SmartRolling: A human–machine interface for wheelchair control using EEG and smart sensing techniques     

《Information processing & management》2023,60(3):103262

Smart wheelchairs based on brain–computer interface (BCI) have been widely utilized recently to address certain mobility problems for people with disability. In this paper, we present SmartRolling, an intuitive human–machine interaction approach for the direct control of robotic wheelchair that jointly leverages EEG signals and motion sensing techniques. Specifically, SmartRolling offers two wheelchair-actuation modes for users with different physical conditions: (1) head motion only — people who are severely disabled but able to do basic tasks using eyes and head, and (2) head and hands motion — in addition to type 1, people who can use functioning hands/arms for extra tasks. The system issues operation commands by recognizing different EEG patterns elicited by motor execution (ME) tasks including eye blink, jaw clench, and fist open/close, while at the same time estimates users’ steering intentions based on their facing direction by leveraging inertial measurements and computer vision techniques. The experiment results demonstrate that the proposed system is robust and effective to meets the individual’s needs and has great potential to promote better health.  相似文献   

Creating value from Social Big Data: Implications for Smart Tourism Destinations     

Pasquale Del Vecchio  Gioconda Mele  Valentina Ndou  Giustina Secundo 《Information processing & management》2018,54(5):847-860

This paper aims to demonstrate how the huge amount of Social Big Data available from tourists can nurture the value creation process for a Smart Tourism Destination. Applying a multiple-case study analysis, the paper explores a set of regional tourist experiences related to a Southern European region and destination, to derive patterns and opportunities of value creation generated by Big Data in tourism. Findings present and discuss evidence in terms of improving decision-making, creating marketing strategies with more personalized offerings, transparency and trust in dialogue with customers and stakeholders, and emergence of new business models. Finally, implications are presented for researchers and practitioners interested in the managerial exploitation of Big Data in the context of information-intensive industries and mainly in Tourism.  相似文献   

From the body to the city: participatory action research with social cartography for transformative education and global citizenship     

Monique Leivas 《Educational Action Research》2019,27(1):40-56

ABSTRACT

In times of globalization we are facing a crisis of care. The invisibility of relations of domination and oppression against nature, women and girls, as well as the elderly, generate inequalities and structural problems that increase the unsustainability of life on the planet. The uncertainty towards the future, generated by climate change, pollution and scarcity of water resources, is leading us towards war or revolution – a revolution that requires the involvement of the new generations to transform reality and confront contemporary problems. In this sense, it is necessary to educate, raise awareness and empower girls and boys in citizen participation, in overcoming gender inequalities and in the development of fairer and more sustainable practices and behaviours. The participatory action-research experience with social cartography ‘From the Body to the City’, promoted by the Institute of Innovation and Knowledge Management – INGENIO (CSIC-UPV) in collaboration with the primary school CEIP Vicente Gaos of Valencia (Spain), developed together with the students of 4th primary grade, intended to reflect and act collectively on our territories from the principles of transformative education and global citizenship.  相似文献

海绵城市、城市公园、城市建筑与绿色城市     

曹婷  连之伟  周武忠 《中国名城》2021,(4):8-14

“绿色”作为现代城市主题,将“城市种进大自然”成为由城市建设不当导致生态问题的核心解决策略。依据设计实践和相关案例分析,可提出:(1)海绵城市的核心治理理念和目前建筑能耗相关概念结合,以“削峰填谷”解决环境、城市内涝问题。(2)城市公园设计必须从生态的丰富内涵出发,尊重城市地格,同时注意整个城市的公园联络性,形成城市空间内的自然轴线.。(3)垂直绿化不仅是单一的绿色外观建筑设计形式,还需要和建筑功能空间、理念结合,让自然这个元素由外向内渗透到建筑内部、人居环境、人们健康饮食以及健康生活方式甚至是思想观念,从建筑外观或者城市形象来增添城市与自然的相关性。  相似文献   

生态文明：城市休闲体育发展的必然选择     

单凤霞  郭修金 《南京体育学院学报(社会科学版)》2019,2(1):60-68

“美丽中国”战略目标的实现离不开“美丽城市”的建设。生态文明是实现美丽城市更新建设的保证者，而美丽城市的建设是落实生态文明的重要举措，两者互动发展、共同促进。城市休闲体育的蓬勃开展离不开生态文明的推动与滋养，生态文明建设是休闲体育发展的至高境界，为城市休闲体育发展提供了外在环境和内部动力。城市休闲体育通过亲近自然、绿色消费、健身怡情、协调“三生”等实际行动，起到了推动人居环境改善、拉动低碳经济增长、实现生命价值延展和促进城市休闲功能提升的作用，是生态文明建设的最佳践行手段。  相似文献   

Creative labor as moral and ethical subjects and its limitation: Creative City Yokohama,Japan     

Changwook Kim 《Inter-Asia Cultural Studies》2019,20(1):39-55

This study aims to reconsider and re-evaluate the rapid circulation of global creative city policy from the viewpoint of its creative workforce by focusing on the case of Yokohama, Japan. To shed light on this workforce’s everyday experiences and labor subjectivity, this investigation draws ideas from recent research trends of “creative labor” from the field of media and cultural studies, sociology of work, and political economy of communication. Based on in-depth interviews and participant observations, this research focuses on how the ethical and moral dimensions of labor subjectivity in creative work are prominently important in explaining Yokohama workers’ everyday living and working experiences as creative labor. Unexpectedly, this study found that these moral and ethical sentiments and actions, which take on the role of retaining their labor motivation, actually limit the development of political subjects who can resist given precarious working conditions and thereby hinder them from building a collective solidarity as “workers.” Thus this investigation concludes that the creative worker’s subjectivity retreats to solely a moral dimension rather than to a political one. Through this finding, this study explores whether the articulation of moral-political and social values in the course of cultural work can evolve from creative workers’ moral and ethical sensitivities and actions.  相似文献   

Committee standards battles in the era of convergence: Implications for smart systems     

《International Journal of Information Management》2021

By now, there have been many standards battles fought within the same industry or by multiple industries in the market-based standardization. In these battles, incompatible standards compete to win market dominance. While there is some research on standards battles found within a single committee, competitions in the committee-based standardization between standards from different committees or SDOs are underexplored. This paper categorizes the types of standards battles by the mode of standardization and the heterogeneity of actors. A new type referred to as ‘committee standards battles for converging systems’ is introduced and the dynamics of such battles is explored with two cases. The battle between the electric vehicle charging and the smart meter communication standard and the battle between two different vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication standards are analyzed. The failure in achieving compatibility between different committee standards on the same frequency bands results in communication interference that adversely affects the operation of smart systems. Social incompatibilities between actors and alliances from a mix of industries with vested interests towards a particular standard complicate the battling scene. The findings provide implications in terms of heterogeneity, actors, and government role in standards battles.  相似文献
