Multispectral filter arrays: Recent advances and practical implementation

2014

Thanks to some technical progress in interferencefilter design based on different technologies, we can finally successfully implement the concept of multispectral filter array-based sensors. This article provides the relevant state-of-the-art for multispectral imaging systems and presents the characteristics of the elements of our multispectral sensor as a case study. The spectral characteristics are based on two different spatial arrangements that distribute eight different bandpass filters in the visible and near-infrared area of the spectrum. We demonstrate that the system is viable and evaluate its performance through sensor spectral simulation. Multispectral filter arrays: Recent advan…

Cheap sensor made of multicrystalline silicon for insolation and temperature measurements

2016

In the paper some results on measurement of insolation and „real” cell’s temperature carried out with use of standard silicon solar cells are presented. Two identical cells are applied in such a sensor. Short circuit current of one cell is a direct indication of insolation value and open circuit voltage of the other cell is indirect indication of actual sensor’s temperature but in this case more complex formula must be used for temperature calculation.

Advances in Nanoliposomes Production for Ferrous Sulfate Delivery

2020

In this study, a continuous bench scale apparatus based on microfluidic fluid dynamic principles was used in the production of ferrous sulfate-nanoliposomes for pharmaceutical/nutraceutical applications, optimizing their formulation with respect to the products already present on the market. After an evaluation of its fluid dynamic nature, the simil-microfluidic (SMF) apparatus was first used to study the effects of the adopted process parameters on vesicles dimensional features by using ultrasonic energy to enhance liposomes homogenization. Subsequently, iron-nanoliposomes were produced at different weight ratios of ferrous sulfate to the total formulation components (0.06, 0.035, 0.02, an…

Pēdu sensori gaitas uzraudzībai

2015

Šī bakalaura darba tēma ir „Pēdu sensori gaitas uzraudzībai”. Šī pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot, cik vienkārši vai sarežģīti ir radīt reāli strādājošu produktu, kas spētu noteikt gaitas novirzes no normas, kā arī šāda produkta potenciālu un iespējas. Veiksmīga produkta izveide varētu sekmēt ne tikai medicīnas pakalpojumu izmaksu samazinājumu, bet arī samazinātu rindas, lai saņemtu konkrētos pakalpojumus, kā arī atvieglotu ārstu darbu. Tāpat tas palīdzētu uzlabot informācijas apmaiņu starp pacientu un speciālistu.

Monitoring of stress distribution in damaged small-scale masonry walls by using two innovative sensors

2023

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) represents a strategic solution for the preservation of cultural heritage buildings. Existing masonry structures often suffer reductions in mechanical performances due to physiological aging of material constituents, external actions, and effect of catastrophic natural events. In many cases, the prompt prediction of damage in masonry elements is difficult and it can cause sudden collapses, compromising the safety of people. The proposed experimental study examines the effectiveness of two low-cost and innovative stress sensors, i.e. piezoelectric and capacitive stress sensors, for SHM of masonry structures. To this scope, the sensors were embedded in the m…

Vertikaalihypyn korkeuden arviointi 3D-kiihtyvyysanturilla ja lajinomaisen kuormituksen vaikutukset hyppyyn

2016

Sensoreihin perustuvat menetelmät ovat yleistyneet urheilutestauksessa viime vuosina. Tarkoituksena oli selvittää hyppääjän kenkään kiinnitettävään 3D-kiihtyvyysanturiin perustuvan menetelmän validiteettia vertikaalihypyn korkeuden arvioinnissa. Voimalevyn lentoaikamenetelmää käytettiin kiihtyvyysanturimenetelmän validiteettianalyysissä ja lajikohtaisten kuormitusasetelman vertikaalihypyt arvioitiin kiihtyvyysanturimenetelmällä. Hyppysarjojen korkeimmat hypyt arvioitiin lisäksi voimalevyn lähtönopeusmenetelmällä. Kiihtyvyysanturimenetelmässä käytettiin urheilijan kenkään kiinnitettävää The Stride Sensor Bluetooth® Smart (Polar Electro Oy, Kempele, Suomi) -sensoria. Hyppytestit suoritettiin …

Characterizing a dc-SQUID and a Mo/TiW/Cu -trilayer transition-edge sensor array

2017

Tutkielmassa määritettiin uuden suprajohtavan kvantti-interferenssilaitteen ja 256 pikseliä sisältävän sirun transitioreunailmaisimien ominaisuuksia. Komponentit vaativat erittäin matalia lämpötiloja ja suojauksen suurilta magneettikentiltä muuttuakseen suprajohtaviksi. Tärkeimmät mitatut ominaisuudet olivat suprajohtavan kvantti-interferenssilaitteen signaalin vahvistuskerroin sekä kohina ja transitioreunailmaisimen transitiolämpötila, normaalitilan vastus, virta-jännite-käyttäytyminen, sekä kohina. Motivaationa tutkimukselle oli etsiä käytetyn mittalaite kokonaisuuden herkkyyden rajat sekä pyrkiä sovittamaan teoreettista mallia transitioreunailmaisimen kohinan ymmärtämiseksi. Korkean taaj…

Sensors for the monitoring of analytes in the sweat

In the last decade, can be found an exceptional growth in research activity relating to the development of wearable devices, capable of continuously monitoring the health conditions of the wearer by analyzing body fluids such as blood, urine, saliva, tears and sweat. Among the body fluids available, sweat is a biofluid of particular interest, as it allows a non-invasive, continuous and comfortable collection. Human sweat contains useful information on the health of an individual and therefore is an excellent biofluid for the detection of specific analytes. The most abundant ions in the sweat are Na+ and Cl- (10 - 100 mM), and their monitoring is useful in patients with cystic fibrosis. Othe…
