Abstract Molecular recognition and discrimination of carbohydrates are important because perform essential roles in most living organisms for energy metabolism cell-to-cell communication. Nevertheless, it is difficult to identify or distinguish various carbohydrate molecules owing the lack a significant distinction physical chemical characteristics. Although there has been considerable effort develop sensing platform individual selectively using receptors an ensemble array, their detection...
Detection of gas-phase chemicals finds a wide variety applications, including food and beverages, fragrances, environmental monitoring, chemical biochemical processing, medical diagnostics, transportation.

A motion recognition-based 3D pedestrian navigation system that employs a smartphone is presented. In existing inertial measurement unit (IMU)-based dead-reckoning (PDR) systems, sensor axes are fixed regardless of user motion, because the IMU mounted on shoes or helmet. On other hand, changed according to walking user, usually carried by hand kept in pocket. Therefore, conventional PDR method cannot apply smartphone-based system. To overcome this limitation, status detected using...
