Vonk, Michiel (author)More and more devices are gaining some form of smartness either by sensing their environment on their own or by communication. An example of this is Smart Lighting, a field in which Chess Wise is active for over 6 years. By adding sensors and communication lighting can be controlled more efficiently. For example motion sensors to turn off...master thesis 2020

Overman, Jeroen (author)An Indoor Positioning System (IPS) is being developed at TOPIC Embed- ded Systems to track equipment in hospitals. The system should prevent the loss of equipment en make procedures more efficient. The IPS will con- sist of anchors and tags. Anchors are the radios that form an infrastructure in the building to localise tags that are placed on...master thesis 2019

Rijnders, Bart (author)The performance of gun and rocket propellants, which consist of energetic materials, is largely determined by their geometry and composition. Con- ventional production methods limit the performance by putting constraints on both. With additive manufacturing, or 3D-printing, there are signi- cantly fewer geometry constraints and together with the...master thesis 2019

Pathi Balaji, Vinay (author)The off-side rule is the most complicated rule in soccer. Today, off-sides are determined with the help of referees running on the sides of the field or with the help of cameras. However, for lower league games the installation of a camera based system is very expensive. <br/><br/>This work proposes a sensor based system that can be worn by...master thesis 2019

Schilder, Patrick (author)The Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to include billions of tiny devices that collect, process, and communicate sensory data. As of now, batteries power these devices. Batteries, however, are large, expensive, and short-lived - even the rechargeable ones wear out in a few years. Therefore, they are not a sustainable powering solution. Tiny...master thesis 2019

ter Horst, Thijs (author)A robot swarm of zebros (Dutch: ZEs Benige RObots) is being developed at the TU Delft, with the purpose of forming a large self-deploying sensor network that survey remote locations without the need for any pre-existing infrastructure, or be used for evaluating swarming algorithms in the field. Towards this goal, zebros need to be able to...master thesis 2019

Verhaert, Danilo (author)Tock is an embedded operating system that can run multiple concurrent, mutually distrustful processes, concurrently. Tock is written in Rust, a novel system programming language enforcing type safety at compile-time, and takes advantage of Rust's strong safety features. However, since Tock allows user-level applications to be written in any...master thesis 2018

van Senden, JanCees (author)Traffic congestion at signalized intersections is a big economical and ecological problem. Handcrafted traffic light controllers (TLCs) are currently used to minimize the impact, but they are expensive to design and maintain and their performance degrades over time. Predictive TLCs and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) form a potential...master thesis 2018

Johannsson, Bjarki (author)The use of Light Emitting Diodes (LED) as a main source of illumination<br/>can help in significantly reducing global energy conspumtions. The LED is<br/>well suited for modulating visible light, enabling a wireless communication<br/>channel. A popular topic in Visible Light Communication (VLC) research<br/>is to push data throughput past the...master thesis 2017

van der Reek, Menno (author)With the arrival of smart electricity meters energy consumption can be monitored continuously and displayed on external devices such as phones or tablets. As a consequence, users become more aware of their energy usage which may result in a reduction in energy consumption. Nevertheless, many countries in Europe still use an analog electricity...master thesis 2017

Wu, H. (author)Visible Light Communication has been intriguing both the industry and the academia for over a decade. However, most of the research efforts in this area only consider scenarios where the light emitted from the transmitters is constant. This is not true when Smart Lighting, a technology designed for more comfortable and energy efficient buildings...master thesis 2017

Nijdam, P.P. (author)With more and more battery-operated devices equiped with sensors, it is becoming increasingly relevant to focus not only on energy efficiency, but also on ensuring that the available energy is not spent before the battery will be recharged. In this thesis a strategy for adaptive sampling is proposed that adapts the sample rate while respecting a...master thesis 2017

Moreira Cardoso, L.A. (author)Studies have shown that fresh water is getting scarcer worldwide day by day. Most of the fresh water is being wasted on land fields for irrigation. Farmers waste so much fresh water, when watering their crops. To conserve water, measurements need to be done efficiently. However, soil moisture sensors currently available on the market are quite...master thesis 2017

Stolwijk, A.C. (author)Embedded Software appears in a variaty of systems and products. The software for these systems have special requirements. Firstly, embedded software needs to be very robust as it is usually deeply tucked away and not very visible to the user. Secondly, embedded systems have dedicated hardware the software has to work on, and finally embedded...master thesis 2016

IJntema, Wieger (author)Indoor localization is a topic that has been investigated for more than a decade. Yet, no single system exists that is widely adopted as the de facto localization standard. From a research perspective the goal is to obtain a solution that is general, simple and accurate. As the number of devices in the Internet of Things grow, a new set of...master thesis 2016

Efstathiadis, P. (author)Recently, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are becoming vital to a wide range of application domains, from precision agriculture and smart buildings to health systems and monitoring of humans, animals, crowds and robots. In particular, there is an increasing number of sensor devices that are worn by persons who interact with them on a daily basis...master thesis 2015

Spiridon, V.L. (author)In recent years, there is an increasing interest in the scientific community for development of algorithms targeting large-scale networks. In addition to their sheer size, these networks also exhibit various topology dynamics -- nodes join and exit at high rates (churn), are mobile and are not always reliable. Such extreme properties make...master thesis 2013

Turi, D. (author)In recent years the study of complex systems gained prominence. Since it is usually difficult to use classical mathematic models to understand these systems, scientists and engineers have to resort to simulations. Currently programming languages like CUDA C and OpenCL are available to run large scale simulations on a GPU architecture....master thesis 2013

Noels, A. (author)Wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs) suffer from interference making them unfeasible for actuators that require reliability. This asks for an IEEE 802.15.4 behavior analysis for building automation actuators and a robust WSAN solution. This thesis uses the IEEE 802.15.4 based JenNet communication stack for experiments to define, measure...master thesis 2012
