background: this study aimed to compare the effects of simultaneous eight-week stretching and strengthening trainings and exercises with core stability exercises on the flat foot deformity of female students with the age ranges from 9 to 13 years.   methods and materials: in the present quasi-experimental study on 130 female students, 60 girls with flat feet and the age ranges from 9 to 13,were...

We have developed AR-Navi, an in-vehicle navigation system that captures real-time video via an in-vehicle camera and overlays guidance on a video display. In this study, we conducted a driving experiment to evaluate the location-adjustment-method of AR-Navi. We also discuss the registration accuracy of the route guidance that AR-Navi gives at intersections.

This paper introduces novel ways of improving awareness and reflection through visualizations of badges as an abstraction of learning analytics data. We report initial findings with both a personal dashboard approach, Navi Badgeboard, that provides details on student and class progress, and a collaborative, interactive tabletop visualization, Navi Surface, to promote group reflection. We evalua...

A new human and robot interface tool, so-called Navi-Guider, which makes it easy to handle mobile robots, is presented in this paper. The Navi-Guider is easily mounted on a mobile robot and is able to detect a length and a direction of the tether pulled out by a user. Those detected factors are utilized for the robot guidance and control. This paper addresses detailed hardware and software arch...

In this paper we propose AR-Navi, an in-vehicle navigation system that uses video-based augmented reality technology. AR-Navi includes an invehicle camera, which captures real-time video, and displays the guidance which overlays the video display. To solve several problems that arise when real-time video is used, we propose registration adjustment based on recognizing crosswalks and filtering i...

Navigation Assistance for Visually Impaired (NAVI) is a vision substitute system designed to assist blind people for autonomous navigation. NAVI working concept is based on ‘image to sound’ conversion. The vision sensor, which is mounted on a sunglass, captures the image infront of blind user. NAVI processing unit processes the captured image and enhances the significant vision data by employin...

BACKGROUND The image qualities of coronary 64-multidetector-row computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in patients with atrial fibrillation (Afib) are often not enough. This study clarifies how to use electrocardiogram (ECG) -editing in Afib. METHODS We performed CCTA (Aquilion 64 with beam pitch: 0.125, 0.35 s/r) in 33 patients (M/F=24/9, age: 71±9 yr, mean heart rate: 71±12 bpm) with Afib. ...
