Brain Gate is a brain implant system developed by the bio-tech company, Cyber kinetics. The development of the brain gate system brain-computer interface is to enable those with severe paralysis and other neurological conditions to live more productively and independently.
Smart dust is a tiny electronic device designed to capture mountains of information about its surroundings while literally floating on air.
Wireless Integrated Network Sensors provide a new monitoring and control capability for transportation, manufacturing, health care, environmental monitoring and safety and security. They combine sensing, signal processing, decision capability, and wireless networking capability in a compact, low power system.
Human Computer Interaction (HCI) as the name suggests, is related to humans and computers and the way, both interact with each other.Because human-computer interaction studies a human and a machine in conjunction, it draws from supporting knowledge on both the machine and the human side. On the machine side, techniques in computer graphics, operating systems, programming languages, and development environments are relevant. On the human side, communication theory, graphic and industrial design disciplines, linguistics, social sciences, cognitive psychology, and human factors are relevant. Attention to human-machine interaction is important, because poorly designed human- machine interfaces can lead to many unexpected problems.In particular, core vision techniques (body, gesture, gaze) and affective interaction (facial expression recognition, and emotion in audio) which are needed for Multimodal Human Computer Interaction (MMHCI) research.
Intrusion Detection System can be used for monitoring file system for changes. Intrusion Detection System can be helpful in detecting if an intrusion has been occurred and what changes are made to system.
Mobile Ad hoc networks are a new paradigm of wireless network, offering unrestricted mobility without any underlying infrastructure such as base station or mobile switching centers. Basically ad hoc network is a collection of nodes communicating with each other by forming a multi-hop network.
Micropayment system provides a means of transferring small monetary amounts and serve as a convenient alternative to traditional payment arrangements. Micropayments refer to low value electronic transactions. They provide an alternative revenue source for content providers beyond advertising and subscriptions (W3C).
