This paper investigates how the latency in a mobile network affect the quality of a highly demanding and sensitive application running on it. The application chosen is a bilateral teleoperation with a haptic input device, meaning a remotely controlled robot with force feedback. The latency of the two a 3Gand 4G Network were measured and simulated in application. To examine how the latency affec...

We present two applications of a single nitrogen vacancy center in a nanodiamond as quantum probe for plasmonic nanostructures. Coupling to the nanostructures is achieved in a highly controlled manner by picking up a pre-characterized nanocrystal with an atomic force microscope and placing it at the desired position. Local launching of single excitations into a nanowire with a spatial control o...

This article describes the development and initial psychometric properties of the Milwaukee Inventory for the Dimensions of Adult Skin picking (MIDAS), a measure designed to assess "automatic" and "focused" skin picking. Data were collected from 92 participants who completed an anonymous internet-based survey. Results of an exploratory factor analysis revealed a two-factor solution. Factors 1 (...

Order picking has been considered as one of the most critical operations in warehouse. In this study, we propose an analytical approximation model based on probability and queueing network theory to analyze order batching and picking area zoning on the mean order throughput time in a synchronized zone picker-to-part order picking system. The resulting model can be easily applied in the design a...

With the development of e-commerce and improvement logistics requirements, more ‘parts-to-picker’ picking systems begin to replace inefficient ‘picker-to-parts’ in various scenarios. As mainstream system, robotic mobile fulfillment system has been attracting much attention recent years. In addition customer's changing rapid response order is particularly important. above context, seek a breakth...

Aim of study: To develop a whole row automatic pick-up device using air force to blow out plug seedlings, avoid the damage seedlings that current way seedling picking by needle insertion induces.Area Jiangsu Province, China.Material and methods: We designed which mainly consists transporting device, loosening clamping an control system. The rate was significantly reduced success increased new m...

This study analyzes impacts by batch picking on picker blocking in narrow-aisle order picking, and determines appropriate batch formations for a better order picking throughput. We present multiple-pick analytical models to offer insights about picker blocking in batch picking. Several simulation studies over a variety of batching situations scrutinize order batching situations which give throu...

Particle picking is a crucial first step in the computational pipeline of single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Selecting particles from the micrographs is difficult especially for small particles with low contrast. As high-resolution reconstruction typically requires hundreds of thousands of particles, manually picking that many particles is often too time-consuming. While semi-a...

Here we are making some predictions based on three methods: a straightforward extrapolations of the existing trends; a self-fulfilling prophecy; and picking some current grievances and predicting that they will be addressed or solved. We predict the growth of multicore computing and dramatic growth of data, as well as the improvements in force fields and sampling methods. We also predict that e...
