Wear and Click - Glove Mouse

There are many ways for Human computer interaction. Out of these standard PC mouse has been in use for over 40 years. There are many limitations with the standard mouse. In this paper, a different method of interaction is proposed. For this Glove Mouse is designed for controlling the mouse movements on computer. The device is used for basic interface tasks like clicking, enabling and disabling. With the new device, the user can move the mouse cursor around the computer screen by just moving his hand. User can also perform clicks with this new device. The glove mouse senses the user actions via two types of sensors: accelerometers and finger contact pads. For processing and transmitting the signals, it uses microcontroller and RF module. This Novel approach enhances the user experience of interaction with computer even from very large distance.

Airborne Internet : market & opportunity

Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, System Design and Management Program, 2007.Includes bibliographical references (p. 70-72).The purpose of this thesis to evaluate the opportunity for service provider entry and of the airborne internet, to analyze the disruptive impact technology used by AirCell and AeroSat has had on the development of an airborne internet, and to identify various stake holders and their value propitiation. The airborne internet has the potential to change the way we fly and spend time when sitting in the plane. In the last fifty years, there has not been much technological advancement in the air traffic control system. Airplane operation still depends on current ground control and radar systems that are very expensive and very difficult to scale. These technologies are also heavily dependant on humans. There have been many technological advancements out side of the aviation industry. Establishing an airborne internet is a tremendous opportunity for everyone. With the help of an airborne Internet, each plane can transmit its identity, location, and also direct video footage that will help Homeland security fight against terrorism. The airborne internet has the ability to connect airplanes not just via a computer on the ground (or via satellite) but directly with each other, relaying information from other planes in an Internet-like fashion. The airborne internet is strongly supported by the Pentagon, FAA and NASA. The U.S. Air Force and FAA are working on defining the architecture of an airborne network and hope to begin actively developing and testing the network itself between 2008 and 2012. According to the FAA, in 2005 there were 10 million flights carrying a total of 660 million passengers in the United States. For the FAA there are a number of merits to working with an airborne internet service provider to continue tests and validate the technical and economic feasibility of an airborne internet.(cont.) First, there appears to be a substantial market -- in the range of $1b -- for services that require internet connectivity on the air for the commercial airline, air cargo, business jet, and general aviation sector. Second, current alternatives such as satellite solutions and existing air-to-ground solutions fail to meet all the needs of the mass market. Satellite solutions provided by companies such as Inmarsat, Iridium, and Globalstar are priced at a premium and carry an expensive cost structure from the maintenance and investment in orbiting satellites. Airborne Internet service can be offered through three different technologies first, a satellite solution offered by Boeing; second, air-to-ground systems provided by companies such as AirCell; and third, a network of airplane ground -to - air system like AeroSat, all of which are compatible with the planned FAA architecture. Boeing's model is prohibitively expensive; a business model for an airborne internet solution based on a South West Airlines type low cost approach may make an airbome internet more feasible The model would rely on low service fees to promote greater consumer usage, high capacity utilization of ground stations to promote margins, low aircraft equipment costs to help cash flows, and risk/reward sharing with airlines to promote aircraft operator adoption. Assuming that a service provider relied on revenue from non-FAA related services, it could still generate ample margins to support other general FAA applications behind the scenes. The FAA can demonstrate overall support for an airborne internet vision, help attract key players to the ecosystem needed to implement the system, promote usage, and drive required airline ROI. The FAA could also drive the implementation of industry standards required to eventually ensure globally consistent services.(cont.) However, even with these clear benefits, there are a few key risks that need to be considered and further evaluated. First, this analysis evaluated the economic feasibility of an airborne internet. It does not take into consideration testing or validating the potential network performance from AeroSat's innovative mesh approach in an actual pilot test. Second, more extensive demonstrations will be required to further validate performance and the related cost for the supporting infrastructure. Some key economics like the number of antennae required on aircraft as the network grows should be explored in greater detail after initial simulations. Finally, uncertainty over potential developments of spectrum-free solutions, evolutes of ultra-wideband with potentially disruptive cost structures, could slow the market from adopting a spectrum-based solution. Although this is unlikely given the FAA's current stance on the use of UWB, the issue is worth further research and conversations with the FAA. Accordingly, continued testing, development, and analysis to test feasibility and clarify the key unknowns is recommended. There are a few areas that deserve special attention. First, the target customer composition required to drive the business model should be finalized. The reliability and performance of the mesh-approach is partly dependent on the density of airtraffic in relation to the location of installed ground stations. Second, spectrum requirement issues, including the cost of acquisition and regulatory compliance, need clarification as they strongly impact the business model. Third, the potential magnitude and variability of assumed revenue sources, as well as the timing of cash collections across key customer segments, should be explored.(cont.) Both of these impact the assumed free-cash-flows generated by the potential business model. Finally the potential terms of airline risk/reward sharing contracts required to equip aircraft with different quantities and types of antennae, need further exploration. Air carriers seem to be moving away from models where they absorb all of the equipment/certification costs - the economic feasiblity of a potential service provider depend on the service provider's ability to offer airlines this service at a reasonably good rate.by Anand Bhadouria.S.M

