Implementation of Smart Technologies in the Mine

The basic methods and principles of mine safety systems have been considered in the paper. The algorithm of one possible smart device (smart helmet) is depicted. This algorithm describes the basic principles of this device. The device allows to find danger in the environment where the miner works, as well as monitors the condition of the miner. It can also quickly analyze this information and report the danger when it is detected. The system has been developed and programmed including basic modules for implementing this algorithm.

Sensors in Cyber-physical Systems Based on Android Operating System

The cyber-physical systems take the major part of any system that help users to interact with environment processes.

Cyber-physical systems are intelligent systems, which include networks of physical and computing components that interact on internal level. The basis for the development of various models of cyber-physical systems are the using of measuring instruments and their software. Measuring instruments are necessary to control technological parameters processes and the environment.

Investigation of Greenhouse Monitoring and Control System

Unsuitable climatic conditions, various natural disasters and instability and unpredictability of the weather significantly complicate cultivation, and sometimes make it even impossible. To ensure the best conditions for cultivation and the highest yields, farmers began to use greenhouses. However, in our hectic lives, people are constantly busy with something and there is no enough time. Long trips, business trips, vacations are also possible. It is becoming increasingly difficult to provide the necessary conditions for plants to grow on their own.

Applying Smartphones for Positioning in the Middle of the Room

The article deals with the problem of navigating indoors in conditions of satellite signal unavailability. In this case, alternative sources of positioning are used to determine the location of the objects. Use for navigation tasks inside the premises of the smartphone allows you to get comprehensive data on its operation. To solve the problem of navigation, the most important elements of the data sets is the unique identifier of the monitored device and the relative power level of the signal received from it.

SOFT (PERCEPTUAL) METROLOGY: DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION-MEASURING TECHNOLOGIES IN THE AREA “MEASURING THE IMPOSSIBLE”

The article focuses on the main problems of the development of the soft (perceptual) metrology as one of the new progressive areas of modern metrology that has appeared as a result of the dissemination of the information measuring technologies into the field of knowledge of non-physical phenomena and processes. An overview and analysis of well-known works on the topic of soft metrology are conducted.
