Instructions given to novices learning certain tasks of applied navigation often suggest that gazedirection (“line of sight”) should preview the path the operator desires to take (e.g., Bondurant & Blakemore, 1998; Motorcycle Safety Foundation, 1992; Morris, 1990), presumably because looking behavior can ultimately affect steering control through hand, arm, or leg movements that could lead to u...

Introduction Advances in diagnostic imaging have led to remarkable improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic disorders. However, the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic injury remains perplexing. Since the pancreas is a retroperitoneal organ that is narrow and elongated mediolateraly, diagnosing only the presence or absence of injury, let alone its location and extent, is difi...

Driver drowsiness is one of the major causes of serious traffic accidents, which makes this an area of great socioeconomic concern. Continuous monitoring of drivers’ drowsiness thus is of great importance to reduce drowsiness-caused accidents. This proposed research developed a real-time, nonintrusive driver drowsiness detection system by building biosensors on the automobile steering wheel and...

Steering rods are subject to variety kinds of loads which will eventually cause failure. Automobile manufacturers and engineers are seeking ways to test the fatigue life of the steering rods. Steering rods under periodic loads over millions of cycles will get fatigued. We here provide a fatigue test bench for steering rods which applies periodic loads to the rod with a cam loading system. Cyclo...
