For this, a single-channel electroencephalograph exploiting dry electrodes was integrated with augmented reality glasses for stimuli presentation and output data visualization. The final system was non-invasive, wearable, and portable. Engineering Production of Single Tracks of Ti-6Al-4V by Directed Energy Deposition to Determine the Layer Thickness for Multilayer Deposition Abdollah Saboori1, Simona Tusacciu2, Mattia Busatto2, Manuel Lai2, Sara Biamino1, Paolo Fino1, Mariangela Lombardi1 1Department of Applied Science and Technology, Politecnico di Torino, 2IRIS S.r.l. In this research, a rapid method based on melt pool characterization is developed to estimate the layer thickness of Ti-6Al-4V components produced by directed energy deposition. Chemistry Synthesis and Characterization of Fe-doped Aluminosilicate Nanotubes with Enhanced Electron Conductive Properties Ehsan Shafia1, Serena Esposito2, Elnaz Bahadori1, Marco Armandi1,3, Maela Manzoli4, Barbara Bonelli1,3,5 1Department of Applied Science and Technology, Politecnico di Torino, 2Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering, Università degli Studi di Cassino e del Lazio Meridionale, 3Institute of Chemistry, Politecnico di Torino, 4Department of Chemistry & NIS Interdepartmental Centre, University of Turin, 5INSTM Unit of Torino-Politecnico, Politecnico di Torino Here, we present a protocol to synthesize and characterize Fe-doped aluminosilicate nanotubes. The materials are obtained by either sol-gel synthesis upon addition of FeCl3•6H2O to the mixture containing the Si and Al precursors or by post-synthesis ionic exchange of preformed aluminosilicate nanotubes.
