The ANITA2 (Analysing Interferometer for Ambient Air) instrument is a trace gas analyser, designed to operate onboard the ISS and to monitor the cabin atmosphere. Within the last 2 years, significant progress has been made towards realizing the flight instrument, including the flight-like design, ma...

ANITA2 (Analysing Interferometer for Ambient Air) follows the European precursor mission ANITA1, which delivered information on the air conditions analysing in parallel 33 of the most important trace gases on-board ISS in the cabin atmosphere in 2007 and 2008. The data have shown the benefits of in-...

The aim of the user study was to evaluate how the developed assistive physical keyboard, the Ezi-PAD, and integrated senior friendly applications, can encourage non-smartphone seniors to start using the smartphone and enable senior smartphone users to continue using a smartphone in spite of increasi...

Exploitation of super-critical water from deep geothermal resources can potentially give a 5-10 fold increase in the power output per well. Such an improvement represents a significant reduction in investment costs for deep geothermal energy projects, thus improving their competitiveness. The ongoin...

Embedded systems pose challenges such as limited memory and power budget. The list of mandatory functionality like connectivity, availability and remote configuration increase the software complexity and requires a more dynamic behaviour. This paper shows how to introduce object orientation to achie...

Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) can cause prolonged or permanent injuries if left undetected and ignored. It is therefore of great interest to lower the threshold for diagnosis of individuals with mTBI injury. We report on the development of a prototype of a portable quantified EEG (qEEG) system ...

Prehospital emergency triage involves prioritising patients and deciding who are in the most urgent need of treatment and medical intervention. Currently used triage methods do not support simple sharing of patient-related information, making it challenging for emergency personnel to monitor the num...
