    Pectoralis major and deltoid are two muscles that are associated with the movement of the shoulder. Electromyography (EMG) signal acquired from these two muscles can be used to classify the movement of the shoulder based on pattern recognition. In this paper, an experiment for EMG data collection involves eight healthy male subjects who perform four shoulder movements which are flexion, extension, internal rotation and external rotation. Feature extraction of EMG data is done using root mean square (RMS), variance (VAR) and zero crossing (ZC). For pattern recognition, the classifiers that are used are Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (QDA). Classification results shows highest accuracy on ZC feature using an SVM classifier with cubic kernel. The study on shoulder movement using EMG of pectoralis and deltoid muscles could be extended on arm amputees based on hypothesis that the EMG signal could be utilized for control of robotic prosthetic arm.

    The primary disadvantages of commercial spectrophotometers are expensive, heavy, and not portable. Furthermore, conventional instruments are only suitable to be used in a specialized laboratory. Even though some commercially available small-size instruments or devices are available, the price is still high. Therefore, a low-cost device is necessary without sacrificing accuracy and sensitivity. In this work, a low-cost, configurable, open-source and accurate portable spectrophotometer device was developed for education and laboratory analytical use. Commercially available photodetector is utilized as main component of the device due to broad spectral range from ultraviolet to near infra-red. The device performs well over a wide range of spectral wavelengths with small errors. We presume that the use of this work can offer a alternative for affordable and accurate device that is comparable to the commercially available products which also suitable for many applications.

    Conventional blood analysis using blood smear image were performed manually by experts in hematology is tedious and highly depending on the level of experience. Currently, computer-assist technology is developed to reduce the time-consuming process and improved accuracy. As an example, various image processing techniques used to quantify such as white blood cells (WBCs) morphological conditions or classification in the blood smear image, which assist experts in developing confidence decision making in the analysis of cells conditions linked to the specific diseases. However, the WBCs shape features are arbitrary than the red blood cells (RBCs) because of the maturation state, cell orientations or positions, cell color variations, and the quality of the image captured influences the performance of classification accuracy. Therefore, we proposed a scale and rotation invariance feature for WBCs classification using speed up robust feature (SURF). SURF is suitable to be applied in identifying objects even though the orientation, scale, and position are varying, such as WBCs in microscopic blood smear images. We analyzed the classification performances using a support vector machine (SVM) and an artificial neural network (ANN) of WBCs types in the microscopic image based on the cell nucleus. The results show that the purposed SURF feature method has an excellent performance of accuracy for both methods and suitable to be utilized for the application of cell types classification.

    Several researchers had worked on collecting electromyography (EMG) signal from amputees and come out with dataset that could be utilized for study in EMG signal processing and classification for decoding of amputee movement intention. This paper presents the work on classification of EMG signal based on the residual limb of amputees with intuitive hand movement based on interactive exercises. Dataset is obtained from NINAPRO public database website where 11 amputee subjects performed intuitive exercise of 17 hand gestures and EMG signal is acquired from the residual arm. Eight feature extraction methods are performed to obtain the EMG feature which are Mean, Minimum, Median, Skewness, Kurtosis, Approximate Entropy, Fuzzy Entropy and Kolmogorov Complexity. Two classifiers are used for EMG classification which are k-Nearest Neighbour and Ensemble classifier. Results shows average accuracy of 87.65% with Ensemble classifier for classification of movement exercise with all features of EMG is used as input to classifier.

    Fetal Blood Sampling (FBS) is the term used to describe the current method of monitoring the foetal condition within the mother’s womb. FBS required the medical officer to make a small incision on the foetus’s head in order to collect blood for analysis of the blood pH level in order to prevent acidosis or foetal hypoxia. The FBS method, on the other hand, is invasive and increases the risk of infection for both mother and child. Magnetic Induction Spectroscopy (MIS) is a novel method for diagnosing the foetus’s pH level that is non-invasive and non-intrusive. A single channel MIS system is composed of a transmitter (TX), a receiver (RX), and an electrical circuit that generates and receives magnetic fields in response to the conductivity of the sample (blood) due to the presence of weak electrolytes (H+ and OH-). The purpose of this research is to develop and evaluate five different designs of TX-RX coils. The coils are designed using the Planar Zero Flow Coil (PZFC) concept, which allows for multiple coil configurations and input-output configurations. The results show that Design 2 open set model was the optimal coil design for MIS system probe, as well as some contributions to the pH evaluation process.

