1. It felt a little bit different. Even though we can interact like opening camera, talking via microphone, it does not feel real, I felt sense of the loss of human-to-human interaction. Secondly, I felt disoriented after a few strolls around the gallery, but I believe it will get better and smoother if more people are invested in VR setting.

Hello Siriluk, thank you for sharing your VR experience. The drawings are creative as well as the handsome cat looks curious to the VR headset. I agree with you on the limitations of current VR HMD on realism. For example, in the cardboard museum scene, I cannot look anything under my feet due to spatial boundaries. Additionally, though head-tilt…[Read more]

Hello Chanapong, thank you for sharing your VR experience, we faced similar experiences like feeling dizzy and HMD being unfit to our phone. Additionally, you made a good point on what VR on HMD is lacking like the feeling of wind and the spatial sound. I think cave VR can improve those aspects but we need to take consideration of cyber-sickness…[Read more]

Hello Pacharapol, thank you for sharing your detailed VR experience with us. I experienced the same discomfort regarding some apps not being clickable and my phone being too large for the headset. And the ads that are not in the VR while you are on the headset is really annoying to me. I asked a friend of mine who wears glasses to try the VR…[Read more]

1. Usability and acceptability scores were the only significant benefits reported by the systematic review. Additionally, the reviewers believed that mobile apps have potential to promote vaccination uptake, even though the results on the improvement of vaccination uptake after apps usage in this study are not consistent yet.

Hello Cing, I totally agree with you on motion sickness, I felt the same. It needs smoother transition to alleviate the cybersickness. Unlike your phone, my phone is only a bit bigger than the cardboard space, not allowing extra space for touchscreen but just enough not to be able to close it properly. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Hello Ajarn, thank you for your article, I will check it.

Hello Phyo, thank you for your explanation and answers. Appreciate it.

Hello Ajarn, it is an electric kettle and when the water in it boiled, I opened the lid and put it near the opening so a lot of steam passes through it. I did not put it in the pot, only above the opening, that is why maybe the temperature did not change a lot while the sensor detects steam passing through.

Hello Pacharapol, thank you for sharing your thoughts and visuals. I like your suggestion of ‘having portable power supply’. Even when I was testing this sensor, it is not very easy to move it as it is connected to my laptop (its source of power). So, it would be better if they use power from portable supply so that I cannot move it around and use…[Read more]

1.1. I tried Google Cardboard app, VR roller coaster, VR Jurassic, and VR videos from YouTube with my headset.

1.2. I really love the museum VR in google cardboard the most. Even though I cannot interact with anything in the display, the samples of dinosaurs are so real and visually appealing. I like VR roller coaster videos as well, but after…[Read more]

Hello Cing, thank you for sharing step-up with us. The sharp climb in humidity is clearly visible in your chart after closing your widows and turning the AC on. I faced similar challenge like you as I did not change the baud and the output message is not readable. I did not know that the ESP8266 was using the current time from Wi-Fi and thanks for…[Read more]

Hello Phyo, it is good to hear that you did not face any major challenges when following the instructions provided by Ajarn. Yes, I also believe that it would be a great idea to incorporate the sensors with more features like email alerts so that it can operate like ‘smart’ IoT. For example, like in a cold chain or vaccines storage facilities in a…[Read more]

Hello Siriluk, I think it is a great initiative done by Chang et al by studying a framework for a remote patient monitoring by integrating multiple remote sensors and communication protocols for elderly populations. I think one of the challenges would be the cost of the step-up, since it utilizes multiple sensors including vital signs,…[Read more]

Hello Chanapong, yes, if we could integrate with other home devices like Google Home or Apple environment, it could enhance interoperability and smooth integration. Thank you for sharing your suggestions. Additionally, using these concepts in medical devices could change how we monitor vital conditions of a patient.

Hello Phyo, yes, if we could replace with powerful battery that can compensates the active hours of sensor, it could overcome electricity challenge. Thank you for your suggestion.

1. Visualization & Experimentation

2. Challenges & Solutions

The main challenge that I encountered during setup is ‘searching port’, during coding is ‘inputting wrong Wi-Fi GHz’, and during data logging is ‘having some delays in the first try’.
I resolved the first issue by identifying the names of ports and check again which names are…[Read more]

Hello Phyo, thank you for sharing the articles on non-invasive monitoring of glucose levels in diabetic patients. As we all know, it is a painstaking experience for diabetic patients to pick the finger often. So, I believe that if the researcher could minimize the system requirements and perform more research on different skin colors and other…[Read more]

Hello Tanatorn, thank you for sharing the paper on remote health monitoring system. I think it is a great system that have many potential applications in real life. It can reduce patient load as well as can make healthcare more accessible to the people in rural areas (if there is stable connection). However, I think it would be better if those…[Read more]

1. Summary

I chose “Design and Implementation of an IoT-Based Smart Home Security System” by Mohammad Asadul Hoque and Chad Davidson.
