Abstract:
Tongue-computer interfaces allow people with upper limb disability to control a computer with their tongue. A number of assistive devices, that make use of this technology, have been developed in the last two decades: some employ contact impedance, membrane switches, or miniature joysticks, while others use magnetic or piezoelectric sensors. This thesis proposes a new tongue-computer interface, which was designed to enable users to manipulate a computer pointer by moving the tip of their tongue over an intraoral electrode array. The system maps the contact between the tongue and the electrodes, detects the movements of the tongue, and translates it into pointer movements. Compared to similar devices, the MouthPad does not require any head gear or sensors, and does not employ heavy signal processing. The hardware is simplified by using a small number of electrodes and only one output channel, multiplexed over the electrode array. A low power footprint allows the potential miniaturization of the system, so that it could fit on palatal retainer, and allow for permanent unobtrusive usage. The performance of the device was evaluated by measuring the throughput and the accuracy as defined in ISO 9241-9 standard. Two extra measures proposed in the literature, target re-entry and movement offset, were used for the evaluation of the accuracy. The measured throughput values were situated between 78% and 88% of the throughput rates of regular computer joysticks.

Abstract:
"Speech enhancement in an automobile is a challenging problem because interference can come from engine noise, fans, music, wind, road noise, reverberation, echo, and passengers engaging in other conversations. Hands-free microphones make the situation worse because the strength of the desired speech signal reduces with increased distance between the microphone and talker. Automobile safety is improved when the driver can use a hands-free interface to phones and other devices instead of taking his eyes off the road. The demand for high quality hands-free communication in the automobile requires the introduction of more powerful algorithms. This thesis shows that a unique combination of five algorithms can achieve superior speech enhancement for a hands-free system when compared to beamforming or spectral subtraction alone. Several different designs were analyzed and tested before converging on the configuration that achieved the best results. Beamforming, voice activity detection, spectral subtraction, perceptual nonlinear weighting, and talker isolation via pitch tracking all work together in a complementary iterative manner to create a speech enhancement system capable of significantly enhancing real world speech signals. The following conclusions are supported by the simulation results using data recorded in a car and are in strong agreement with theory. Adaptive beamforming, like the Generalized Side-lobe Canceller (GSC), can be effectively used if the filters only adapt during silent data frames because too much of the desired speech is cancelled otherwise. Spectral subtraction removes stationary noise while perceptual weighting prevents the introduction of offensive audible noise artifacts. Talker isolation via pitch tracking can perform better when used after beamforming and spectral subtraction because of the higher accuracy obtained after initial noise removal. Iterating the algorithm once increases the accuracy of the Voice Activity Detection (VAD), which improves the overall performance of the algorithm. Placing the microphone(s) on the ceiling above the head and slightly forward of the desired talker appears to be the best location in an automobile based on the experiments performed in this thesis. Objective speech quality measures show that the algorithm removes a majority of the stationary noise in a hands-free environment of an automobile with relatively minimal speech distortion."

