Item A high packing ratio linear actuator for use in cable driven parallel manipulators(University of New Brunswick, 2018) Mathis, Andrew Craig; Carretero, Juan; Losier, YvesItem Design specifications for a commercially viable electrooculography acquisition device for the disabled(University of New Brunswick, 2015) Keys, Joshua E.; Parker, Philip; Losier, YvesIn this thesis, several key aspects in the design of a commercially viable electrooculography (EOG) acquisition device are discussed. The context for the needs of such a device, along with associated background in the EOG signal and previous work are presented. The topic of electrooculography electrodes is introduced with a thorough investigation into seven different types, all chosen for their relatively small size and practicality. This investigation includes the impedance settling time, sweep response, Warburg model parameters and motion artifact data for each electrode, providing an objective overview. EOG signal variability from subject to subject is explored with strong correlation found. The majority of the face area is assessed for levels of electrooculography signals present with all areas showing potentially useful levels. Finally, a novel pattern recognition algorithm is used to assess the accuracy of EOG signal classification while exploring the effect of the number of electrodes used and their positioning.Item Gliding transfer board version 2(University of New Brunswick, 2017) Al-Mahdi, Ahmed; Carson, Meghan; Alsharif, Mohammed; Losier, YvesItem Guitar fretting device(University of New Brunswick, 2015) Arsenault, Eric; Colpitts, Candace; Moro, Owolobi; Losier, YvesItem Micro air vehicle design(University of New Brunswick, 2015) Davis, Matthew; Small, Mitchell; Tong, Matthew; Jeans, Tiger; Losier, YvesItem The design of an altimeter using a multiple sensor approach(University of New Brunswick, 2002) Losier, YvesItem Universal CNC machining centre(University of New Brunswick, 2016) Sargent, Korey; Thibodeau, Teresa; Dukuze, Allie; Simoneau, Andy; Losier, YvesThis document is the Final Report for the CNC Machining Centre developed by Group 12 for Dr. Simoneau and Dr. Losier. This report consolidates all aspects of the project and includes all the components of previous status reports. The sections from the previous reports have been modified to provide further details where necessary, and to provide updated details on project development. The report outlines the finalized design and presents the process for assembly, testing, and calibration. The manufacturing process steps are described in detail; this report supplies enough information for a manufacturer to move forward and begin construction of the mechanical structure based on the drawings and specifications. This report also contains a section regarding system controls, which details electrical developments for the completed device. This includes details on the process, transfers, signals and interfaces. Software requirements have been detailed along with required support hardware. A detailed budget for all procured components has been provided along with a schedule for the execution of the build. Also provided in this document is a Gantt chart, which outlines the construction timeline, including testing, spanning the duration of the eight-month project culminating with the UNB Engineering Design Symposium. Additional documents containing an Instruction & Maintenance Manual as well as a Safety Assessment have been appended to this document. A concise overview and summary of the design’s key features can be found in Appendix A.Item Universal mount : an improved mounting system to support & position communication devices(University of New Brunswick, 2015) Aljama, Jassim; Bulua, Ashley; Grove, Caleb; Losier, Yves
