In this study, we developed a wearable eye tracker leveraging mini-infrared point sensors. The eye tracker utilized two inexpensive mini-infrared ray (IR) point sensors to measure the left-right eye movements of both eyes. These left-right eye movements, play a crucial role in monitoring and treating mental disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder, and are essential in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR). The proposed eye tracker can track a user’s eye movements by detecting the left-right pupils. We developed a dual sensor-positioning algorithm that measures the left-right movements of both eyes using only two sensors. The strategy of positioning the sensor symmetrically between or outside the eyes allows for the precise measurement of the movements of both eyes. To validate the proposed wearable eye tracker, we analyzed the left and right eye movements of 10 participants and found that there was no statistically significant difference. Further analysis demonstrated a high correlation between the measured eye-movement and the input eye-movement. The proposed device showed the feasibility of employing a wearable and inexpensive eye tracker with only two mini-IR point sensors to accurately measure the left-right movements of both eyes.

To achieve high reliability, fault-tolerance techniques are exploited, but they may increase power consumption and temperature beyond safe limits. Therefore, power-aware fault-tolerance techniques should be used to manage power and temperature issues. We tolerate both permanent and transient faults through hybrid fault-tolerance techniques. In this letter, at first, we investigate how much power and temperature are increased when a hybrid fault-tolerance technique is applied to multicore embedded systems. Then, we propose a peak-power-aware hybrid fault-tolerant technique to meet the temperature constraint. Transient-temperature-based safe power (T-TSP) is a new power budgeting technique whose calculation is based on the current temperature of the processing core. Assigning dynamic budgets through T-TSP to processing cores allows us to effectively reach the full performance of processing cores. Experiments show that our proposed method reduces peak power and energy consumption on average by 13.5% (up to 50.7%) and 41.8% (up to 67.4%), respectively and improves the schedulability on average by 6.8% (up to 22.4%) compared to state-of-the-art methods while meeting the system reliability target.

A system of embedded is a computer system built specifically for an embedded application. An embedded system, as opposed to a general-purpose computer like a personal computer, performs one or a few tasks that are pre-defined and typically have extremely specific requirements. Because the system is specifically designed to perform that task, design engineers can optimize it to make the product smaller and less expensive the electronic voting machine (EVM) is now being introduced. The use of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), often referred to as offline E-Voting, is strictly enforced in India. EVMs offer a variety of customizable properties, such as simple usage, dependability, and quick access. Election-related reports of irregularity are attributed to EVMs. The aforementioned criticisms serve to undermine the primary objective of voters, while the responsibility of conducting free and fair elections rests upon the Election Commission. A voting machine refers to a comprehensive assemblage of mechanical, electromechanical, or electronic components employed for the purpose of ballot definition, vote casting, and vote counting. Additionally, it facilitates the efficient recording and display of election results, preserves audit trail data, and can be readily supplied with the necessary firmware, documentation, and software required for equipment control programming. While mechanical early voting machines were used, electronic voting machines are becoming more and more common. A biometric sensor like a fingerprint reader is one of the most secure voting mechanisms because it is essential that no fraudulent entries are created.
Rapid expansion in the quantity and variety of solid and hazardous waste because of ongoing economic development, urbanization, and industrialization is posing a growing challenge for national and municipal governments to ensure efficient and long-term waste management. As reported by the Global trash Management Market Report 2007, the total amount of municipal solid trash produced globally in 2006 was anticipated to be 2.02 billion tons, a rise of 7% annually since 2003.To reduce the risk to patient and public health and safety, as well as environmental risk, waste management, transportation, and disposal must be carefully handled.

Capacitive sensors are used by the WSR to differentiate between wet and dry trash, trash level detection, foul smell detection, relocation of the system and send alert to the person in-charge. Experimental findings demonstrate that the WSR has successfully integrated the separation of waste into moist and dry waste. Send an alert to the person in-charge for various issues such as trash level capacity, presence of foul smell and relocation of the system.

A knowledgeable management system based on a single integrated device is developed for the automobile lighting system in order to enhance the smart operation of vehicle headlamps and increase the security and dependability of vehicle driving in a wide range of weather conditions, particularly with dust, fog, and haze. When driving at night, the vast majority of drivers turn on their brightest beam. The inconvenience this provides to the individual coming from the opposite route is obvious. To prevent such occurrences, two vehicles are needed to demonstrate the proposed system, which uses a Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) sensor and related communication to help drivers avoid collisions by adjusting their high beams in response to oncoming traffic. To prevent this glare, engineers devised a prototype automated headlamp intensity adjustment system. People driving at night are temporarily rendered blind by this beam, increasing the risk of collisions. When it detects an oncoming vehicle, the high beam automatically changes to the low beam. The manual switching by the driver is unnecessary thanks to this model’s philosophy. The primary objective of this technology is to use an controller to control the vehicle’s headlights in a sophisticated manner, taking into account ambient light levels via a resistor that depends on light and the presence of oncoming traffic via an ultrasonic sensor. Consequently, the system automatically controls the strength of the car’s headlights and establishes an appropriate intensity quality throughout the night, taking into account the ambient light level and the presence of a vehicle approaching from the opposite way.
Radio direction finding, traditionally used for localizing radio signal sources, has been adapted for Bluetooth to enable indoor localization of wireless devices. This adaptation is particularly relevant for achieving accurate indoor localization within networks, especially in battery-powered and resource-limited embedded systems. However, the intricacies of implementing direction of arrival (DOA) methods in such systems, notably those lacking a floating-point unit (FPU), present significant computational challenges. This article addresses these challenges by introducing an innovative fixed-point DOA method, rooted in the estimation of signal parameters via rotation invariance techniques (ESPRIT). Diverging from traditional complex eigenvalue decomposition, our approach employs a simpler power method for DOA estimation and phase offset compensation, utilizing a straightforward trigonometric equation. It also integrates an improved carrier frequency estimator, also based on ESPRIT, which is tens of times more accurate than the conventional method of averaging phase differences. We conducted bare-metal level experiments on an nRF52840 system on chip to evaluate execution time, memory footprint, angle accuracy, and energy consumption. The fixed-point implementation demonstrated an execution time of 2.3 ms and an energy consumption of just 0.348 nWh. These figures represent a 5.9-fold increase in energy efficiency and a 4.4-fold improvement in speed compared to the conventional software-based floating-point approach while maintaining an angle accuracy ranging from nearly 2° to under 0.5°, depending on the signal-to-noise ratio. However, in IoT devices equipped with an FPU, the hardware-based floating-point technique still edges out, being 0.8 ms faster and slightly more energy efficient at 0.319 nWh.
