Abstract Design principles of a novel Multifunctional Operation Station (MOS) using Augmented Reality (AR) technology (MOSAR) are proposed in this paper. ARbased design allows more ergonomic remote instrument control in real time in contrast to classical instrument-centered interfaces. Another advantage is its hierarchical software structure including multiple programming interpreters. The MOSAR approach is illustrated with a remote surgical operating station that controls intelligent surgical instruments. The implementation of the Operation Station (MOS) is based on the multiplatform open-source library Tcl/Tk, and an AR extension has been developed on a Unity platform, using Vuforia SDK.

Abstract The paper describes the design, implementation and test results of a three-channel laser diode driver intended for use in multimedia laser projectors. Our development goals were to create a compact and power-efficient driver, which achieves good color mixing and supports high modulation frequencies. It is compatible with most laser diode configurations used in multimedia laser projectors with a total optical output power of several watts. The driver is equipped with three protected signal modulation inputs. It needs a single regulated power supply between 9V and 18V and controls up to three cooling fans intended for the thermal management of the laser diodes. Our initial tests show that the driver works very well and is suitable for the long-term operation in projector systems. In the future, we plan to perform more tests on the signal feedback for various input signal combinations, which should result in optimizations of the feedback configuration and improvements of the modulation response of the driver.

Abstract The sensor networks in now days are facing the additional requirement to provide the functionality to collect, analyze and integrate the sensor data, i.e. to acts as intelligent sensor networks, in addition to the typical transmission and routing functions. The energy minimization at a fixed level performance is very important in wireless sensor nodes which are mainly battery powered. Therefore the understanding of the energy consumption characteristics of each sensor node is critical for the design of energy saving monitoring strategies. The Low Power Wireless Sensor Networks (LPWSN) which are a matter of the current research are applied

in many domains, such as ecological and environmental monitoring, traffic management, military applications and etc. The right and realistic model and an adequate simulation of wireless sensor networks is a key step in the sensor networks architecture design which can reduce sensitively the development cost and time. This paper develops a model of LPWSN based on Generalized Nets to evaluate the energy consumption of Wireless Sensor Nodes. The proposed model factors important components of a typical sensor node, including SoC(System on Chip) microcontrollers with energy-saving features, wireless frontend components, and low power sensor modules. A Markov chain model of the same network with the same input data was realized as a benchmark. Both models were simulated in WSNet simulator. The output experimental results show that the GN model is more flexible and accurate than the Markov Chain model and provides a useful simulation platform to study energy-saving strategies.

Abstract. The main goal of the work is design of a compact, convenient, simplified, better possibilities and suitable for different application Multifunctional Operating Station.

In this publication, a method for the design of an operating station based on Tcl/Tk is presented. A portable open source programming platform is used that is implemented for different operating systems (Windows, Unix, Linux, Solaris, Android).

Three possible approaches to building an operating station are illustrated - Classic approach, "Multi-interpreter" realization using a number of TCL interpreters; “Multi- threaded" mode.

The approaches are illustrated by presenting an implementation of an operating station for a wireless control system for a group of intelligent instruments, which are designed for SCADA Ignition applications. Unlike other software platforms the presented operation station based on Tcl/Tk possesses some advantages main of which is that the language model assumes the use of hierarchical structures including more than one interpreter, each of which having their own set of operators and addressing space. Tcl/Tk based applications are presented.

Abstract. In this paper, we present our new design of a thermoelectric cooling driver for laser projection systems. It is a reliable, effective cooling solution for semiconductor laser diodes that are used instead of traditional displays or projectors when higher brightness or contrast is required. Typical applications are multimedia shows, quality improvement in production facilities or marketing in public areas. The laser animations usually require rapid changes in the output power that are difficult to predict. Our driver is capable of reacting to them by actively pumping the excess power generated by the diodes into the main heatsink of the system. The heat transfer speed is regulated by the driver in real time to maintain an optimum working temperature.

Abstract. The aim of the article is to investigate the potential of honey discrimination (on the base of its botanical origins) by UV-Vis spectroscopy and subsequent statistical cluster analysis. Thirty-six samples from three types of honey (acacia, linden, and honeydew) are measured by a spectrophotometer “Cary100” with recorded wavelength range of 190~900 nm for calibration of honey classifier. Firstly, principal components analysis (PCA) is used for reducing the number of inputs (wavelengths) and a proper visualization of the experimental results. Next, the first two principal components (PCs) are combined separately with Naïve Bayes classification (NBC) and k-means clustering (KMC) to develop PC-NBC and PC-KMC models. The high accuracy of the proposed honey classifiers is confirmed by leave-one-out cross-validation test conducted in MATLAB environment.

Abstract. The parallel sensor data integration processing in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is one of the possible solutions to reduce the neighbor sensor node’s communication and to save energy. At the same time, the process of local sensor node integration needs an additional processor and energy resources. Therefore the development of a realistic and reliable model of data integration processes in WSNs is critical in many aspects. The paper presents a new method for modeling and simulation of sensor data integration parallel processing in WSNs. The proposed method use modeling based on the Generalized Nets (GN) approach which is an advanced way of parallel data processing and analysis of Wireless Sensor Systems (WSS). For simulation and analysis tool is used the WSNet simulator. The proposed GN based model covers most of the aspects of the parallel sensor data integration in the WSN’s, based on 802.15.4 protocols.

Abstract: In this paper, we present the design of a compact laser system for animation projections both indoors and outdoors. Our focus is on the hardware and software aspects of the electronic control of the system from the design phase to the experimental tests and evaluations. The main purpose behind our development efforts is the creation of an affordable laser system for research, entertainment and marketing purposes using contemporary advances in electronics, software development, semiconductor laser diodes and optics. The system is “smart” in the sense that it connects to other devices and the Internet via a WiFi network, so that in addition to doing standalone laser projections, it also has remote control and remote debugging capabilities. Via its two embedded microcontrollers, the system offers an easy integration into an existing Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure. The experimental results are very promising and bring us closer to creating a viable product from both a technological and an economic standpoint.

Abstract. Good laboratory practice requires laboratories to ensure the quality of analyzes and assess the extent of human exposure to different chemicals and reagents. The subject of research and analysis are data from measurement of samples between two laboratories, by two different methods, in the processing of ore in the “Elatsite“ mine complex. Of particular importance is the reliable measurement of the products (concentrations) from the flotation process (content of copper in the ore, intermediate products, concentrate and waste) as well as the production of molybdenum (feed, concentrate and waste). As a result of the sampling and depending on the characteristic to be determined and the test method, the concentration of the identifiable element is measured differently and with different technical means. The statistical analysis of data of parallel measurements from two or three laboratories involves calculating a linear or rank correlation and analyzing how significant the influence of a laboratory factor is, as well as studying and modeling the relationship between the presence of chemical elements in the ore, waste and concentrate in the process of laboratory control.

Abstract. ZigBee based Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are a reliable and adaptive solution for environment level monitoring. In this paper, we use QoS technique for energy optimization of the existing ZigBee communication protocol. The proposed new method and algorithm uses a combination of the embedded in the ZigBee wireless nodes Link Quality Indicator (LQI) and Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) as critical parameters. The proposed algorithm is specifically tailored to be a stateless, localized algorithm with minimal control overhead. A real wireless node transmission experiments and analysis are provided to validate our claims.
