Robot Positioning Based on Multiple Quick Response Code Landmarks

The scheme of robot positioning based on multiple quick response(QR)code landmarks is proposed.Firstly,the pose of the robot relative to the QR code landmarks is obtained by extracting the feature points of the QR code,combined with the visual computing technology.Then,the conversion of the absolute pose of the robot is completed based on the absolute position of the QR code landmark,and thus the real-time position of the robot is obtained.The proposed scheme makes full use of the QR code fault tolerance and multiple QR code landmarks to improve the calculation accuracy.It has good robustness and versatility,and it is easy to implement.It can help the robot to complete the positioning in the actual work,making robot navigation more accurate.

Low Distortion Quick Response Noise Filter Realized withAverage Peaks Method

The filter proposed in this paper is expected to reduce noise whose frequency is lower than higher order harmonics of real signals.It is based on the distributive characteristics of noise,and uses analog circuits to select the high peak and low peak of the input signal and applies their average in order to reduce random noise.So it has no cutoff frequency and higher order harmonics of real signals are remained.As a result,it gives an instant response to changes in input signals and retains the integrity of real signals.Furthermore,it has only a small phase delay.The simulation results of slew rate,phase delay and spectral analysis under MULTISIM indicate that the quick response noise filter achieves a high slew rate of 472 V/ms and the phase shift is nearly zero.By having it used in a color tester design,it is also demonstrated that the proposed filter effectively reduces noise and remains signal integrity.With the filter 's help,the relative standard deviation of the spectrograph decreases from 1% to 0.22%,indicating better stability.

Electrochemical synthesis of FeN_(x) doped carbon quantum dots for sensitive detection of Cu^(2+) ion

A novel strategy was developed to fabricate FeNx-doped carbon quantum dots(Fe-N-CQDs)to detect Cu^(2+) ions selectively as a fluorescence probe.The Fe-N-CQDs were synthesized by an efficient electrolysis of a carbon cloth electrode,which was coated with monoatomic ironanchored nitrogen-doped carbon(Fe-N-C).The obtained Fe-N-CQDs emitted blue fluorescence and possessed a quantum yield(QY)of 7.5%.An extremely wide linear relationship between the Cu^(2+) concentration and the fluorescence intensity was obtained in the range from 100 nmol L^(-1) to 1000 nmol L^(-1)(R^(2)=0.997),and the detection limit was calculated as 59 nmol L^(-1).Moreover,the Fe-N-CQDs demonstrated wide range pH compatibility between 2 and 13 due to the coordination between pyridine nitrogen and Fe^(3+),which dramatically reduced the affection of the protonation and deprotonation process between H^(+) and Fe-N-CQDs.It is notable that the Fe-N-CQDs exhibited a rapid response in Cu^(2+) detection,where stable quenching can be completed in 7 s.The mechanism of excellent selective detection of Cu^(2+) was revealed by energy level simulation that the LUMO level of Fe-N-CQDs(-4.37 eV)was close to the redox potential of Cu^(2+),thus facilitating the electron transport from Fe-N-CQDs to Cu^(2+).

Simultaneous Localization and Mapping System Based on Labels

In this paper a label-based simultaneous localization and mapping（ SLAM） system is proposed to provide localization to indoor autonomous robots. In the system quick response（ QR） codes encoded with serial numbers are utilized as labels. These labels are captured by two webcams,then the distances and angles between the labels and webcams are computed. Motion estimated from the two rear wheel encoders is adjusted by observing QR codes. Our system uses the extended Kalman filter（ EKF） for the back-end state estimation. The number of deployed labels controls the state estimation dimension. The label-based EKF-SLAM system eliminates complicated processes,such as data association and loop closure detection in traditional feature-based visual SLAM systems. Our experiments include software-simulation and robot-platform test in a real environment. Results demonstrate that the system has the capability of correcting accumulated errors of dead reckoning and therefore has the advantage of superior precision.

Integrated management system of agro-fishery products based on QR-code

Recently,both the importance and awareness relating to food safety relating to agrochemicals,chemical fertilizers,the pollution of ecosystem and unwholesome foods are growing rapidly.For the same reason,the purchaser's curiosity increases to know about the production process which can be accomplished by production traceability system.The traceability system can store and superintend the specific attribute information about products regarding the productive centre,producer and production finish data.The products undergo various circulation processes and they are being managed by individually constructed traceability system.Thus,it is difficult for the producer and the consumer to guarantee the safety from transpirable issues about the falsification of production traceability because the traceability information can be re-produced by forging through various ways.So in this paper,we proposed a system for integrated management of agro-fishery products based on quick response code(QR-code)for forgery prevention which may help to solve these issues.The proposed system makes QR-code using production information provided by producer.And then it is provided to the distributor and the consumer through integrated service model using the QR-code.Therefore,this system make sure to provide the same production traceability about the products to the distributor and the consumer and always keeps both updated with the same information.

Quick Response Disaster Research:Opportunities and Challenges for a New Funding Program

Quick response research conducted by social scientists in the aftermath of a disaster can reveal important findings about hazards and their impacts on communities.Research to collect perishable data,or data that will change or be lost over time,immediately following disaster has been supported for decades by two programs in the United States,amassing a collection of quick response studies and an associated research culture.That culture is currently being challenged to better address power imbalances between researchers and disaster-affected participants.Until recently,Canada has not had a quick response grant program.In order to survey the state of knowledge and draw from it in helping to shape the new program in Canada,this article systematically analyzes the body of research created by the two US programs.The results reveal a wide-ranging literature:the studies are theoretically,conceptually,topically,and methodologically quite unique to one another.This diversity might appropriately reflect the nature of disasters,but the finding that many studies are not building on previous quick response research and other in sights indicate opportunities for how a new grant program in Canada can contribute to growing a robust subdiscipline of disaster research.

Quick Responses of Canadian Social Scientists to COVID-19:A Case Study of the 2020 Federal COVID-19-Specific Grant Recipients

COVID-19 prompted an abundance of independent and collaborative quick response disaster research(QRDR)initiatives globally.The 2020 federal COVID-19-driven granting opportunities initiated the first official QRDR effort in Canadian history,engaging social scientists to rapidly address the pandemic-related societal influences.This study aims to portray the landscape of this nascent social science QRDR workforce through the first round of federal COVID-19-specific grant recipients.A case study approach was employed to analyze 337 social science projects with 1119 associated researchers,examining the demographic structure of these COVID-19-driven social science researchers and their research projects'characteristics.Accordingly,the findings are presented through the following two streams:(1)From a researcher perspective,this case study describes researcher typology,geographic location,primary discipline,and educational background,highlighting the diverse characteristics of social sciences researchers,and uneven research development across Canada.(2)From a research project perspective,this case study identifies and synthesizes research project subjects,themes,collaborations,and Canadian distinctions,emphasizing the need for galvanizing cooperation and focusing on uniquely Canadian contexts.The case study illustrates challenges associated with data curation that pose barriers to developing a nuanced understanding of the Canadian social science community COVID-19 research landscape.Consequently,the case study develops three recommendations to improve QRDR development in Canada:promoting information transparency,dissemination,and updates;improving hazards and disaster research workforce evaluation;and enhancing multi-stakeholder cooperation.