    This paper shows that a multi-sensing technique using electromyogram (EMG), mechanomyogram (MMG), and acousticmyogram (AMG) used to monitor the status of rectus femoris muscle over three states; minimal stress, moderate fatigue, and severe muscle fatigue. Test subjects need to do the designed exercise protocol to simulate these state conditions. The sensors are located at the rectus femoris muscle, and signals were recorded simultaneously. Analysis of signals is based on root mean square (RMS), mean power frequency (MPF), and power spectral density (PSD) plot were compared between the muscle state conditions. Results show that the RMS values of the muscle are increased as the contraction occurs, and the MPF signal is decreased for all sensing properties. On the other hand, the frequency signal is shifted to the left in the PSD plot as the muscle undergoes fatigued for all sensors. In conclusion, multi-sensing using EMG, MMG, and AMG are useful for assessing muscle fatigue condition. It also provide advantages over the single-measurement muscle assessment method.

    Meningitis is a inflammation of the meninges and the most common central nervous system (CNS) due to bacterial infection. Numbers of children who have bacterial meningitis are still high in recent 15 years regardless of the availability of newer antibiotics and preventive strategies. This research focuses on simulation using COMSOL Multiphysics on the design and development of magnetic induction tomography (MIT) system that emphasizes on a single channel rotatable of brain tissue imaging. The purpose of this simulation is to test the capability of the developed MIT system in detecting the change in conductivity and to identify the suitable transmitter-receiver pair and the optimum frequency based on phase shift measurement technique for detecting the conductivity property distribution of brain tissues. The obtained result verified that the performance of the square coil with 12 number of turns (5Tx-12Rx) with 10MHz frequency has been identified as the suitable transmitter-receiver pair and the optimum frequency for detecting the conductivity property distribution of brain tissues.

    Monitoring of fetal condition during labor could save hundred lives in a single year. During labor, fetus is at critical condition as acidosis may occur suddenly without any early symptoms. Invasive method such as Fetal Blood Sampling (FBS) has been used to detect the decline in pH level of fetus. However, fetal loss rate after FBS may range from 1.4% up to 25%. In this paper, magnetic field induction spectroscopy was implemented to determine fetal acidosis by using primary magnetic field cancellation technique. Magnetic Induction Spectroscopy (MIS) probe was design where transmitter coil (TX) is perpendicular to receiver coil (RX). The result shows that the secondary magnetic field produced have been successfully measured without any interruption from primary magnetic field. By using transmitter input 1A, it shows that voltage is inversely proportional to the blood pH due to the conductivity properties of blood.

    A surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor detects changes in physical properties such as mass and density on its surface. Compared to other types of sensors, SAW sensor have a good stability, high selectivity and sensitivity, fast response, and low-cost. On the other hand, to design and optimize a SAW biosensor requires a long process including time and cost using conventional methods. Therefore, numerical simulation and computational modelling are useful and efficiently conduct analysis for the SAW biosensor. In this paper, a numerical simulation technique is used to analyse the SAW device sensitivity for the application of gas detection. The SAW biosensor can detect very small mass loading by changing its sensor resonance frequency. The two-dimensional (2D) device model is based on a two-port SAW resonator with a gas sensing layer. We made two design of SAW biosensor device with frequency of 872 MHz and 1.74 GHz. A gas with vary concentration from 1 to 100 ppm were used to determine the change of the device resonance frequency. As a result, the high frequency (1.74 GHz) device, shows that the resonance frequency is shifted larger than to the low frequency (872 MHz) device. In addition, the high frequency device offers five times more sensitivity than the low frequency device. By changing the sensor design, the sensor characteristics such as sensitivity can be altered to meet certain sensing requirements. Numerical simulation provides advantages for sensor optimization and useful for nearly representing the real condition.

    Fetal acidosis is one of the main concerns during labor. Currently, fetal blood sampling (FBS) has become the most accurate measurement of acidosis detection. However, it is invasive and does not provide a real time measurement due to laboratory procedures. Delays in diagnosis of acidosis have caused serious injury to the fetus, especially for the brain and the heart. This paper reviews the new technique in diagnosis of acidosis non-invasively. Magnetic Induction Spectroscopy (MIS) has been proposed to be a new device for acidosis detection in recent years. This paper explains the basic principle of MIS and outlines the design specifications and design considerations for a MIS pH probe. It is expected that readers will gain a basic understanding of the development of a MIS pH probe from this review.