It can capture the user’s depth information and use the body to replace the traditional remote control machine, so every player can feel unprecedented entertainment experience. Kinect is reasonable and powerful, so it is attractive to a lot of developers in industry or researchers to develop innovated applications. The Kinect sensor has the limitation in the detection angle and range. If user will want to control many appliances, every appliance must prepare its dedicated device. According to this research, it only needs one Kinect that can control many appliances. Besides, this research uses an Arduino as IR LED controller to send remote control signals to operate machine. So user can use his hands to replace the remote control at home. Therefore, Kinect and Arduino can let our life be simple. When a user enters the sensing area, our system can detect the human skeleton by Microsoft Kinect SDK. Our system can also calculate the 3D transform to recover user&apos;&apos;s pose. If the user raises his hand to point at an appliance, he can specify that device to power on/off and use his gestures to control it. Four gestures are also defined for the most important control signals such as forward, backward, up and down. Our system can also extend to eight gestures for extra commands including escape command. The control system, without traditional remote controller on hand, can make the appliances control easier in digital home.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>電信工程系<br>88<br>Hands-free communication systems usually suffer from echo and environment noise. They exacerbate the communication quality. In this thesis, we present a unified approach of echo cancellation and noise control systems which are categorized into two classes. A new parallel structure is also proposed. We analyze and compare the residual error of both parallel and cascade structures. The theoretical analysis and the computer simulations show that the parallel structure has larger convergent ERLE than the cascade structure. We propose the implementation of impulse response measurements and suggest the subbanding parallel structure of echo and noise cancellation in a car chamber. This accelerates convergence rate and reduces the computation complexities.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>資訊工程系<br>87<br>In the conventional virtual reality navigation system, the viewing of the scene information is controlled by some peripherals, e.g. a mouse or a trackball. Users have to use their hands to control the device; this is quite inconvenient and unnatural. In this thesis, we will develop a facial tracking system using only one camera. We mount a calibrated TV camera in the front of the human face to properly capture the images of the human facial motions. We assume that the eyes and the mouth on the human face are coplanar in 3-D space, so a mathematical transformation can be derived to estimate the relationship between two different images of the same face. Furthermore, the facial motion parameter can be decomposed from the derived 3x3 transformation matrix. When the facial motion parameter are obtained, they can be transmitted to the VR navigation system to change the viewing specification. Hence, without using hands to control any input device, users can use head movement to browse the virtual world naturally. In our methods, we use a single camera mounted in the front of the human face, and carry out camera intrinsic calibration in advance. Then any rotation (mainly in the left-right or the up-down direction) and any translation (mainly in the front-back direction) of the head movement can be captured by the camera. We first select a reference face image from the captured images; this reference face image is generally taken when the human face is in a neutral pose with the face looking toward the camera. After that, we can use the derived formulation to determine the motion parameters of the head rotation (R3x3) and translation (T3x1) by making use of the reference face image and the currently captured facial image. Finally, the motion parameters are transmitted to the VR platform to do the viewing control.

Abstract:
This chapter provides a comprehensive review of current airway management set against its historical context and likely future developments in the field. Developments in equipment design are discussed against the background of a short review of the anatomy and physiology relevant to clinical airway management. An exploration of airway devices examines progress in design from the first facemasks and early hands-free delivery systems, through to current second-generation supraglottic airways and the future of providing improved protection against aspiration. Continuing advances in tracheal tube and cuff design are set alongside developments in techniques and equipment for laryngoscopy and possibilities for supplementing capnography in confirmation of correct tube placement within the trachea. The use of newer drugs to facilitate control of airway reflexes is also discussed. The importance of using optimal evidence-based techniques in airway management is highlighted in the reduction of complications. This covers preoperative evaluation of the airway, planning a strategy, induction of anaesthesia, and establishing a clear airway through to safe termination of anaesthesia, emergence, tracheal extubation, and recovery. Techniques for dealing with complications if they arise are described. Drawing on lessons from the Fourth National Audit Project of the Royal College of Anaesthetists and the Difficult Airway Society ‘Major complications of airway management in the United Kingdom’ (NAP4) and the general literature, emphasis is placed on high-risk areas of airway management and areas where the existing knowledge base is not covered in depth in other texts.

Abstract:
The control of a bicycle has been well studied when a steer torque is used as the control input. Less has been done to investigate the control of a hands free bicycle through the rider’s lean relative to the bicycle frame. In this work, we extend a verified benchmark bicycle model to include a rider with the ability to lean in and out of the plane of the bicycle frame. A multi-input multi-output LQR state feedback controller is designed with the control objective being the tracking of a reference yaw rate and rear wheel angular velocity through the use of rider lean torque and rear wheel (pedaling) torque. The LQR controller is tested on the nonlinear model and numerical simulation results are presented. Conclusions regarding the required lean angle of the rider relative to the bicycle frame necessary to execute a steady turn are made, as well as observations of the effects of right half plane zeros in the transfer function from rider lean torque to yaw rate.
