Item Car driver monitoring by networking vital data(2008) Murgoitio, J.; Fernández, J. I.; CCAMAccording to the "Ambient Intelligence" concept (AmI), Tecnalia-Automoción is working on several new applications and one of them is an ECG sensor integrated with the steering wheel. A previously developed prototype of a sensorized active headrest which was designed to maintain desired horizontal and vertical safety distances to head is related to this work. Even though no continuous ECG signal could be acquired from the steering wheel because hands position is changing, nevertheless it would be possible to sample this information and find out how some particular parameters are changing during the driving activity, like those based on HRV (Heart Rate Variability). Then, Tecnalia-Automoción is designing a networked solution with smart sensors and actuators integrating the IEEE 1451 standard group, to be applied to the previously mentioned active headrest prototype and this ECG sensor.Item A UPnP service to control and manage IEEE 1451 transducers in control networks(2012-03) Nieves, Álvaro Reina; Madrid, Natividad Martínez; Seepold, Ralf; Larrauri, Jesus Murgoitio; Larrinaga, Beñat Arejita; CCAMThis paper describes a new universal plug-and-play (UPnP) device, i.e., the Sensor Manager (SM), and its associated network service to access and control smart transducer networks based on the IEEE 1451 standard. In terms of the IEEE 1451, the SM shall be described as a network-capable application processor (NCAP) enhanced with features of the UPnP protocol, e.g., autodiscovery, autoconfiguration, and dynamic adaptation. The SM allows a control station located on the same control network to automatically detect any change in the sensor network. Moreover, the SM provides a general-purpose data-streaming mechanism based on the general event notification architecture and is fully UPnP compliant. The SM is presented as an element within an architecture where advanced features such as transmission modes can be configured. The model throughput is also discussed based on experimental results.
