The sense of touch (haptics) has been applied in several areas such as tele-haptics, tele-medicine, training, education, and entertainment. As today, haptics is used explored by researchers many more multi-disciplinary inter-disciplinary areas. utilization also enhanced with other forms media audio, video, even smell. For example, the use prevalent virtual reality environments to increase immersive experience for users. However, while there significant progress within haptic interfaces...

Most of the reported three-dimensional chemical plume tracing methods use stereo sensing method to determine next step direction. For example, multiple sensors are used for detection in left, right, up and down directions. Left right detections feasible sniffing; unfortunately, same approach is infeasible up/down quadrotor platforms because propellers continuously draw air from top bring it down, which affects upper lower sensors, fails subsequent Therefore, surging stage ineffective...

Haptic information originates from a different human sense (touch), therefore the quality of service (QoS) required to support haptic traffic is significantly that used conventional real‐time such as voice or video. Each type network impairment has (and severe) impacts on user′s experience. There been no specific provision QoS parameters for interaction. Previous research into distributed virtual environments (DHVEs) have concentrated synchronization positions (haptic device objects), and...

DeAuthentication Denial of Service attacks in Public Access WiFi operate by exploiting the lack authentication management frames 802.11 protocol. Detection these rely almost exclusively on selection appropriate thresholds. In this work authors demonstrate that there are additional, previously unconsidered, metrics which also influence DoS detection performance. A method systematically tuning to optimal values is proposed ensures parameter choices repeatable and verifiable.

Abstract Visually impaired (VI) people encounter difficulties in their regular activities including learning. Providing them equal opportunity is crucial, especially virtual learning environment (VLE), as limited applications are available. A variety of technology-assisted and non-technology-assisted tools available for the VI to assist daily activities. However, learners do not use due rich media involvement, which unsuitable them. Haptic or sense touch one technologies useful VLE learners....
