A prosthesis is an equipment provided to people who lost one or some parts of their limbs to help them having almost normal behaviors in daily or hard activities. The convenience and intelligence of devices should create easiness and flexibility for users. Artificial devices require interdisciplinary collaboration from neurosurgeons, surgical surgeons, physiotherapists and equipment development. Computer engineering plays a crucial role in the design step, supporting manufacturing, training and recognition to match the desirability of customers. Moreover, users need a wide range of different options such as an aesthetic functional material, a myoelectric mechanism, a body-powered appliance or an activity specified device. Thus, the flexible configuration, the proper features and the cost are some important factors that drive user's selection to the prosthesis. In this article, we describe an effective and powerful solution for analyzing, designing hardware and implementing software to train and recognize hand gestures for prosthetic arms. Moreover, we provide evaluation data of the method compared with similar approaches to support our design and implementation. This is fairly a complete system, making it a convenient solution for hand-cutoff people to control prosthetic hands using their electromyography signals. Statistical results with evaluations show that the device can respond correspondingly and the method creates promisingly recognition data after correct training processes. The prosthetic hardware implementation has also been simulated using a Light-emitting diode (LED) hand model with a high accuracy result.

An Giang Province is one of the key economic regions of Mekong Delta and of Vietnam. With the development of urbanization and industrialization, An Giang has been suffering a burden from natural disasters, including salinity intrusion, drought, and riverbank erosion, due to natural and anthropological drivers. Amongst them, riverbank erosion is a key problem of the An Giang province, caused by changes in hydrological and sediment characteristics because of hydropower development and sand exploitation in the upstream part. In this study, we investigated the riverbank changes by using the water extraction index based on the Landsat imagery data. Amongst three extraction indices, such as Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI), Modified Normalized Water Index (MNDWI), and Automated Water Extraction Index (AWEI), AWEI was identified the suitable index for the study area replied on the assessment of the index performance in extracting the riverbank in the four test sites in An Giang province (An Phu District, Vinh Hoa District, Cho Moi District, and Vam Nao River). Based on that, AWEI was then used for riverbank extraction for the study area in the period 1989-2015. After using the AWEI riverbank extracting method, Linear Regression Rate (LRR) had been applied to estimate the rate of the riverbank changes in the study area. The results stated that the rate of riverbank erosion was high in meandering river segments and upper part of islets, such as Tan Chau (-33m/year), Cho Moi (-36m/year) and Vam Nao (-3.07m/year). Besides analyzing the rate of erosion, this research also discusses some potential reasons as well as protection method to mitigate this problem. This study reveals that it is crucial to take sustainable measures to mitigate erosion in An Giang province.

This paper presents the design of the VIAM-AUV2000 autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) with a built-in cylinder for floatation and counterbalance. The modular structure, including mechanical design, electronic system, and control algorithm, ensures continuous operation for the vehicle at a depth of 50 meters underwater. The main content will consist of two parts: the mechanical implementation and the electrical system. The mechanical implementation part will focus on calculating ship hull profile and material selection; computing and simulating stress and distortion on ship hull and waterproof covering using finite element method with NX Nastran; analyzing and planning cylinder and counterbalance arrangements. At the same time, the advantages of hybrid AUV design inspired from the traditional one with thruster and fins, as well as the underactuated glider form using counterbalance and cylinder for diving and floating, are discussed specifically in the upcoming sections. The electrical system for the robot is also mentioned and clarified through the selection of sensors, actuators, and hardware design to ensure stable operation for the diving robot at a depth of 50m and operate continuously for long periods underwater by using traditional AUV mode and glider mode. Some experimental results of thruster and three-axis tilt estimators with an error of less than 1o are also presented in this paper.

This paper concerned with the development and implementation of smart street lighting control system based using Led lamp and Lora Wireless communication. Smart street lamps have been developed for over several years. These technologies have played an important role in urban safety, energy conservation. Currently, a traditional street lights are automatically turn on or off based on timer or day/night sensor. LEDs are now the standard replacement for legacy lighting in most cities around the world. At the same time, smart controls are becoming more mainstream and are increasingly installed alongside LED deployments. Recently, the conventional light sources are replaced by Led, which have so many advantages such as: energy savings, long lifetime, high reliability, pure light color, fast response, and friendliness to the environment. Furthermore, the intensity of the LED can be controlled easily. In this paper, the smart lighting system is designed to control and monitor devices via wireless transmission frequencies below 1 GHz. The system will include many types of devices connected to each other by a gateway. The transmit distance is about 2km in the urban area and up to 5km in rural area. The proposed smart street public lighting provides some advantages features such as: Automatic mode, Remote control mode, Connection disconnection mode, Manual direct operation mode. The smart lighting system has been built at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology to meet the standards for data transmission. And some experimental resutls are provided to show the effectiveness of the porposed system.
