TALKING ROCK APP: TO ENHANCE STUDENTS LEARNING IN INTRODUCTION TO GEOLOGY

The Covid-19 pandemic occurred at a time of major revolution in the geosciences – the era of digital geology. Digital talking rock app software shared with the wider audience through online and offiine platforms are a cornerstone of this digital geological revolution. Teaching geology with digital tools and app advances students' learning experience by providing access to highquality, enhancing visualization and improving data integration. Similarly, active use of talking rock app to integrate new field observations as well as laboratory will facilitate more effective fieldwork, qualitative and quantitative research. Talking rock app allow us to bring geoscientists to the digitally, which is particularly important in view of the Covid19 pandemic that restricts travel and thus direct access to rock museum. Talking rock is an android app that gives information about rock specimen about their physical properties. In this app, rock itself gives information to user after scanning the QR code or by selecting the number that is assigns to each rock specimen its looks like rock is talking with us. Arock gives information like its Common name, chemical composition, hardness, state, luster and its occurrence. This is currently working in English languages. Information of 40 species of rock specimen which is present in Rock Museum of Geology Department of G. S. Tompe Arts, Commerce & Science College, Chadur Bazar stored in this app. It was first time launched in this college at 4th Sept. 2021. (This is first type of Interactive app from India). This app is work online and offiine also. It was published in Google Play store on 3rd Sept. 2021 and it is registered for copyright in 2020.

The scalp localization system of neurosurgery based on augmented reality theory / 生物医学工程学杂志

Neurosurgery navigation system, which is expensive and complicated to operate, has a low penetration rate, and is only found in some large medical institutions. In order to meet the needs of other small and medium-sized medical institutions for neurosurgical navigation systems, the scalp localization system of neurosurgery based on augmented reality (AR) theory was developed. AR technology is used to fuse virtual world images with real images. The system integrates computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with the patient's head in real life to achieve the scalp positioning. This article focuses on the key points of Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard, three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction, and AR image layer fusion in medical image visualization. This research shows that the system is suitable for a variety of mobile phones, can achieve two-dimensional (2D) image display, 3D rendering and clinical scalp positioning application, which has a certain significance for the auxiliary neurosurgical head surface positioning.

Desarrollo de aplicativo prototipo en QT para apoyo a la hospitalización domiciliaria en dispositivos móviles Android / Prototype development application in QT for home care support for Android mobile devices / Desenvolvimento de aplicação de protótipos em QT para apoio atendimiento domiciliar para dispositivos móveis Android

Resumen El monitoreo constante de los signos vitales de un paciente con enfermedades cardiovasculares es de vital importancia. En el artículo se presenta el diseño de un aplicativo móvil, orientado a la telemedicina, para sistema operativo Android en el entorno de desarrollo QT. El aplicativo realiza peticiones de variables médicas y señal del electrocardiograma (ECG) por medio de interfaz USB a una red de sensores conectada al cuerpo del paciente, almacenándolas en una base de datos. El aplicativo activa alarmas para informar sobre eventos particulares y envía mensajes de texto a un grupo de personas denominado círculo de acompañamiento. Para probar el funcionamiento de la aplicación se realiza una serie de pruebas que consisten en medir el tiempo en que la información está disponible en la base de datos luego de realizar la petición a la red de sensores, y mostrarla en pantalla; los resultados arrojan tiempos promedios de 0,5 segundos por trama, y de 120-150 segundos una señal de 30 segundos de ECG. En estas pruebas se mide constantemente el consumo de batería del dispositivo y se compara con el consumo cuando la aplicación no está realizando peticiones, encontrando una diferencia de 4% para periodos de 1 hora.

Interference Detection and Quality Assessment of Pulse Signal on Android Platform / 中国医疗器械杂志

The collection process of the pulse signal is easily disturbed by the noise, that will reduce the quality of the signal, and affect its applications on the healthy monitoring system. In order to solve this problem, this paper analyzes the causes of the generation of interference during pulse signal acquisition and the characteristics of interference performance, and puts forward the corresponding detection algorithm for pulse signal interference section. Based on this algorithm, a Cascaded Layer-by-Layer Discrimination method is proposed to evaluate the quality of pulse signals, in which pulse signals are divided into available signals and unavailable signals. Experimental results on PC and Android platform show that the proposed algorithm can detect the interference segment accurately in the pulse signal in real time, and improve the usability of the evaluation for pulse signal.

Smart Health Surveillance with Automated Database Using Android Mobile Device

ABSTRACT Smart Health Surveillance system is to measure and display the Electrocardiogram (ECG) and temperature of patient's body continuously and also to communicate to the doctor. The system measures ECG using infrared sensor and the temperatures at oral and wrist of the patient using temperature sensors. Microcontroller, receives the data from the sensors, displays the same and communicates to the web server automatically. In the existing system, patient's vital parameters are obtained and the obtained values are entered into database and then uploaded into a web-based server manually. The existing system has no alert signal, during abnormal condition to the surrounding and to the doctor. The proposed system consists of a visualization module of the server program, which graphically displays the recorded biomedical signals on android mobile devices used by doctors at the receiver end. It also gives a buzzer or an alarm in case of abnormal condition of the patient.

Development of a medication reminder and the research on the improvement of medication compliance / 安徽医科大学学报

To develop a medication reminder based on Android platform, which can be used to set up personalized reminders quickly and record the patient' s medication time-stamp and related information. In addition, the effect of using the reminder on medication compliance was studied. 14 subjects participated in the evaluation of medica-tion compliance. The differences of dosage and medication rate between the group using and without using reminder were investigated. The dosage and medication rate were got by the pill counting. The Wilcoxon matched -pairs signed rank test showed that the dosage and the medication rate of the group using reminder were higher than that without using reminder significantly(Z= -2. 93, P =0. 003 ). The results demonstrated that the use of the re-minder can improve the medication dose and rate significantly,indicate that the reminder might be a new technical support for clinical research on medication compliance, and also might reduce the workload for medical staff and patients.
