The realized sensor chip has been applied for pH and penicillin concentration measurements, electrical monitoring of polyelectrolyte multilayer formation, and the label-free electrical detection of consecutive deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) hybridization and denaturation events.}, language = {en} } @incollection{HeuermannFinger2014, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Finger, Torsten}, title = {Microwave Spark Plug for Very High-Pressure Conditions}, series = {Ignition systems for gasoline engines}, booktitle = {Ignition systems for gasoline engines}, editor = {G{\"u}nther, Michael}, publisher = {DCM Druck}, address = {Meckenheim}, pages = {269 -- 282}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @incollection{BudaSchuermannWollert2010, author = {Buda, Aurel and Sch{\"u}rmann, Volker and Wollert, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Wireless technologies in factory automation}, series = {Factory automation / ed. by Javier Silvestre-Blanes}, booktitle = {Factory automation / ed. by Javier Silvestre-Blanes}, publisher = {Intech}, address = {London}, isbn = {978-953-7619-42-8}, pages = {29 -- 50}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @incollection{SchuermannBudaJonkeretal.2010, author = {Sch{\"u}rmann, Volker and Buda, Aurel and Jonker, Stefan and Palmhof, Norman and Wollert, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Wireless in future automotive applications}, series = {Mobile and wireless communications network layer and circuit level design / ed. by Salma Ait Fares ...}, booktitle = {Mobile and wireless communications network layer and circuit level design / ed. by Salma Ait Fares ...}, publisher = {Intech}, address = {London}, isbn = {978-953-307-042-1}, pages = {71 -- 92}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @incollection{PoghossianSchoening2006, author = {Poghossian, Arshak and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Silicon-based chemical and biological field-effect sensors}, series = {Encyclopedia of Sensors.

One approach is to remove the safety fences that separate human and industrial robot to combine their skills. This collaboration possesses a certain risk for the human co-worker, leading to numerous safety concepts to protect him. The human needs to be monitored and tracked by a safety system using different sensors. The proposed system consists of a RGBD camera for surveillance of the common working area, an array of optical distance sensors to compensate shadowing effects of the RGBD camera and a laser range finder to detect the co-worker when approaching the work cell. The software for collision detection, path planning, robot control and predicting the behaviour of the co-worker is based on the Robot Operating System (ROS). A first prototype of the work cell shows that with advanced algorithms from the field of mobile robotics a very flexible safety concept can be realized: the robot not simply stops its movement when detecting a collision, but plans and executes an alternative path around the obstacle.}, language = {en} } @incollection{MottaghyMajorowiczRath2009, author = {Mottaghy, Darius and Majorowicz, Jacek and Rath, Volker}, title = {Ground Surface Temperature Histories Reconstructed from Boreholes in Poland: Implications for Spatial Variability}, series = {The Polish Climate in the European Context: An Historical Overview}, booktitle = {The Polish Climate in the European Context: An Historical Overview}, publisher = {Springer Science+Business Media}, address = {Dordrecht}, isbn = {978-90-481-3167-9}, doi = {10.1007/978-90-481-3167-9_17}, pages = {375 -- 387}, year = {2009}, language = {en} } @incollection{GoeckelSchifferWagneretal.2015, author = {Goeckel, Tom and Schiffer, Stefan and Wagner, Hermann and Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, title = {The Video Conference Tool Robot ViCToR}, series = {Intelligent Robotics and Applications : 8th International Conference, ICIRA 2015, Portsmouth, UK, August 24-27, 2015, Proceedings, Part II}, booktitle = {Intelligent Robotics and Applications : 8th International Conference, ICIRA 2015, Portsmouth, UK, August 24-27, 2015, Proceedings, Part II}, publisher = {Springer}, isbn = {978-3-319-22876-1}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-22876-1_6}, pages = {61 -- 73}, year = {2015}, abstract = {We present a robotic tool that autonomously follows a conversation to enable remote presence in video conferencing. When humans participate in a meeting with the help of video conferencing tools, it is crucial that they are able to follow the conversation both with acoustic and visual input. To this end, we design and implement a video conferencing tool robot that uses binaural sound source localization as its main source to autonomously orient towards the currently talking speaker. To increase robustness of the acoustic cue against noise we supplement the sound localization with a source detection stage. Also, we include a simple onset detector to retain fast response times. Since we only use two microphones, we are confronted with ambiguities on whether a source is in front or behind the device. We resolve these ambiguities with the help of face detection and additional moves. We tailor the system to our target scenarios in experiments with a four minute scripted conversation. In these experiments we evaluate the influence of different system settings on the responsiveness and accuracy of the device.}, language = {en} } @incollection{NiemuellerReuterEwertetal.2015, author = {Niemueller, Tim and Reuter, Sebastian and Ewert, Daniel and Ferrein, Alexander and Jeschke, Sabina and Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, title = {Decisive Factors for the Success of the Carologistics RoboCup Team in the RoboCup Logistics League 2014}, series = {RoboCup 2014: Robot World Cup XVIII}, booktitle = {RoboCup 2014: Robot World Cup XVIII}, publisher = {Springer}, isbn = {978-3-319-18615-3}, pages = {155 -- 167}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @incollection{SrivastavaKnolleHoyleretal.2015, author = {Srivastava, Alok and Knolle, Friedhart and Hoyler, Friedrich and Scherer, Ulrich W. and Schnug, Ewald}, title = {Uranium Toxicity in the State of Punjab in North-Western India}, series = {Management of Natural Resources in a Changing Environment}, booktitle = {Management of Natural Resources in a Changing Environment}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-12559-6}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-12559-6_21}, pages = {271 -- 275}, year = {2015}, abstract = {Lately there has been an increasing concern about uranium toxicity in some districts of Punjab State located in the North Western part of India after the publication of a report (Blaurock-Busch et al. 2010) which showed that the concentration of uranium in hair and urine of children suffering from physical deformities, neurological and mental disorder from Malwa region (Fig. 1) of Punjab State was manifold higher than the reference ranges.
