AN ADVANCED FIRST AID SYSTEM BASED ON AN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES AND A WIRELESS BODY AREA SENSOR NETWORK FOR ELDERLY PERSONS IN OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENTS

For elderly persons, a fall can cause serious injuries such as a hip fracture or head injury.Here, an advanced first aid system is proposed for monitoring elderly patients with heart conditions that puts them at risk of falling and for providing first aid supplies using an unmanned aerial vehicle.A hybridized fall detection algorithm (FDB-HRT) is p

In some situations, e.g., when filling out lottery tickets, it can be advantageous to select random locations.However, people usually have difficulties with this, because they are biased by preferences for certain regions, such as the center of an area.According to ideas from art theory, the preferred regions reflect the hidden structure of percept

Human exposure to toluene diisocyanate (TDI) occurs mainly through inhalation of vapors in occupational settings where TDI is produced or used, but dermal exposure to TDI is also possible during some operations.Because of a recent epidemiology study reporting a possible association with lung cancer risk in workers with potential dermal exposure to

The gynoecium is the female reproductive system in flowering plants.It is a complex structure formed by different tissues, some that are essential for reproduction and others that facilitate the fertilization process and nurture and protect the developing seeds.The coordinated development of these different tissues during the formation of the gynoe

The present work allows to intuit the unlimited scope of the application of physics in the forensic field, to introduce in the analysis of the investigation of a road accident, computerized simulation techniques that are derived from a rigorous study of the specific accident, to obtain details specific regarding the physical parameters of the vehic
