Traditional nonintrusive object inspection methods are complex or extremely expensive to apply in certain cases, such as inspection of enormous objects, underwater or maritime inspection, an unobtrusive inspection of a crowded place, etc. With the latest advances in robotics, autonomous self-driving vehicles could be applied for this task. The present study is devoted to a review of the existing and novel technologies and methods of using autonomous self-driving vehicles for nonintrusive object inspection. Both terrestrial and maritime self-driving vehicles, their typical construction, sets of sensors, and software algorithms used for implementing self-driving motion were analyzed. The standard types of sensors used for nonintrusive object inspection in security checks at the control points, which could be successfully implemented at self-driving vehicles, along with typical areas of implementation of such vehicles, were reviewed, analyzed, and classified.
The paper presents results on establishment and development of Information and Communication Technologies Laboratory at Turiba University. The aim of the laboratory is to provide IT department students the possibility to study and gain practical skills on the development and operation of digitally controlled devices which is currently one of the mainstream technologies in modern society. The paper provides an analysis of typical tasks which are in demand while developing digitally controlled devices, and describes laboratory equipment targeted to meet necessary requirements. The main aims of the laboratory establishment as well as the equipment used and skills which could be acquired with the use of this equipment are described. The students’ projects implemented with the use of laboratory equipment in the Spring semester of 2022 are also described in this paper. All the equipment developed along with other laboratory facility are practically used to improve both knowledge and practical skills of the IT department students, which can help them to be more competitive at the labour market after graduation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
