Abstract Poly-3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene: polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT/PSS) has revolutionized the field of smart textiles as an advanced conductive polymer, offering an unprecedented combination of high electrical conductivity, solution processability, and mechanical conformability. Despite extensive research in PEDOT/PSS-coated fabrics over the past decade, a critical challenge remains in finding the delicate balance between enhanced conductivity and washing durability required for real-world wearable applications. Hence, this study investigates the electrical conductivity and durability properties of PEDOT/PSS-based conductive fabrics for wearable electronics. By carefully controlling the doping concentration of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), an optimal conductivity of 8.44 ± 0.21 × 10⁻³ S… More >

Abstract 3D printing of metamaterials has garnered significant attention in recent years, as metamaterials, especially the triple periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structures, are engineered to exhibit extraordinary properties. However, challenges such as limited structural designs and lack of real-world applications have restrained the development of 3D printed metamaterials. Herein, a series of TPMS structures were designed and printed via selective laser sintering, and their mechanical energy absorption capabilities under the quasi-static compression condition were compared. Novel TPMS structures were then designed by blending the investigated TPMS structures, and their compressive properties and deformation mechanism were explored. More >

Abstract The Internet of Wearable Things (IoWT) or Wearable Internet of Things (WIoT) is a new paradigm that combines IoT and wearable technology. Advances in IoT technology have enabled the miniaturization of sensors embedded in wearable devices and the ability to communicate data and access real-time information over low-power mobile networks. IoWT devices are highly interdependent with mobile devices. However, due to their limited processing power and bandwidth, IoWT devices are vulnerable to cyberattacks due to their low level of security. Threat modeling and frameworks for analyzing cyber threats against existing IoT or low-power protocols have… More >

Abstract Accidents are still an issue in an intelligent transportation system, despite developments in self-driving technology (ITS). Drivers who engage in risky behavior account for more than half of all road accidents. As a result, reckless driving behaviour can cause congestion and delays. Computer vision and multimodal sensors have been used to study driving behaviour categorization to lessen this problem. Previous research has also collected and analyzed a wide range of data, including electroencephalography (EEG), electrooculography (EOG), and photographs of the driver’s face. On the other hand, driving a car is a complicated action that requires… More >

Abstract The World Health Organization (WHO) refers to the 2019 new coronavirus epidemic as COVID-19, and it has caused an unprecedented global crisis for several nations. Nearly every country around the globe is now very concerned about the effects of the COVID-19 outbreaks, which were previously only experienced by Chinese residents. Most of these nations are now under a partial or complete state of lockdown due to the lack of resources needed to combat the COVID-19 epidemic and the concern about overstretched healthcare systems. Every time the pandemic surprises them by providing new values for various… More >

Abstract Nowadays, smart wearable devices are used widely in the Social Internet of Things (IoT), which record human physiological data in real time. To protect the data privacy of smart devices, researchers pay more attention to federated learning. Although the data leakage problem is somewhat solved, a new challenge has emerged. Asynchronous federated learning shortens the convergence time, while it has time delay and data heterogeneity problems. Both of the two problems harm the accuracy. To overcome these issues, we propose an asynchronous federated learning scheme based on double compensation to solve the problem of time… More >
