FLORABEAR This paper presents the design and demonstration of a novel harmonic transponder sensor (HTS) that can measure the position and motion of a target in noisy and reflective indoor environments.In conventional HTS implementation, an impedance mismatch at the input or output can occur because of the impedance variation of the input or output
OBJECTIVE: to meta-analyze studies that have assessed the medication errors rate in pediatric patients during prescribing, dispensing, and drug administration.SOURCES: searches were performed in the PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Trip databases, selecting articles published in English from 2001 to 2010.SUMMARY OF THE FINDINGS: a total of 25 original
Identifying genetic variations or treatments that confer greater resistance to drought is paramount to ensuring sustainable crop productivity.Accurate and reproducible measurement of drought stress symptoms can be achieved via automated, image-based phenotyping.Many phenotyping Test platforms are either cost-prohibitive, require specific technical
Objectives/Goals: Discriminatory experiences within healthcare settings significantly hinder equitable health access for sexual minority groups (SMPs) in the USA.These discriminatory experiences can manifest in various forms (e.g., refusal of care).We aimed to explore different types of discrimination encountered by SMPs in the healthcare settings.
In domestic robotics, passing through narrow areas becomes critical for safe and effective robot navigation.Due to factors like sensor noise or miscalibration, even if the free space is sufficient for the robot to pass through, it may not see enough clearance to navigate, hence limiting its operational space.An approach to facing this is to insert
