چکیده
This paper describes a novel remote control operational with stroking its surface. There are lots of remote controls in our houses for TVs, air conditioners, and so on. However, when we use a remote control, we need to look at both our fingers and the target appliance that we would like to control. It may be not significantly problematic for young people, but elderly people have a difficulty in manipulating remote controls with many buttons. We consider it will be comfortable for various people to use a remote control without looking at their fingers and pushing buttons. Also we consider a remote control should have life-like appearance to become a more familiar artifact to users. In this study, we propose a life-like remote control, Rebo, operational only with stroking its surface and apply to a TV system. The developed remote control has three advantages; familiarity, function awareness, and stroke manipulation in contrast with conventional remote controls with many buttons. These advantages enable users to feel much familiarity by using it, to easily notice its implemented functions, and to use it without looking at the fingers and buttons.

In this paper various restrictions are proposed in the construction of hierarchical fuzzy rule bases by using Genetic and Bacterial Programming algorithms in order to model black box systems defined by input-output pairs, i.e. to solve supervised machine learning problems. The properties (learning speed, accuracy) of the established systems are observed based on simulation results and they are ...

Although focal brain cooling has distinct power on suppressing epileptic seizures, the technological and physiological feasibility for therapeutic application still remains unknown. This paper addressed the issue of technical feasibility though the development of an implantable, thermoelectricallydriven cooling device. Chronic application of the device on the seizure focus in rats significantly...

متن کاملOn estimating quality of elderly monitoring service based on sensor reliability
Remote monitoring service for elderly people is an effective method to support elderly people with safe. In this paper, we tackle to reveal the relationships between quality of elderly monitoring service and sensor reliability in remote monitoring service. To achieve the above goal, we propose four step methods, generalization by three-actor model, designing the algorithms of the three-actor an...
