing robot-performed iconic hand gestures in the context of a long-term study into second language tutoring with children of approximately 5 years old. We explore four factors that may relate to their efficacy in supporting second language tutoring: the age …

ABSTRACT Psychopathy in females has been understudied. Extant data on gender comparisons using the predominant measure of assessment in clinical practice, the Psychopathy Checklist Revised (PCL-R), points to a potential lack of measurement invariance (MI). If indeed the instrument does not perform equally …

Retail industry consists of the establishment of selling consumer goods (i.e. technology, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, apparels and accessories, home improvement etc.) and services (i.e. specialty and movies) to customers through multiple channels of distribution including both the traditional …

Out of the urgent need to monitor the status of soil salinization, the Zeeland government and Waterschap Scheldestromen established a salinity monitoring project called salt watcher. This thesis presents a research on the design of an automatic switch system, which is one of the 3 sub-projects of the …

Waterschap Scheldestromen is curious about a 4-electrode conductivity sensor from Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre(imec), which provides a larger working range than Waterschap’s commercial 2-electrode sensor. The project aims to test the performance of this imec sensor, and couple it with Arduino …

Background: The integrated uptake of patient-reported experience measures, using outcomes for the micro, meso and macro level, calls for a successful implementation process which depends on how stakeholders are involved in this process. Currently, the impact of stakeholders on strategies to improve …

Waterschap Scheldestromen has a measurement device named Multiflexmeter. It uses the LoRaWAN technology to send the measurement data to the gateway. But sometimes, the Multiflexmeter can not connect to the gateway to send data because the line of sight is blocked. So the company is seeking a design of …

Point of Care Testing is een innovative stroming binnen de geneeskunde. Aan de hand van een voorbeeld, waarbij het doel is flebitis in een vroeg stadium te kunnen onderkennen, wordt in dit artikel het belang van deze methode toegelicht.

Het objectiveren van de bewegingsuitslag (ROM) in gewrichten is een belangrijk onderdeel binnen de fysiotherapie. Het meest gebruikte valide meetinstrument, de goniometer, is onhandig in het gebruik waardoor vaak gekozen wordt voor een visuele inschatting welke erg onbetrouwbaar is. Smartphones nemen …

Water Authority Zuiderzeeland measures many parameters for the WFD objectives, including electrical conductivity (EC). The EC is measured using various measuring devices, through field measurements (manual), telemetry and since 2019 with relatively inexpensive Internet of Things (IoT)sensors. It is not …
