With economic development and changes in the industrial environment in the world, it is necessary to build an automated production line in the modern factory. Because of the excellent functions and high stability of the programmable logic controller (PLC), it is mainly used to integrated control systems to control devices. e.g., sensors, servo motors, and pressure systems. This paper combines PLC, mobile App, and Arduino modules to create a fully automated agricultural technology.

With the emphasis on sustainable design principles, a lot of studies have begun to develop electric pedal-assisted bikes. In this paper, a fuzzy-logic-based controller has been proposed with the consideration of road situations by further using a slope sensor. Finally, simulation results show that the developed approach outperforms other current ones in terms of both comfortable riding speeds and energy consumptions.

With the rapid development of industrial technologies, a lot of wastes have been produced in modern life. In order to efficiently recycle the wastes, this paper has designed and implemented an intelligent recycling bin using the MobileNet-SSD (Single-Shot Detector) networks. Experimental results indicate the feasibility and practicality of the implemented system, in which the accuracy reaches above 90% for the plastic bottles and metal cans.
