Information related to mobility dynamics constitutes an important factor to be considered in traffic management to improve the efficiency of existing systems. We present a proof-of-concept deployment of sensors using the Bluetooth technology to detect traffic flow conditions. Besides traditional method consisting of a network of stationary sensors, we present a novel approach that uses sensors deployed in movin...

In Dental Medicine, the study of the mandibular movement has an important role in oral rehabilitation as it allows the diagnosis of pathologies in the temporomandibular joint and the definition of adequate treatment plans. In this paper, a new device specially developed for the acquisition and analysis of the 3D mandibular movement is presented. As its main support structure is adopted a facial arc and electrom...
This work reports on a novel use of Information and Communication Technologies for composing an electronic book on the measurement field. The e-book "Laboratórios de Instrumentação para Medição/Laboratories of Instrumentation for Measurement" is written in Portuguese and in English. Dealing with concepts, methods, procedures and hands-on activity it combines sketches, figures, animations, videos and remote and ...
This paper reports on the activities related with remote monitoring of civil engineering structures currently under development in the Laboratory of Earthquake and Structural Engineering (LESE), mainly focusing on the case of a new stone masonry bridge fully instrumented for structural monitoring under service loading. Particular emphasis is put on the process of data acquisition, transmission and final availab...
Instrumentation for Measurements is a course of 3rd year, 2nd semester, in the 5-year Mechanical Engineering degree, run at Faculty of Engineering of University of Porto (FEUP) under the responsibility of the first author, in which around 60% of the time is devoted to 'hands on' laboratory activity, involving a large number of students. The teachers’ team of this course has a broad range curricular traini...
