A novel wearable for rehabilitation using infrared sensors: A preliminary investigation
In this paper we outline a novel design of a wireless sensor wearable band for tracking patient movements. This technology and design has potential applications for rehabilitation of stroke survivors who suffer from spasticity in their upper extremities. This technology could be used to track patient movement performed in a non-clinical environment, such as inside the comfort of their home. Data on their treatment progress could be transmitted wirelessly both to the clinician and to the patient. This technology could help realize increased monitoring of the patient, quantitative data on patient improvement over time and decreased health care costs. In this paper we demonstrated a preliminary prototype which can track and distinguish classes of movement of a user performing elbow flexion exercises while seated at a table. A study was completed with 6 participants with classification accuracies up to 88%
PORTI E TRASPORTI MARITTIMI: LE SFIDE DELLA TRANSIZIONE ENERGETICA E DIGITALE E LA RIORGANIZZAZIONE DELLE FILIERE LOGISTICHE
La sessione “Porti e trasporti marittimi: le sfide della transizione energetica e digitale e la riorganizzazione delle filiere logistiche” si è proposta di indagare con approccio critico e multidimensionale il ruolo sempre più centrale dei porti e del trasporto marittimo all’interno delle grandi transizioni in atto – energetica, digitale e geopolitica – che stanno ridefinendo in profondità le strutture e le dinamiche delle reti di scambio, tanto su scala globale quanto regionale e locale. Da semplici snodi funzionali alla circolazione delle merci, le infrastrutture portuali si configurano oggi come veri e propri dispositivi territoriali complessi, chiamati a rispondere a sfide sistemiche che coinvolgono sostenibilità ambientale, innovazione tecnologica, resilienza infrastrutturale e nuove logiche geo-economiche. In un contesto globale attraversato da profondi mutamenti, tra cui il cambiamento climatico, l’innalzamento del livello dei mari, l’intensificazione degli eventi metereologici estremi e l’instabilità geopolitica, i porti si trovano a dover riconfigurare non solo le proprie fun- zioni operative, ma anche il proprio rapporto con i territori e le reti logistiche di riferimento
A fabric-based wearable band for hand gesture recognition based on filament strain sensors: A preliminary investigation
A novel fully wearable system based on a smart wristband equipped with stretchable strain gauge sensors and readout electronics have been assembled and tested to detect a set of movements of a hand crucial in rehabilitation procedures. The high sensitivity of the active devices embedded on the wristband do not need a direct contact with the skin, thus maximizing the comfort on the arm of the tester. The gestures done with the device have been auto-labeled by comparing the signals detected in real-Time by the sensors with a commercial infrared device (Leap motion). Finally, the system has been evaluated with two machine-learning algorithms Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Support Vector Machine (SVM), reaching a reproducibility of 98% and 94%, respectively
Intelligenza Artificiale e turismo nell’indagine geografica: una review della letteratura scientifica
The paper presents the results of a qualitative-quantitative research aimed at exploring at a global scale, through a scoping review, publications on the application of AI in tourism territories. The aim of this study was to verify the interactions between AI and tourism through the analysis of keywords that emerged in the literature reviewed. The geographic location of authors' affiliation centers was also considered in order to detect central and peripheral nodes of research centers in the global network
