A practical and flexible eID should be usable in both a network-connected online setting as well as in conventional offline situations. While improving security of communication and enhancing access control to resources, eID schemes also have the potential to become a serious negative factor on user privacy rights. This paper discusses the specific issue of privacy protection in eID systems and considers a range of solutions that could be implemented in a privacy-enhanced eID system featuring both data access and data management.","PeriodicalId":144722,"journal":{"name":"2009 Innovative Technologies in Intelligent Systems and Industrial Applications","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127355354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A nonlinear overhead gantry crane system is considered and the dynamic model of the system is derived using the Euler-Lagrange formulation. To study the effectiveness of the controllers, initially a PD-type Fuzzy Logic Control is developed for cart position control of gantry crane. This is then extended to incorporate input shaper control schemes for anti-sway control of the system. The positive and modified specified negative amplitude (SNA) input shapers with the derivative effects respectively are designed based on the properties of the system. Simulation results of the response of the system with the controllers are presented in time and frequency domains. The performances of the control schemes are examined in terms of level of input tracking capability, swing angle reduction, time response specifications and robustness to parameters uncertainty in comparison to the PD-type Fuzzy Logic control. Finally, a comparative assessment of the amplitude polarities of the input shapers to the system performance is presented and discussed.","PeriodicalId":144722,"journal":{"name":"2009 Innovative Technologies in Intelligent Systems and Industrial Applications","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131217370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The model of the ozone chamber is developed using the RLC circuit. This basic RLC resonance tank circuit is used to determine the resonance frequency for inverter as a power supply to ozone chamber. It is also investigated the use of class E resonant when it is operated below resonant converter and act as pulse converter to supply the ozone chamber. As the result, the class E resonant converter has successfully produced maximum 2.8 kVpp, 8.66 kHz as resonant converter consumed of 8.74 Watt to produce 11,300 µg/m3 ozone.

Undergoing continuous balance training regimens with the aid of biofeedback systems have proven to be able to effectively augment postural stability. A variety of feedback modalities are available ranging from audio signaling, visual indications, tactile cueing, etc, and their suitability relates to the nature of the application. This paper presents the development of a real time vibrotactile biofeedback system for medial-lateral trunk tilt. The prototype employs a wireless inertial sensor for trunk tilt angle measurements, a comprehensive software interface for data acquisition, data processing and display, video recording, feedback signal generation and data analysis, and wearable vibrotactile actuators to provide biofeedback based on trunk tilt measurements. Feedback is provided based on a threshold angle range entered via the interface. To test the applicability of the system, a commonly used balance training protocol was identified, standing in tandem Romberg Position with eyes open and eyes closed. Two young, healthy subjects participated in the experiment with and without the biofeedback system, and the effectiveness of biofeedback was analyzed.
