Underwater cultural heritage (UCH) is a valuable resource that preserves humanity’s historical legacy, offering insights into traditions and civilisations. Despite its significance, UCH faces threats from inadequate regulatory frameworks, insufficient conservation technologies, and climate-induced environmental changes. This paper proposes an innov...

Este trabajo detalla la integración de una línea de ensamblaje de componentes electrónicos en la asignatura "Tec-nología de Producción y Fabricación" del Grado en Ingeniería Electrónica Industrial y Automática. Se describe el proceso de in-corporación de los equipos clave: serigrafía semiautomática, pick & place, y horno de soldadura por reflujo. S...

Se presenta un programa de prácticas de la asignatura "Sistemas Electrónicos e Instrumentación Industrial" del Máster Universitario en Ingeniería Industrial (MUII). El uso de Arduino permite conseguir un programa completo de prácticas de bajo coste para trabajar con distintos tipos de sensores, estudiar buses de comunicaciones como SPI o I2C y comu...

Due to the increase in life expectancy, the prevalence of chronic, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases has increased. In this regard, the increase in cognitive impairment (CI), both in the mild phase, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and in the more severe cases defined as dementia, is also noteworthy. It has been observed that between 5...

Recent advances in wireless communication technologies have led to the rapid development of branches of engineering, such as those related to the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm. IoT interconnects devices with the intention of adding value or reducing costs in production processes. In turn, many productive sectors are benefiting from the advances...

In this research, a vagus nerve stimulator has been developed and miniaturized for use in epilepsy research. The board contains all the components necessary for its operation during the standard duration of the experiments, being possible to control it once implanted and even being able to reuse it. The VNS system has been designed for rodents sinc...

Cada año aumentan el número de artículos e investigaciones realizadas en el campo del Big Data, así como el impacto que ha tenido en las diferentes industrias. Además de todos los avances que ha permitido esta nueva forma de utilizar los datos, también se recogen los diferentes retos que plantea esta nueva forma de captura y uso de los datos y de l...

Recent theoretical studies demonstrate the advantages of using decentralized architectures over traditional centralized architectures for real-time Power Distribution Systems (PDSs) operation. These advantages include the reduction of the amount of data to be transmitted and processed when performing state estimation in PDSs. The main contribution...

Spain’s agricultural and livestock sector is competitive and powerful on a global scale, especially in relation to fruit and vegetables, pork, wine and olive oil, which are produced and exported in large amounts. The development of the sector and of new technological advances makes it possible to generate innovative solutions adapted to the current...

It is estimated that we spend one-third of our lives at work. It is therefore vital to adapt traditional equipment and systems used in the working environment to the new technological paradigm so that the industry is connected and, at the same time, workers are as safe and protected as possible. Thanks to Smart Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) a...

This article introduces the concern that exists in the wider economic world concerning the developments carried out in Smart Cities. The various studies that have been developed capture the economic approach by focusing on specific economic development theories. This article initially provides a theoretical response to the need for a joint approach...

Doll and robot are effective and beneficial non-pharmacological therapies applied in different clinical settings. Doll therapy (DT), principally based in Bowlby's attachment theory, uses an empathy or lifelike baby doll to conduct caring behaviors of it. Robot therapies (RT) use care robots with a friendly attitude and appearance that create emotio...
