So far, very little attention has been paid to the role of autonomic nervous system in augmentative alternative communication solutions. In this regard, pupil near reflex, one component triadic accommodative response a visual plane shift in-depth, may play key role. Such reflex does not necessitate any requirement skeletal muscles, and thus be preserved diseases affecting somatic motoneurons, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. On basis, pupillary response, i.e. constriction far-to-near...

Abstract Despite the many advantages and increasing adoption of Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-EB) additive manufacturing by industry, current PBF-EB systems remain largely unstable prone to unpredictable anomalous behaviours. Additionally, although featuring in-situ process monitoring, show limited capabilities in terms timely identification failures, which may result into considerable wastage production time materials. These aspects are commonly recognized as barriers for industrial...
