Design of a mobile telecardiology system using GPRS/GSM technology

This paper presents the design and development of a portable electrocardiograph to allow the on-line remote monitoring and real-time cardiac diseases diagnostics of patients from the specialist. This prototype has been satisfactory implemented finding a good balance between optimal signal processing and power consumption using a GPRS/GSM modem and a SMT low voltage microprocessor board

Accurate and Wide-Field-of-View MEMS-Based Sun Sensor for Industrial Applications

This paper describes the design, fabrication, sim- ulation, and experimental results of an improved miniaturized two-axis sun sensor for industrial applications, created by adapt- ing a technology used previously in satellite applications. The sensor for each axis is composed of six photodiodes integrated in a crystalline-silicon substrate and a layer of cover glass, which is used to protect the silicon and to hold the windows. The high precision is obtained by the subdivision of the field of view, which is ± 60 ◦ , with a resolution of 0.1 ◦ . Each region is controlled by an independent high-precision solar sensor. The sensor can be used for sun-tracking applications in a photovoltaic system, heliostat concentration plants, and lighting applications.Gobierno de España.

Estudi ATDOM-O2 : Fase I. Estan formades les professionals d'infermeria d'atenció primària en oxigenoteràpia crònica domiciliària?

L'oxigenoteràpia crònica domiciliària (OCD) és l'ús terapèutic de l'oxigen per reduir el dèficit d'oxigenació de la sang. L'objectiu del tractament amb OCD és corregir la hipoxèmia per evitar la hipòxia tissular i millorar la supervivència i la qualitat de vida dels pacients amb insuficiència respiratòria crònica demostrada

SENSOSOL: MultiFOV 4-Quadrant high precision sun sensor for satellite attitude control

The design, manufacturing and calibration of an improved miniaturized two axis sun sensor for satellite attitude control will be shown. The high precision is obtained by the subdivision of the field of view (FOV). The FOV and the resolution obtained are ±60° and 0.5° for the coarse measure and ±6° with precision better than 0.05° for the fine measure.Peer ReviewedPostprint (published version
