The European common cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis) makes use of undulatory locomotion through its lateral fins. This type of locomotion shows good potential for application for underwater vehicle thrust because it gives the user advantages like maneuverability, stable station keeping, and energy efficiency. …

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 …

The flexible strain sensors have been a topic of interest for multiple studies in the past years. These sensors are soft, bendable mechanisms, which can be applied to substrates through printing or other means. They can indicate longitudinal strain through resistance change, which means that they can …

In this graduation project, GreenTech Labs want to create a crop-weed-removal robot-arm. However, they want to achieve this using modern tools, with a system that can help them automate and simplify the process of training custom robot arms like this. The student who was assigned to this project had …

Het onderwerp van dit onderzoek is het realiseren van een vroegtijdige detectie van mastitis bij melkkoeien op bedrijven waar de koeien gemolken worden met een melkrobot. Vroegtijdige detectie verlaagt de kosten van gezondheidsproblemen en het speelt een belangrijke rol in het vervullen van de behoeftes …

Research was conducted to enable remote control of a humanoid robotic arm using movements of the human arm. Several options for the measurement technique have been discussed, resulting in a proposal for usage of MARG sensor modules to measure human arm movement. The InvenSense MPU9250 sensors where used, …

By studying the population pyramid of the Netherlands, two notable trends can be observed: the increase in 'grey pressure ' (population 65 and older, the upcoming 'baby boom generation ') and the decrease in the number of babies born. These trends are noticeable in the spectrum of care, where the population …

This thesis project ‘’Novel polymer-composite artificial muscles: designing, production & testing’’ has been conducted to fulfill the graduation requirements for the Bachelor of Science in Process & Food Technology (PFT). The project is a continuation of the research done by Haines et al (21 Feb 2014, …

Het doel van de afstudeeropdracht is het realiseren van een order verzamel (‘orderpicken’) systeem en bijbehorende software, dat geautomatiseerd door de gebruiker ingevoerde order groente en fruit verplaatst. Om het project in goede banen te leiden is het project opgedeeld in drie fases: • Fase 1: Ontwikkeling …
