Assistive robotic arms have become popular to help users with upper limb disabilities achieve autonomy in their daily tasks, such as drinking and grasping objects general. Usually, these are controlled an adapted joystick. Joysticks user-friendly when it comes a general approach object. However, they not intuitive having accurately object, especially obstacles present. Alternatively, the combined use of artificial stereovision eye-tracking seems be promising solution, user's vision is...
Development of mechatronic products is traditionally carried out by several design experts from different domains. Performing development thus greatly challenging. In order to tackle this, the critical challenges in mechatronics have be well understood and supported through applicable methods tools. This paper aims at identifying major challenges, conducting a systematic thorough survey most relevant research work design. Solutions proposed literature are assessed illustrated case study...
Abstract Defining the aesthetic and emotional value of a product is an important consideration for its design. Furthermore, if several designers are faced with task creating object that describes certain emotion/perception (aggressive, soft, heavy, etc.), each most likely to interpret different shapes composed set geometric features. The authors propose automatic approach formalize relationships between information three-dimensional objects intended content using fuzzy logic. In addition,...

Digital manufacturing technology promotes the application of digital information to processes and machine tools. However, high entry cost complexity existing offerings limit wide in small medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). For CNC tools, precision parameters can be acquired either by a visual inspection operator or third-party connection software hardware. To decrease human error, time data recording, this research proposes tool acquisition process for monitoring purposes using novel system...
Most affordable eye tracking systems use either intrusive setup such as head-mounted cameras or fixed with infrared corneal reflections via illuminators. In the case of assistive technologies, using can be a burden to wear for extended periods time and based solutions generally do not work in all environments, especially outside inside if sunlight reaches space. Therefore, we propose an eye-tracking solution state-of-the-art convolutional neural network face alignment algorithms that is both...
