Visible Light Communication (VLC) has emerged in the last few years as a promising technology not only for high-speed communication but also for serving a new generation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices that may leverage the pervasive lighting infrastructures. Integrating VLC in lighting environments for IoT requires the design of networked and intelligent luminaries and new IoT devices, encompassing the development of innovative technologies and new algorithms. A common experimental platform is necessary to lower the entrance barriers of VLC and speed up the research development. In this paper, we provide guidelines for prototyping VLC for IoT applications, assisted by the open-source platform OpenVLC. We also introduce the new development on OpenVLC, which guarantees support for more powerful LEDs and much longer distance (extending the communication distance from 6 m to 19 m), dimming adaption, among other features. Its low-cost, open-source, and open-hardware designs allow researchers in the community to swiftly adapt it to suit their research purposes. &nbsp

Visible Light Positioning (VLP) has been prevalent in providing high-precision localization systems in the past decade. However, the commercial availability or usage is still limited primarily due to the requirement of changing the existing lighting infrastructure. In this paper, we propose HueSense, an alternative technique to develop a passive VLP system by extracting light-emission intrinsic features, such as dominant colours present in the white LED light. The method can eliminate the need to change lighting-infrastructure, and only uses cheaper and power-efficient off-the-shelf hue sensors. Our experiments demonstrate that HueSense can achieve a location-mapping accuracy of 80.14% with a moving robot in uncontrolled lighting environments. &nbsp

Vincetoxicum pingtaoanum Cai F. Zhang, G.W. Hu & Q.F. Wang, sp. nov. (Figures. 2–4 and 5: A). Vincetoxicum pingtaoanum is similar to V. henryi, but it can be easily distinguished by the longer petioles (5–16 mm vs. 2–3 mm), long inflorescences (2.5–6 cm vs. 1–2 cm) with a rachis (vs. without a rachis and umbel-like) that are mostly longer (vs. shorter) than leaves, greenish-yellow (vs. purplish red) corollas with linear-lanceolate lobes ca. 5 mm (vs. triangular-ovate less than 2 mm) long (Figure 5). Additionally, it is similar to V. emeiense based on the corolla shapes, but differs in the yellowish green (vs. yellowish brown) corollas, shorter inflorescences (2.5–6 cm vs. 7–11 cm), coronas attached above the upper half gynostegia (vs. inserted near base of gynostegia) with obtuse (vs. truncate) lobes (Figure 5), and horizontal (vs. ascending) caudicles. Type:— CHINA. Chongqing City, Wuxi County, Lanying, Lanying Grand Canyon, 109.835471°E, 31.437667°N, 758 m a.s.l., path side and on rocks in the valley, 13 April 2021, Feng Chen, Hou-Lin Zhou, Xue-Bing Shi et al. YTL20-409 (Holotype: HIB! [HIB0208169]; isotypes: CQNM!, PE!). Evergreen woody lianas. Stems green, 1–1.5 mm in diameter, striated, glabrous except for a ring of trichomes around the nodes. Petioles 5–16 mm long, purplish, adaxially densely puberulent along the two sides of the grove, glabrescent when old, uppermost with 4–6 glands; leaf blades thinly coriaceous, lanceolate, lanceolate-ovate, sometimes ovate or elliptic especially when young, green, reddish when young, lower older ones 6–8 × 2.2–3 cm, upper ones 2.2–6.5 × 0.8–1.6 cm; base obtuse, cuneate or rounded, apex attenuate to acuminate, sometimes acute; midrib raised on both surfaces, lateral veins 4 –5 pairs, obscure in younger ones, glabrous except for a few trichomes on main vein, veins of older leaves prominently pale and reticulate. Inflorescences slender, with (2–) 9–14 flowers, 2.5–6.5 cm long, mostly with two cymules (each with 4–6 flowers) separated by a rachis, rarely 2- or 3-branched and zigzagging, usually longer than the adjacent leaves; peduncles 17–34 mm, longer than pedicles, glabrous; bracteoles ciliate. Pedicels slender 13–23 mm, purplish, glabrous. Calyx lobes purplish, triangle-ovate, ca. 1.5 × 0.7 mm, abaxially sparsely puberulent, each with a dark brown gland between adjacent lobes. Corolla yellowish green, purplish at the throat, deeply lobed, starfish-like, ca. 1 cm in diameter, slightly convex, exterior glabrous, interior minutely hairy; lobes spreading, twisted clockwise, ca. 5 × 1 mm, linear-lanceolate, margins revolute, apex rounded. Gynostegium green ca. 2 mm tall. Staminal corona 2–2.3 mm in diameter; lobes fleshy, ovoid, dorsally rounded, ca. 0.5 mm long, radiating from the stamina column and adnate to the upper half of the anthers.Anthers oblong-rhomboid, apex broadly triangular, subacute, inflexed; anther wings 0.5 mm long; apical appendages with conspicuous membranous margin. Pollinarium with two pollinia connected via caudicles to corpusculum; corpuscular narrowly ellipsoid, brownish, ca. 0.12 × 0.04 mm; caudicles horizontal, fusiform, 0.1 mm long; pollinia oblong-reniform, ca. 0.2 × 0.14 mm, apically attached to caudicles. Style-head flat. Follicles single or paired, narrowly fusiform, brownish, 52–55 × 5–6 mm, glabrous. Seeds brownish-black, ca. 7 × 2–2.5 mm, bottle-shaped, much compressed with one side nearly flat and slightly convex & papillose on the other, margins thinner; coma 15–21 mm long. Etymology:—The specific epithet ‘ pingtaoanum ’ is in honor of Prof. Ping-Tao Li (Ṫfflṧ, P.T. Li; 1936–) from South China Agriculture University, for his contributions to the taxonomy of Chinese Apocynaceae. Vernacular name:—Following a tradition of using geographic names as part of the plant vernacular names, we suggest ‘Three Gorges swallow-wort’ as the English common name and ‘Sanxia Baiqian (三ΚƦÑ)’ as the common Chinese name for the new species. Habitat:— 300–1200 m a.s.l, growing on rocks in open or semi-open areas. Phenology:—Flowering from April to August; exact fruiting period unknown, but the last growing season’s fruits with mature seeds can be found in April. Distribution and conservation status:— V. pingtaoanum is currently known only from five localities in the Three Gorges District in Central China (Fig. 1). Three localities are in the north of Yangtze River in Wushan and Wuxi Counties, while the other two are in the south of Yangtze River in Fengjie County. The direct distance among the five localities ranges from about 7.5 km to 75 km. Additionally, this species is expected to be found in the Hubei section of the Three Gorges District, especially in the nearby Badong, Zhushan, and Zhuxi counties (Fig. 1). However, the total occupancy area of V.pingtaoanum is estimated to be no more than 100 km 2 and is projected to decline because of continuous human activities and global climate changes. Thus, it is assessed as vulnerable (VU: B2 ab (ii, iii)) according to the IUCN criteria. Additional specimens examined (Paratypes):— CHINA. Chongqing.

