In any autonomous driving system, the map for localization plays a vital part that is often underestimated. The map describes the world around the vehicle outside of the sensor view and is a main input into the decision making process in highly complicated scenarios. Thus there are strict requirements towards the accuracy and timeliness of the map. We present a robust and reliable approach towards crowd based mapping using a GraphSLAM framework based on radar sensors. We show on a parking lot that even in dynamically changing environments, the localization results are very accurate and reliable even in unexplored terrain without any map data. This can be achieved by collaborative map updates from multiple vehicles. To show these claims experimentally, the Joint Graph Optimization is compared to the ground truth on an industrial parking space. Mapping performance is evaluated using a dense map from a total station as reference and localization results are compared with a deeply coupled DGPS/INS system.
Die Entwicklung eines Medizinproduktes benötigt in der Regel mehrere Jahre. Gesetzliche Vorgaben, wie zum Beispiel das Medizinprodukte Durchführungsgesetz, bestimmen, welche Schritte während der Entwicklung durchgeführt werden müssen. Deren Einhaltung muss in der technischen Dokumentation nachgewiesen werden. Die darin enthaltenen technischen Dokumente entstehen im Verlauf der Entwicklung. Diese bauen aufeinander auf und verweisen sich gegenseitig. Dadurch entstehen heterogene und unübersichtliche Strukturen. Eine Lösung für dieses Problem bietet Traceability. Traceability sorgt dafür, dass die Anforderungen an das Medizinprodukt mit Dokumenten, wie dem Anforderungskatalog, Lastenheft oder der Spezifikation verknüpft werden können. Somit ist jederzeit nachvollziehbar, welche Anforderungen mit welchem Test, welchen Änderungen oder welchen Ergebnissen zusammenhängen. Ein wichtiger Prozess bei der Entwicklung von Medizinprodukten ist zudem das Usability Engineering, wodurch die Sicherheit eines Medizinprodukts sichergestellt und Risiken bei der Anwendung minimiert werden sollen. In diesem Prozess entstehen viele Artefakte, wie zum Beispiel Usability-Berichte. Um den Überblick über alle Usability-Daten behalten zu können, können diese mithilfe von Traceability verknüpft werden. In diesem Artikel wird herausgestellt, welche Voraussetzungen für das Usability Engineering in der Medizintechnik an Traceability gestellt
werden.
Bausparverträge sind kombinierte Spar- und Finanzierungsinstrumente, die für die breite Bevölkerung ausgelegt sind. Im Jahr 2020 umfasste der Bestand an Bausparverträgen in Deutschland ca. 25 Mio. Verträge. Ein wesentlicher Teil der Attraktivität des Bausparvertrags für Kunden liegt in der hohen Flexibilität dieser Finanzprodukte, die im Vertragsablauf eine flexible Anpassung an individuelle Finanzierungsbedingungen ermöglicht. In der Sparphase sind das insbesondere Möglichkeiten zur Erhöhung, Ermäßigung und Teilung der Verträge sowie zur relativ flexiblen Anpassung der Sparrate. Bei einem zuteilungsreifen Vertrag kann die Sparphase innerhalb bestimmter zeitlicher Grenzen fortgesetzt werden. In der Darlehensphase sind flexible Sondertilgungen jederzeit und ohne Vorfälligkeitsentschädigung möglich.
Die Vielzahl eingebetteter Optionen beeinflussen sich wechselseitig und müssen in ihrer Wirkungsweise immer gesamthaft betrachtet und gesteuert werden. Die empirische Erfahrung der letzten Jahrzehnte zeigt bezüglich der Optionsausübung ein Kundenverhalten, das sich zwar an finanzmathematischen Überlegungen orientiert, aber nicht vollständig finanzrational abläuft.
Digital Enterprise Architecture allows multiple viewpoints on a company’s IT landscape. To gain valuable information out of huge amounts of operational data, it is indispensable to have both an understanding of the operations architecture and an engine capable of managing Big Data. The mechanism of understanding huge amounts of data is based on three main steps: collect, process and use. The main idea is focused on extracting valuable information out of Big Data to make better design decisions. The Elastic Stack is an open-source solution to comfortably and quickly handle Big Data scenarios.
