A rail-guided robotic system is currently being designed for the inspection of ballast water tanks in ships. This robotic system will manipulate sensors toward the interior walls of the tank. In this paper, the influence of rail compliance on the end-effector position error due to ship movement is investigated. …

Background: G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are involved in many different physiological processes and their function can be modulated by small molecules which bind in the transmembrane (TM) domain. Because of their structural and sequence conservation, the TM domains are often used in bioinformatics …

Abstract: Unlike manufacturing technology for semiconductors and printed circuit boards, the market for traditional micro assembly lacks a clear public roadmap. More agile manufacturing strategies are needed in an environment in which dealing with change becomes a rule instead of an exception. In this …

In opdracht van Philips Applied Technologies werd tijdens het Simplicity event het concept 'Living Scenes' gepresenteerd. Living Scenes gaf weer hoe verlichting in een hotelkamer een andere dimensie kreeg. De verlichting werd naar eigen gevoel en wens geregeld door een hotelgast. Op deze manier kunnen …
