Making your smartphone truly intelligent with SentianceSentiance
Sentiance can make your smartphone truly intelligent. We unlock contextual mobile experiences by mining sensor data on smartphones, wearables and connected devices. This enables companies worldwide to tap into a new level of mobile personalization and engagement. From mobile data to smart life.
The Follow-me bot is primarily humanoid with multiple degrees of freedom(one you might have seen in Real steel movie by Hugh Jackman). From the get go site, it has all the earmarks of being much the same as any other humanoid robot however the true contrast comes in when we go inside its working system. Follow-me bot lives up to expectations and follow the rules guideline for remote human type robot interface. It will take client's body movement as info and move much the same as him/her. It's more like offering sight to the robot and it'll mimicries client's movement. Dissimilar to another humanoid robot, the controller in this present bot's structural planning is the client himself. Controllers can steer correspond with the machine simply depending on body developments, and along these lines control the activities of remote robot progressively, coordination, and harmonization. The outline is a synthesis of new human movement catch strategies, sagacious executor controltechnique, system transmission, different sensor combination innovation. The name 'Follow-me bot' is utilized on the grounds that much the same as our follow-me, it'll move definitely in the same manner as we seem to be. This paper quickly portrays all the portions of the humanoid robot utilizing Kinect engineering.

Modelling of walking humanoid robot with capability of floor detection and dy...ijfcstjournal
Most humanoid robots have highly complicated structure and design of robots that are very similar to
human is extremely difficult. In this paper, modelling of a general and comprehensive algorithm for control
of humanoid robots is presented using Colored Petri Nets. For keeping dynamic balance of the robot,
combination of Gyroscope and Accelerometer sensors are used in algorithm. Image processing is used to
identify two fundamental issues: first, detection of target or an object which robot must follow; second,
detecting surface of the ground so that walking robot could maintain its balance just like a human and
shows its best performance. Presented model gives high-level view of humanoid robot's operations.
Real Time Robot Control System Software Description_3Jerry Sommerville
This paper distinguishes between batch mode operations of conventional industrial robots and real-time robot operations that the laser positioning system affords. It introduces the Flexbot, a sub-scale experimental robot for desk top demonstrations, and it introduces a "virtual reality" motion control technique that allows a user to interact with a "virtual robot" on the computer screen to perform real-time robot motion control of the Flexbot.
This presentation is about the basic haptic technology. what it is? how it works?? & what are the terms we need to know to make full understanding of this technology.

Russian Robotics: Jumpstarting to re-industrialisation with Skolkovo Albert Yefimov
Intelligent robotics is a hot topic for modern academics, capitalists and policy makers. Yet, it still fails to fulfill its potential to increase productivity, improve life for the elderly and safeguard humans from accidents. Intelligent, or advanced, robotics (IR) has every chance of becoming the next general-purpose technology like energy generation, the Internet or mass transit. Such GPTs are industries in themselves, but they also enable other industries to emerge. Being a renowned center for tech expertise, Skolkovo has defined a set of four priority areas in IR: improving cognition/navigation; natural human-machine interfaces; human augmentation systems; and medical robotics. Based on this set of priorities for Russia’s technological superiority, the Skolkovo Robotics Center (SRC) is capitalizing on the vast talent pool in Russia, especially in engineering, creating new opportunities for startup companies involved with robotics. Based on the lessons learned during Skolkovo’s development, this paper offers a general model of applicability and scalability of the Skolkovo experience elsewhere.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
