Abstract: This disclosure relates to a system and method for measuring average temperature of mixed fluid in an enclosed chamber. Measurement is based on two independent principle as measuring variation in acoustic wave velocity and variation in resistivity that works on a single setup. First principle is based on measuring acoustic wave velocity in a known medium, which is isolated from the surrounding. The system comprises a primary pipe and a secondary pipe, wherein the ends of the pipes reside inside the enclosed chamber. The primary pipe is made out of good conductor of heat and filled with air. Ends of the primary pipe is fitted with a transducers have one transmitter at one end and one receiver at another end. Average temperature of the mixed fluid is measured based on the variations in sound velocity of acoustic wave passed through the primary pipe and resistivity variations of the primary pipe.

Abstract: A method and system is provided for assessing the learning experience of the person by monitoring the mental state of the person. The method involves measuring the brain signal, skin conductance using GSR device, and heart rate variability using the pulse oximeter. These physiological signals are measured when the person is performing an activity such as the modified Stroop test. Once the activity is performed, an offline questionnaire is also filled by the person. Based on the comparison of the offline questionnaire and the physiological signals, a model is generated. This model is used to assess the learning experience of the person. According to another embodiment, a method is also provided for maintaining the steady flow state of a person while performing any activity.

Abstract: Temperature measurement is an important part of many potential applications in the fields of metallurgy. Conventional temperature measurement methods do not provide accurate and precise average temperature of fluid inside an enclosed chamber. The present disclosure provides multi-sensory techniques for measuring average temperature of mixed fluid inside a chamber. The average temperature is measured based on acoustic interferometry technique on standing wave and inputs received from one or more sensors and radar. The present disclosure utilizes radar to compensate the effect of fumes, noise based on Doppler effect. Further, the inputs received from the one or more sensors are used to determine the concentration of one or more fluids present in the chamber. The method of proposed disclosure depends on the principle of dependence of temperature on sound speed in fluid. So, measurement of sound speed can be mapped to report average temperature of mixed fluid inside the chamber.

Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to tracking motion of target in indoor environment. The method includes estimating an initial position of the target in a mesh grid form based on radar data captured from radar devices installed in the indoor environment. For a subsequent target movement, a subsequent position of the target is estimated in the mesh grid form based on the initial position and a resultant velocity vector of the target. A number of outlier grid-points is computed with a threshold number, and based on comparison the outlier grid-points are either replaced with interpolated grid-points or the subsequent position of the target is repaired based on a probable position of the target obtained from at least one of a linear regression based analysis of prior positions of the target, prior knowledge of the target velocity and sampling interval, and a trilateration based technique.

Abstract: Health signal monitoring using continuous wave microwave signals is often affected by phase wrapping and null point detection issues. The disclosure herein generally relates to health monitoring, and, more particularly, to a method and a monitoring system for health monitoring using Amplitude Modulated Continuous Wave (AMCW) microwave signals. In this design of the monitoring system, the AMCW microwave signal comprises of a carrier signal and a modulating signal. The modulating signal is used for measuring heart rate and breathing rate of a subject, while the carrier signal is used to tune antenna size in the monitoring system. As the probing wavelength and the antenna size are independent of each other in this design of the monitoring system, the probing wavelength can be adjusted such that effect of the phase wrapping can be minimized. The system addresses the null point measurement problem by quadrature modulating the modulating signal.

The person is asked to perform a series of activities including staying in eye closed rest state and baseline state and performing a trial state. Simultaneously, EEG signal and GSR signal of the person are captured. The EEG signal and the GSR signal are preprocessed and segmented.

The most inactive window is then identified out of the first set of inactive states. The most inactive window is determined from the rest interval of the person. The inactive window is used as the modified baseline to measure the cognitive load of the person.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to non-contact inspection of material for identifying and estimate composition of a material under inspection. Traditionally, material inspection is an invasive process involving contact based approaches. A radar-based approach requires placement of the radar at a specific location, which is a challenge since amplitude of the reflected signal, depends on the distance from the material under inspection. The present disclosure addresses this technical problem by providing a Continuous Wave radar-based approach that is based on absolute slope at extrema points on the reflected signal from the material under inspection.
