As a caregiver and a worker at the same time, 78 per cent of employees sometimes had to take short time off or leave early from work, come to work late, and being absence for a long period of time. Since children with autism needs more health services and attention, working parents are hoping to get better employees benefits from their employers. Mostly, in developed countries such as United States, employee benefits for working parents with autistic children is applicable but the employees benefits provided are very limited and it is based on the organization's benefit policies. This research provides a general review on previous related studies especially the one which is closely related to employee benefits for working parents with autistic children. Thus, this research can contribute to the new knowledge in creating special employee benefits in the workplace for working parents with autistic children globally.","PeriodicalId":240232,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Robotics and Manufacturing Automation (ROMA)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115365983","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}

It is observed all patients with this disease mostly suffer from decrease or loss their vision. For the automatic diagnosis of diabetic retinopathy (DR) and determination of a diabetic eye from a healthy eye, we need to extract several features from retinopathy images. There are various possible characteristics can be extracted from the retina photography images, hence it is significant to discover the most effective features for detection of diabetic retinopathy. In this study the Gaussian filter is used to enhance images and separate vessels with a high brightness intensity distribution. Next, wavelets transform is used to extract vessels. After that according to some criteria such as vessels density, the location of optic disc was determined. Then after optic disc extraction, exudates regions were determined. Finally we classified the images with a boosting classifier. With utilizing the boosting algorithm, the suggested system can have a power classifier. It is generated by a combination of some weak and simple learners. Hence, this approach can reduce the complication and time consuming operation.","PeriodicalId":240232,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Robotics and Manufacturing Automation (ROMA)","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116611007","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}

Gardening seems to release the stress, healthy spending of the leisure time effectively. But the apartment living has no free space for gardening. As a result, small scale greenhouse is now the hottest trend in the century. Greenhouse is a structure that the user used to grow the plants. It is built with a specific need for the type of plant they wish to grow. So the structure varies depending on type of plant and scale of size. Although it creates a perfect environment for plants, it needs human care to control the optimum status of the house such as ventilation. Automated greenhouse is to ease people when they wish to grow plants. It helps to monitor the situation, when they are not at home. The main aim of this paper is to minimize the human care needed for the plant by automating the green house and monitor the in-house environment status. A single unit of the greenhouse structure prototype has been constructed and integrated with the sensors. The control system is designed with Adriano Uno microcontroller. Servo motors have been used to push the roof when there is rain detected. A 12 volt fan is also installed and turns ON when the temperature is too high. The prototype developed is simulated under five different places and the results are analyzed.","PeriodicalId":240232,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Robotics and Manufacturing Automation (ROMA)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126416863","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}

Among the symptoms of ASD are difficulties to focus that leads to difficulties in learning especially to those ASD children. Thus, the objective of this project is to investigate the current teaching method used by the autism therapists and solve the weaknesses via robotic means. The NXT will be used in order to aid the therapists in educating those children with ASD. Upon the completion of the prototype, it will be tested against the autistic children to check on the efficacy of the developed prototype. The project will focus on how to attract the autistic children into learning via the usage of robotic application. In a preliminary investigation, multiple robotic designs and programming approach are studied to produce a robotic application that can assist therapists and engage with the target autistic children in order to facilitate their process of learning. Interviews with the therapists and live observation at the selected special school are conducted to understand the traditional learning process that are used by the therapists and identify the weaknesses in it to improvise it. The significance of this robotic application is to fulfill the depravedness in the learning capabilities of the autistic children and also to assist the therapists in their daily routine.","PeriodicalId":240232,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Robotics and Manufacturing Automation (ROMA)","volume":"110 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134582048","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}

Although we have accomplished several manipulation tasks using a robot equipped with optical three-axis tactile sensors, the sensor has some problems related to compactness and insensible zone. The former problem is more serious for robotic manipulation and is caused by usage of external devices. In this study, we designed and developed an all-in-type three-axis tactile sensor, which includes all devices required for this sensor in its casing. Furthermore, this sensor features a rubber dome structure rather than the previous aluminum dome. Not only is this tactile sensor equipped with all devices on the inside, it also reduces the insensible zone and enlarges measurable range of force. In the design of the tactile sensor, we miniaturized its whole structure through adoption of a CMOS board camera equipped with LEDs. Since a USB is installed in the CMOS camera as an interface, an additional image processing board is not required. In evaluation experiments, although this sensor shows considerable non-linear characteristics, it possesses sufficient sensitivity and acceptable force range for both normal and tangential forces.","PeriodicalId":240232,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Robotics and Manufacturing Automation (ROMA)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131885775","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}