Digital technology including social media challenge fundamental premises of luxury brands including exclusivity, status, authenticity, and sensory experiences. Digital luxury experiences differ from their offline counterparts and brought forward terms like "webmosphere" or "luxemosphere" indicating new approaches. Little is known about the underlying mechanisms manifested in these new phenomena., + ID der Publikation: hslu_89020 + Art des Beitrages: Moderation + Veranstalter: Association of Consumer Research + Sprache: Englisch + Letzte Aktualisierung: 2022-09-13 14:41:49

How customers experience a product or a service is a much debated topic. This study applies the Construal Level Theory (Trope & Liberman, 2010), a social cognitive theory, to explain how consumer perceive utilitarian vs. luxury products and services. The assumption investigated is that luxury products are psychologically the most distant and abstract, followed by luxury experiences, utilitarian products and utilitarian experiences. This is tested with digitalised book data from Google. The retrieved words are replaced with concreteness scores from Brysbaert et al. (2014) and analysed in a repeated two-way factorial. Results show that products are generally psychologically closer and concreter than experiences and the link between psychological distance and utilitarian vs. luxury goods is not as strong as assumed. The results are discussed in light of data type, analytical techniques, and consumption phases., + ID der Publikation: hslu_89023 + Art des Beitrages: Poster-Präsentation + Veranstalter: European Marketing Academy + Sprache: Englisch + Letzte Aktualisierung: 2022-09-13 14:43:52
