We introduce NeedForHeat DataGear: an open hardware and open software data collection system designed to accelerate the residential heating transition. NeedForHeat DataGear collects time series monitoring data in homes that have not yet undergone a heating transition, enabling assessment of real-life …

Many ARM Cortex-M-based microcontrollers include tracing features which allow monitoring hardware events (e.g. exceptions occurring, a specific instruction being executed or a specific address range being accessed by the CPU). Tracing enables non-intrusive insight into software execution (i.e. software …

Open source can be a key ingredient for the distribution of technology and has proven successful in software. The idea has also gained interest in the field of hardware over the last two decades; yet its development appears slow. Not only vary tooling, raw materials, standard parts, and manufacturing …

This is the first draft of the large scale 3d printing protocol for granulated thermoplastics. The main purpose of this document is to share the key steps of operating, preparation, data entry, and optimization procedures while handling the robotic 3d printing equipment. One main aspect of this protocol …

The company ‘Mossel Culinair' hopes to increase mussel sales and the company's competitiveness by developing an intelligent and innovative mussel display stand. In 2018 and 2019, Chinese SMU/HZ students designed an incomplete display. In the old prototype, there was no automatic lifting system, no temperature …

This research focuses on some globalillumination techniques from the past several years that are reimplemented for relevant (to the time ofthe research) software - a low-level graphics API, such as DirectX 12, and hardware - a modern GPUwith hardware-accelerated raytracing, such as NVIDIA RTX2060. The …

Safety and Security (S&S) have the same goal, that is to maintain the integrity of human, infrastructure, hardware, software, capital and intangible assets of a system. However, literature and practice indicate that the relationship between S&S has not yet been clearly defined and their boundaries remain …

Digital media allowed for the emergence of new artistic practices and innovative modes of production. In particular, the advent of Internet and digital technologies drastically enhanced the ability for multiple authors to collaborate towards the creation of large-scale collaborative works, which stand …

This survey is about recognizing patterns in the way Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) organize their procurement activities. The scope of the survey is limited to the key commodities of the SME. A key commodity is defined as the purchased product or service group which is essential for realizing the …

Open design appears as one in a row of similar expres - sions of ‘open X’ – open access, open data, open knowl - edge, open hardware – most of which were coined in the early years of this century and modelled after ‘open source’ in software. They denote a departure from presumably ‘closed’ practices …
