This investigation provides an on-shaft machine wearable vibration sensing technique for effectively monitoring the running state of rotors while minimizing the interference with their operations. In this work, key investigations include the following: (1) theoretical modeling and an analysis of rotor imbalance, and its measurement with an on-shaft micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) accelerometer; (2) the development of a wirelessly powered, cordless on-shaft vibration measurement (OSVM) sensor for unobtrusive sensing of the vibration of rotating shafts; (3) the in-sensor computing design for optimizing the distribution of computing resources and decreasing data transmission. The tests and evaluation of the proposed techniques were conducted with a rotor test rig to demonstrate their feasibility. The presented investigation is a typical example of applying new sensing and computing paradigms to improve the flexibility and convenience of applications, which is a good reference for related investigations and practices.

Sustainable Power Consumption for Variance-Based Integration Model in Cellular 6G-IoT System

With the emergence of the 5G network, the count of analysis papers associated with the 6G Internet of Things (IoT) has rapidly increased due to the rising attention of researchers in next-generation technology, 6G networks and IoT techniques. Owing to this, grasping the overall research topics and directions is a complex task. To mutually address the significant issues of 6G cellular IoT, i.e., information transmission, data aggregation and power supply, we proposed a variance-based integrating model for the 6G-IoT approach that considers energy, communication and computation (ECC). Initially, the base station (BS) charges huge IoT devices concurrently utilizing WPT in the downlink. After that, IoT devices gather the energy to perform the communication task and the computation task in the uplink in a similar spectrum. Also, the model integrates the optimization of transmit beams via the Improved Ant Colony Optimization (IACO) model to balance the system performance, power consumption and computational complexity. Further, this study exploited activated Remote Radio Units (RRUs) to improve the network performance and energy efficiency in the downlink model. The simulation outcomes evaluate the performance of the proposed work over the conventional models concerning error analysis. From the results, the MSE value in the IACO work is much lower, around 0.011, while the compared schemes achieved comparatively higher MSE values.

Biomimetic Spun Silk Ionotronic Fibers for Intelligent Discrimination of Motions and Tactile Stimuli.

Innovation in the ionotronics field has significantly accelerated the development of ultraflexible devices and machines. However, it is still challenging to develop efficient ionotronic-based fibers with necessary stretchability, resilience, and conductivity due to inherent conflict in producing spinning dopes with both high polymer and ion concentrations and low viscosities. Inspired by the liquid crystalline spinning of animal silk, this study circumvents the inherent tradeoff in other spinning methods by dry spinning a nematic silk microfibril dope solution. The liquid crystalline texture allows the spinning dope to flow through the spinneret and form free-standing fibers under minimal external forces. The resultant silk-sourced ionotronic fibers (SSIFs) are highly stretchable, tough, resilient, and fatigue-resistant. These mechanical advantages ensure a rapid and recoverable electromechanical response of SSIFs to kinematic deformations. Further, the incorporation of SSIFs into core-shell triboelectric nanogenerator fibers provides outstanding stable and sensitive triboelectric response to precisely and sensitively perceive small pressures. Moreover, by implementing a combination of machine learning and Internet of Things techniques, the SSIFs can sort objects made of different materials. With these structural, processing, performance, and functional merits, the SSIFs prepared herein are expected to be applied in human-machine interfaces.

Introduction: The echo states that networks in the Internet of Things (IoT) are currently being implemented in the widest sense. Echo state networks are fast and efficient recurrent neural networks. This consists of an input layer, a reservoir with many sparsely connected neurons, and an output layer. Issues: In the existing wireless sensor networks, strong mobility may disrupt an existing link between two communicating nodes. There is an inconvenience in data communication, and then it searches for a new node to build a better connection. Methods: To overcome these issues, the recently introduced echo state network (ESN) model opened the way to an extremely efficient approach for designing neural networks for temporal data. The study focuses on the ESN-enabled Intelligent Smart Sensor Design (IS2D) for creating the robotic nervous system with a smart healthcare Digital Nervous System (DNS) using the techniques of IoT, DNS, and Smart Sensor Design and Strain Sensor Fabrication (SSF). Results: Experimental results demonstrate the training set testing against the IS2D, the confusion matrix for ESN outcome, the real-time healthcare monitoring for the DNS, the IS2D sensor accuracy, and the DNS intensity calculation.

