Abstract Keeping the pressure of automobile tire in normal working range is an important guarantee for safety automobile. When leaks, driver should be reminded to check or replace before potential danger blowing out. Aiming at problem commercial vehicle driving, a set monitoring alarm systems designed by combining radius method and frequency method. The magneto-electric wheel speed sensor used ...

introduction blood pressure (bp) is one of the important vital signs that need to be monitored for personal healthcare. arterial blood pressure is estimated from pulse transit time (ptt). this study uses two pulse sensors to get ptt. the aim of this study was to construct an optical system and to monitor blood pressure continuously and without cuff in people with different ages. materials and m...

The linear association between two continuous quantities is often assessed in terms of Pearson’s correlation coefficient, r. However, if the data are not homogeneous, i.e., consist of groups, then it is important to decompose r into components that measure the correlation within the groups, and the correlation between the groups. We point out the importance of examining these components, and pr...

The MEMS pressure sensor has been introduced and presented in this paper. The types of pressure sensor and its theory of operation are also included. The latest MEMS technology, the fabrication processes of pressure sensor are explored and discussed. Besides, various device applications of pressure sensor such as tire pressure-monitoring system, diesel particulate filter and others are explaine...

The process of determining which disease or condition explains a person’s symptoms and signs can be very complicated and may be inaccurate in some cases. The general belief is that diagnosing diseases relies on doctors’ keen intuition, rich experience and professional equipment. In this work, we employ ideas from recent advances in plantar pressure research and from the powerful capacity of the...

Telemonitoring makes possible to remotely assess health status and quality of life of individuals. By acquiring heterogeneous data coming from sensors (physiological, biometric, environmental; non-invasive, adaptive and transparent to user) and data coming from other sources to become aware of user context; by inferring user behaviour and detecting anomalies from this data; and by providing ela...

and Introduction

The widely accepted cut-point for normal blood pressure (BP) in the office setting evolved over several decades, based on data derived from a variety of sources. The Actuarial Society of America was one of the first organizations to publish BP data on thousands of community residents, followed by other classic studies such as Framingham, Western Electric Company, Kaiser Permanente, and the Mult...
