lectrospray (ES) thrusters are unique in their ability to emit both positive and negative beams, each contributing similarly to thrust. Spacecraft charging could be prevented without a dedicated neutralizer if currents of simultaneously emitted opposing po ...
The cerebellum is thought to help detect and correct errors between intended and executed commands(1,2) and is critical for social behaviours, cognition and emotion 3 Computations for motor control must be performed quicklyto correct errors in real time an ...
The Pollution Detection Algorithm (PDA) is an algorithm to identify and flag periods of primary polluted data in remote atmospheric time series in five steps. The first and most important step identifies polluted periods based on the gradient (time-derivat ...
Voice communication is the main channel to exchange information between pilots and Air-Traffic Controllers (ATCos). Recently, several projects have explored the employment of speech recognition technology to automatically extract spoken key information suc ...
Roombots (RB) are self-reconfigurable modular robots designed to study robotic reconfiguration on a structured grid and adaptive locomotion off grid. One of the main goals of this platform is to create adaptive furniture inside living spaces such as homes ...
Programmable matter is a material that produces
distinctive shapes or patterns according to a given command.
Often they are composed of interconnected modular elements
that are able to make or break the connections or alter
relative orientation. We pre ...
The last decades have seen the most important improvements of the safety on the road. But most of the accidents are still coming from the driver when a source of danger is not noticed or when the reaction is not correct during an unusual situation. Two way ...
Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) aim at offering an interaction modality for people with severe motor disabilities. Despite promising advances, BCIs are still confronted with multiple challenges in determining user's intentions reliably, mainly due to high ...