The confusion matrix for ESN outcome is based on accuracy 28.45% higher than the existing strategies. In this part, the initial accuracy is 8.45% while accessing the initial stage. This value should increase with consecutive data sets from 18.45% to 28.45%.

A Review of Successes and Impeding Challenges of IoT-Based Insect Pest Detection Systems for Estimating Agroecosystem Health and Productivity of Cotton.

Using artificial intelligence (AI) and the IoT (Internet of Things) is a primary focus of applied engineering research to improve agricultural efficiency. This review paper summarizes the engagement of artificial intelligence models and IoT techniques in detecting, classifying, and counting cotton insect pests and corresponding beneficial insects. The effectiveness and limitations of AI and IoT techniques in various cotton agricultural settings were comprehensively reviewed. This review indicates that insects can be detected with an accuracy of between 70 and 98% using camera/microphone sensors and enhanced deep learning algorithms. However, despite the numerous pests and beneficial insects, only a few species were targeted for detection and classification by AI and IoT systems. Not surprisingly, due to the challenges of identifying immature and predatory insects, few studies have designed systems to detect and characterize them. The location of the insects, sufficient data size, concentrated insects on the image, and similarity in species appearance are major obstacles when implementing AI. Similarly, IoT is constrained by a lack of effective field distance between sensors when targeting insects according to their estimated population size. Based on this study, the number of pest species monitored by AI and IoT technologies should be increased while improving the system's detection accuracy.

Geriatric Care Management System Powered by the IoT and Computer Vision Techniques.

The digitalisation of geriatric care refers to the use of emerging technologies to manage and provide person-centered care to the elderly by collecting patients' data electronically and using them to streamline the care process, which improves the overall quality, accuracy, and efficiency of healthcare. In many countries, healthcare providers still rely on the manual measurement of bioparameters, inconsistent monitoring, and paper-based care plans to manage and deliver care to elderly patients. This can lead to a number of problems, including incomplete and inaccurate record-keeping, errors, and delays in identifying and resolving health problems. The purpose of this study is to develop a geriatric care management system that combines signals from various wearable sensors, noncontact measurement devices, and image recognition techniques to monitor and detect changes in the health status of a person. The system relies on deep learning algorithms and the Internet of Things (IoT) to identify the patient and their six most pertinent poses. In addition, the algorithm has been developed to monitor changes in the patient's position over a longer period of time, which could be important for detecting health problems in a timely manner and taking appropriate measures. Finally, based on expert knowledge and a priori rules integrated in a decision tree-based model, the automated final decision on the status of nursing care plan is generated to support nursing staff.

An Edge-computing flow meter reading recognition algorithm optimized for agricultural IoT network

Groundwater resources in Nebraska, U.S. are closely monitored by 23 Natural Resources Districts (NRDs) located across the state. Growers who use groundwater for irrigation are required to have flow meters installed at wells to monitor their water usage. However, many of these flow meters are still being read and recorded through in-person visits, which can be time-consuming and costly. Although some flow meters in Nebraska are monitored remotely by telemetry-enabled camera systems, yearly telemetry costs are high and making long-term operation financially burdensome. Using less expensive network protocol, such as Internet of Things (IoT), to transmit flow meter readings could enable new monitoring opportunities. However, there are challenges in directly transmitting flow meter images via IoT due to limited bandwidth. Therefore, in this study, we developed an algorithm using object detection deep learning techniques, i.e. You Only Look Once (YOLO) that can be programmed at an IoT node which can recognize readings from images of flow meters onsite before transmitting. The developed algorithm could significantly reduce data size and is essential for flow meter monitoring in an IoT network setting. The developed algorithm achieved 95.35% accuracy when recognizing 1,248 real-world flow meter images obtained at the courtesy of North Platte Natural Resources District (NPNRD) in western Nebraska. The framework and algorithm were also tested in a real-world scenario on a flow meter installed on a linear-move sprinkler irrigation system and showed promising results. By leveraging IoT and deep learning techniques, this research has the potential to revolutionize flow meter monitoring, reducing costs and improving efficiency in the management of groundwater resources in Nebraska, and potentially in other regions as well.
