Many rivers in Indonesia had very poor water clarity due to a mixture of dirt and mud in the  water.  Polluted  rivers were  often  found  in  areas  near  settlements,  where  household  waste that flowing into rivers made the water look dirty and turbid. Pollutants dissolved in water will bind to small …

We report on a first field test in which miniaturized sensor motes were used to explore and inspect an operational pipeline by performing in situ measurements. The spherical sensor motes with a diameter of 39 mm were equipped with an inertial measurement unit (IMU) measuring 3-D acceleration, rotation, …

Dit werk is gericht op 3-D lokalisatie van sensormotes in massale zwermen, uitsluitend gebaseerd op 1-D relatieve afstandsmetingen tussen naburige motes. We richten ons op toepassingen in afgelegen en moeilijk toegankelijke omgevingen zoals de exploratie en het in kaart brengen van de binnenkant van …

This work provides a feasibility study on estimating the 3-D locations of several thousand miniaturized free-floating sensor platforms. The localization is performed on basis of sparse ultrasound range measurements between sensor platforms and without the use of beacons. We show that this task can be …

Ultrasonic Verification is a new method for the monitoring large surface areas of CFRP by ultrasound with few sensors. The echo response of a transmitted pulse through the structure is compared with the response of an earlier obtained reference signal to calculate a fidelity parameter.
