In this paper, a new integrated control system via visual-servoing and cascaded proportional derivative (PD) controllers for an autonomous hexacopter is proposed. The spherical image based visual servoing is designed to control the hexacopter to the desired pose with respect to an arbitrary target in three-dimensional (3D) workspace based on images

Pulse oximetry is a well-known procedure used to measure the level of oxygen (oxygen saturation) in the blood. The measurement of oxygen saturation level is of highly significance in supervising a patient’s health condition. This is most commonly supervised by a normal pulse oximeter, which has been extensively endorsed around the world as a meas

Citizens’ rights of women and youth are enshrined in the Qur’Én. Both men and women, regardless of their age, social class and educational level, are equal as citizens, but not identical, in their rights and responsibilities. This study suggests that Islam has empowered women with the most progressive rights since the seventh century. There wa

Given current technologies, marketers are employing several techniques to differentiate their brands from others due to intense competition and low switching cost. Brand personality is one is one such approach. Aaker’s brand personality model with its five dimensions (sincerity, excitement, competence, sophistication, and ruggedness) has been use

Wireless sensor networks are considered as the enabling technology for multiple smart grid applications such as remote metering, direct load control, renewable energy integration, substation monitoring etc. The IEEE 802.15.4 standard provides a basic foundation by defining the physical and MAC layer of the low power wireless sensor network. Carrier

Micro gap heat sinks with internal micro fins are potential candidates for evaporative cooling of miniature electronic devices. Generation of turbulence during flow boiling in a micro gap is an important issue in two-phase heat transfer analysis. Surface roughness and fins play important role in turbulence generation. In this paper, effects of micr

Micro gap heat sinks are potential candidates of evaporative cooling. Additional fins in micro gap enhance heat transfer rate by increasing surface area and generating turbulence. The scope of this paper is to numerically investigate the influence of various geometrical parameters on thermal and hydraulic performance of a micro finned micro gap dur

The Ultra-Wideband (UWB) communications have become a hot topic for researchers. To mitigate the interference with the existing WiMAX (3.3 GHz – 3.6 GHz) and WLAN (5.15 GHz – 5.825 GHz) systems, a Dual BandNotched antenna for Ultra-Wideband applications is proposed. The antenna consists of rectangular patch, a 50 Ω Microstrip line and partial

History is the storehouse of knowledge and students of history must know how and why this knowledge is stored. Many sophistic authors have manipulated information about the human past in order to serve their selfcentered motivation. A critical evaluation and a rational assessment of such manipulation may be recognised as Islamization of Knowledge.
