The challenge Personal safety is a growing concern in a variety of settings: from high-risk jobs where HSE managers must guarantee workers’ security to the increasingly common work and study choices that drive family and friends far apart, sometimes leading to more isolated lives. In all of these situations, having a system capable of sensing […]
For those aged 65 and over, falls can be one of the most serious health concerns they face either due to lower mobility or decreasing overall coordination. Recognizing this issue, Naveen Kumar set out to produce a wearable fall-detecting device that aims to increase the speed at which this occurs by utilizing a Transformer-based model […]
When a baby cries, it is almost always due to something that is wrong, which could include, among other things, hunger, thirst, stomach pain, or too much noise. In his project, Nurgaliyev Shakhizat demonstrated how he was able to leverage ChatGPT, text-to-audio, and tinyML technologies to build a cry detection system without the need for collecting real-world data […]
Voice commands are a contactless, hands-free, natural way to interact with devices, equipment, and machines of all kinds: no wonder they are increasingly popular! With speech recognition technology advancing faster than you can say “users expect it,” developers often need to find ways to integrate it in their new projects. This, however, requires them to […]
The damage and destruction caused by structure fires to both people and the property itself is immense, which is why accurate and reliable fire detection systems are a must-have. As Nekhil R. notes in his write-up, the current rule-based algorithms and simple sensor configurations can lead to reduced accuracy, thus showing a need for more […]
As part of our ongoing collaboration with K-Way, Justin Lutz set out to integrate intelligent electronics into one of the company’s iconic outdoor jackets. Due to the active lifestyle of the brand, Lutz chose to use the Arduino Nicla Sense ME board to detect gestures while hiking as well as monitor the barometric pressure for potential storms. […]
Released in 2015, the Apple Pencil is a technology-packed stylus that allows users to write on iPad screens with variations in pressure and angle — all while communicating with very low latencies. Nekhil Ravi and Shebin Jose Jacob of Coders Café were inspired by this piece of handheld tech to come up with their own pencil concept, except […]
Ensuring adequate and restful sleep is vital for maintaining good health, as decreases in sleep quality have been proven to cause a whole host of problems. University of Toronto researchers Zongyan Yao and Xilin Liu recognized this vital aspect to well-being and wanted to build an inexpensive device that could classify the various stages of sleep as […]
Nearly every manufacturer uses a machine at some point in their process, and each of those machines is almost guaranteed to contain at least one motor. In order to maintain uptime and efficiency, these motors must always work correctly, as even a small breakdown can lead to disastrous effects. Predictive maintenance aims to achieve this […]
Having something broken into and/or destroyed is an act that most people hope to avoid altogether or at least catch the perpetrator in the act when it does occur. And as Nekhil R. notes in his project write-up, traditional deterrence/detection methods often fail, meaning that a newer type of solution was necessary. Unlike other glass […]
