Vibration sensors are important in many engineering fields, including industry, surgery, space, and mechanics, such as for remote and autonomous driving. We propose a novel, cutting-edge vibratory sensor that mimics human tactile receptors, with a configuration different from current sensors such as strain gauges and piezo materials. The basic principle involves the perception of vibration via touch, with a cutaneous mechanoreceptor that is sensitive to vibration. We investigated the characteristics of the proposed vibratory sensor, in which the mechanoreceptor was covered either in hard rubber (such as silicon oil) or soft rubber (such as urethane), for both low- and high-frequency ranges. The fabricated sensor is based on piezoelectricity with a built-in voltage. It senses applied vibration by means of hairs in the sensor and the hardness of the outer cover. We also investigated two proposed parameters: the sensor response time to stimuli to the vibration aiding the equivalent firing rate (e.f.r.) and the gauge factor (GF,pe) proposed as treated in piezo-resistivity. The evaluation with the parameters was effective in designing a sensor based on piezoelectricity. These parameters were enhanced by the hairs in the sensor and the hardness of the outer cover. Our results were helpful for designing the present novel vibratory sensor. Full article

This study introduces a virtual reality (VR)-based remote hair design training system that addresses the limitations of physical presence. By leveraging virtual environments and eliminating the need for tangible tools, this system allows hairstylists and learners to collaborate and master hair-design techniques from a distance. In this approach, a section of a user’s hair was derived from their photograph, and during the training, the most compatible 3D hair model was integrated with the user’s 3D avatar using the recommended matching procedure. This aligned hairstyle was subsequently incorporated into a 3D model for hair simulation. Further, VR HMD interaction mapping was used for hair cutting and styling. A collaborative environment for hair design has been crafted, enabling multiple participants to partake in remote hairstyle education. This system offers cost-effective training, enhances cooperative learning, and aligns with the requirements of contact-free education. In essence, this research has transformed remote hair design training with immersive VR technology. To verify the system’s accuracy, tests were conducted, and the results showcased enhancements in the matching procedure. Full article

This study evaluated a community-driven animal health and management program in the remote community of Wadeye, Northern Territory. This evaluation used a pre-post design to assess changes in animal and human health outcomes over a 12-month period of program implementation, from June 2018 to June 2019. The evaluation assessed the program by comparing animal health outcomes before versus one year after program implementation and comparing human health outcomes before versus during the first 12 months of the program. Outcome measures included the desexing status of dogs and cats, body condition and hair score of dogs, and rates of people presenting to the health clinic for a dog bite. Animal health outcomes significantly improved after program implementation. From pre to post program, there was a 77% increase in the prevalence of good body condition score among dogs and a 9% increase in the prevalence of good hair score among dogs, and the prevalence of desexed dogs and cats more than doubled. There was no significant change in the number of people presenting to the health clinic for a dog bite. Consideration on how to further incorporate human and environmental health aspects into the program could be useful for future One Health programs. Full article