Knowledge and Attitude of Primary School Teachers for Periodontal Disease

Background: This research study aimed to explore the knowledge and attitudes of primary school teachers regarding periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is a common oral health condition that can affect people of all ages, including children. Teachers play a vital role in promoting oral health among their students, and understanding their knowledge and attitudes towards periodontal disease is essential for designing effective oral health education programs. Materials and Methods: For this study, a survey was conducted among primary school teachers from various schools. The survey included questions related to their knowledge about periodontal disease, its causes, symptoms, and preventive measures. Additionally, it assessed their attitudes towards oral health promotion in the classroom. A total of 300 primary school teachers participated in the survey, providing valuable insights into their perspectives on periodontal disease. Results: Knowledge Level: The study found that 60% of primary school teachers had a basic understanding of periodontal disease. However, only 25% could correctly identify its major causes, and 45% were aware of its common symptoms. Attitudes towards Oral Health: Interestingly, 80% of teachers expressed a positive attitude towards incorporating oral health education into their teaching curriculum. They believed that educating students about oral hygiene was important. Use of Educational Resources: Approximately 70% of teachers reported using oral health educational resources such as pamphlets and videos in their classrooms. Barriers: The study also identified some barriers to effective oral health education, including a lack of time, resources, and training. Conclusion: This study highlights the varying levels of knowledge among primary school teachers regarding periodontal disease. While a majority expressed positive attitudes towards oral health education, there is a need for targeted training and resources to improve their knowledge and confidence in teaching students about periodontal disease. Efforts to overcome existing barriers should also be considered to enhance oral health promotion in primary schools

The timing and level of expression of CENH3 is tightly regulated to match the demands of the host cell. So far in plants, only CENH3 promoter of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. has been characterized. However, whether CENH3 promoters retain their characteristic mode of regulation in other species remains to be established. In the present study, activity of AtCENH3 promoter was investigated using reporter gene assay in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal">Brassica juncea (L.) Czern. A 1156 bp promoter fragment of AtCENH3 gene (<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal">At1g01370) including the first 111 nucleotides of the coding sequence was amplified and cloned into the pORE-R2 binary vector to ensure translation fusion with the uidA coding sequences. The Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV3101 harbouring the recombinant construct was used to transform B. juncea cv. RLM198 hypocotyl explants. Histochemical assay of T0 and T1 transgenics showed GUS expression in shoot apical meristem, leaf, sepal, flower pedicel and root tip. Intense GUS expression was observed in meristematic tissues, particularly at shoot and root apices. However, mature leaves, flowers, pollen and ovules exhibited very low or no GUS expression. Our results showed that AtCENH3 promoter regulates cognate gene expression in Brassica juncea as it does in A. thaliana, and hence a suitable candidate for developing haploid inducer line in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal">B. juncea. </span