Measuring cardiorespiratory parameters in sleep, using non-contact sensors and the Ballistocardiography technique has received much attention due to the low-cost, unobtrusive, and non-invasive method. Designing a user-friendly, simple-to-use, and easy-to-deployment preserving less error-prone remains open and challenging due to the complex morphology of the signal. In this work, using four forcesensitive resistor sensors, we conducted a study by designing four distributions of sensors, in order to simplify the complexity of the system by identifying the region of interest for heartbeat and respiration measurement. The sensors are deployed under the mattress and attached to the bed frame without any interference with the subjects. The four distributions are combined in two linear horizontal, one linear vertical, and one square, covering the influencing region in cardiorespiratory activities. We recruited 4 subjects and acquired data in four regular sleeping positions, each for a duration of 80 seconds. The signal processing was performed using discrete wavelet transform bior 3.9 and smooth level of 4 as well as bandpass filtering. The results indicate that we have achieved the mean absolute error of 2.35 and 4.34 for respiration and heartbeat, respectively. The results recommend the efficiency of a triangleshaped structure of three sensors for measuring heartbeat and respiration parameters in all four regular sleeping positions.
Assistive environments are entering our homes faster than ever. However, there are still various barriers to be broken. One of the crucial points is a personalization of offered services and integration of assistive technologies in common objects and therefore in a regular daily routine. Recognition of sleep patterns for the preliminary sleep study is one of the Health services that could be performed in an undisturbing way. This article proposes the hardware system for the measurement of bio-vital signals necessary for initial sleep study in a nonobtrusive way. The first results confirm the potential of measurement of breathing and movement signals with the proposed system.
The goal of the presented project is to develop the concept of home e-health centers for barrier-free and cross-border telemedicine. AAL technologies are already present on the market but there is still a gap to close until they can be used for ordinary patient needs. The general idea needs to be accompanied by new services, which should be brought together in order to provide a full coverage of service for the users. Sleep and stress were chosen as predominant influence in the population. The executed scientific study of available home devices analyzing sleep has provided the necessary to select appropriate devices. The first choice for the project implementation is the device EMFIT QS+. This equipment provides a part of a complete system that a home telemedical hospital can provide at a level of precision and communication with internal and/or external health services.
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) affect a large number of children both in the Russian Federation and in Germany. Early diagnosis is key for these children, because the sooner parents notice such disorders in a child and the rehabilitation and treatment program starts, the higher the likelihood of his social adaptation. The difficulties in raising such a child lie in the complexity of his learning outside of children's groups and the complexity of his medical care. In this regard, the development of digital applications that facilitate medical care and education of such children at home is important and relevant. The purpose of the project is to improve the availability and quality of healthcare and social adaptation at home of children with ASD through the use of digital technologies.
The citizen-centered health platform project is intended to provide a platform that can be used in EU cross-border regions, where social and economic exchange occurs across national borders. The overriding challenges are: (a) social: improving citizen-centered health and care provision; (b) technical: providing a digital platform for networking citizens, service providers, and municipal actors; (c) economic: developing long-term successful (sustainable) business models/value chains. The platform should strengthen and expand existing networks and establish new regional networks. Each network addresses particular challenges and apply them in a region-specific manner. Here, the national boundary conditions and the interregional needs play an essential role. These objectives require sufficient participation of civil society representatives. Furthermore, the platform will establish an overarching, sustainable, and knowledge-based network of health experts. The platform is to be jointly developed and implemented in the regions and follow an open-access approach. Therefore, synergies will be shared more quickly, strengthening competencies and competitiveness. In addition to practice partners, scientific and municipal institutions and SMEs are involved. The actors thus contribute to scientific performance, innovative strength, and resilience.
An ongoing challenge in our days is to lower the impact on the quality of life caused by dysfunctionality through individual support. With the background of an aging society and continuous increases in costs for care, a holistic solution is needed. This solution must integrate individual needs and preferences, locally available possibilities, regional conditions, professional and informal caregivers and provide the flexibility to implement future requirements. The proposed model is a result of a common initiative to overcome the major obstacles and to center a solution on individual needs caused by dysfunctionality.
