Their motions rely on precise virtual model of their environment and they are not able to handle changes or unexpected events. This disqualifies them to perform tasks that would require precision in a non controlled environment such as an assembly task in real world. Visual servoing is a well known tool to control the robot using spatial sensors. It includes real world references at control law level. But, visual servoing and more generally sensor-based control schemes provide kinematic control law and do not consider robot dynamics. As consequences, tracking performances are poor and convergence behavior is hardly predictable. In this paper, we proposed a new control scheme considering second order sensor-based control law and robot dynamics. Our main goal is to enable full trajectory tracking in sensor-space. Additionally, the scheme is compatible with priority-ordered task sequencing and it can be also used within a hybrid control scheme where force control is considered. This new control scheme brings the possibility to make easier the robot task definition, dividing a complex positioning task into small easy-manageable ones. Multi-tasks operation has been validated in simulation by using MSC Adams software [1] and where the robot has to perform an engraving task on a surface.","PeriodicalId":128828,"journal":{"name":"2016 14th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision (ICARCV)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129468509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is caused by excessive loading of the waist joint and muscle fatigue. Therefore, power-assist suits have been developed to decrease the load on the waist joint. However, previous power-assist suits have had problems such as low output or heaviness. Thus, we have developed an assist suit that is lightweight and exerts a large force. A balloon actuator and pneumatic artificial muscles are attached to assist suit as the actuators. The assist suit has various desirable features: lightweight, flexibility, and high output. First, human motion is analyzed for the development of the assist suit. The assist suit is developed to assist the waist joint torque. The assist suit is modeled, and the theoretical values of its generation force are estimated using an assist-suit model. Finally, the assist suit is evaluated by measuring the surface electromyography (EMG). The EMG of the wearer is compared with that without the suit. The effectiveness of the assist suit is confirmed by a decrease in EMG.","PeriodicalId":128828,"journal":{"name":"2016 14th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision (ICARCV)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129487742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This license plate detection process detects only the edge vertical components, and the candidate license plates are narrowed down using the contours obtained by dilation and erosion processing and region fill processing. A SVM (Support Vector Machine) based on negative and positive examples is used to determine whether or not a candidate area is a license plate, and finally the position of the license plate is identified. This study examined how the license plate detection results in license plate and non-license plate images were affected by differences in aspect ratios, differences in brightness between the vehicle body and license plate, and the number of positive and negative examples used for learning. The effectiveness of this method was confirmed to yield a license plate detection rate of approximately 90%.","PeriodicalId":128828,"journal":{"name":"2016 14th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision (ICARCV)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125004159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The variable viscoelastic joint system comprised antagonized artificial muscles and magneto-rheological fluid brake (MR-brake). This system enabled the human assisting device such as exoskeletons to retain structural softness when compared with the existing devices driven by motor and reduction gear, which could only achieve superficial softness. In addition, a clutch system that provided high back-drivability to the wearer by structurally separating the device from the wearer was proposed. As an initial step in designing the human assisting device, a prototype with the proposed variable viscoelastic joint system for knee assistance is developed. Also, its control method were developed. Furthermore, experiments were conducted to confirm the influence of the proposed viscoelastic joint system on the wearer and the effectiveness of the clutch system.","PeriodicalId":128828,"journal":{"name":"2016 14th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision (ICARCV)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130548234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Paul, Liyang Liu, Dikai Liu","doi":"10.1109/ICARCV.2016.7838630","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ICARCV.2016.7838630","url":null,"abstract":"It is becoming increasingly achievable for steel bridge structures, which are normally both inaccessible and hazardous for humans, to be inspected and maintained by autonomous robots. Steel bridges have been traditionally constructed by securing plate members together with rivets. However, rivets present a challenge for robots both in terms of cleaning and surface traversal. This paper presents a novel approach to RGB-D image and point cloud analysis that enables rivets to be rapidly and robustly located using low cost, non-contact sensing devices that can be easily affixed to a robot. The approach performs classification based on: (a) high-intensity blobs in color images, (b) the non-linear perturbations in depth images, and (c) surface normal clusters in 3D point clouds. The predicted rivet locations from the three classifiers are combined using a probabilistic occupancy mapping technique. Experiments are conducted in several different lab and real-world steel bridge environments, where there is no external lighting infrastructure, and the sensors are attached to a mobile platform, i.e. a climbing inspection robot. The location of rivets within 2m of the robot can be robustly located within 10mm of their correct location. The state of voxels can be predicted with above 95% accuracy, in approximately 1 second per frame.","PeriodicalId":128828,"journal":{"name":"2016 14th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision (ICARCV)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131354013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we wonder if accurate recognition of activity can be obtained using Internet of Things technology. We propose a processing methodology that can allow to an automatic system like a robot to recognize human activity. The approach consists of the classification of some activities of the subjects: walking, standing, sitting and laying. The study exploits a standard smartwatch and a smartphone carried by participants during a non-controlled experiment. We propose a pre-computation using Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), and we identify the best window width and feature length that provides the best results. We show that Support Vector Machines (SVM) provides better results compared with Decision Tree algorithms (DT). The results also demonstrate that participants' activities were classified with an accuracy of more than 91% in a non-controlled environment, with a non-controlled position of the smartphone. We define the notion of transient that corresponds to the transition between two activities as well between two positions of the sensors. The last result shows that removing the transients provides better results for the classification, i.e. 98%. This approach shows that it is possible for a robot assistant to understand the human behavior only using standard Internet of Things technology in a non-controlled environment.","PeriodicalId":128828,"journal":{"name":"2016 14th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision (ICARCV)","volume":"106 1-2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116118948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To avoid the redundant travels for getting the local gradient in existing methods, we propose a novel source-seeking strategy in which the AUV keeps updating an estimated field model using measurements along its gradient-climbing path. Based on the convergence results of the sequential least-squares field estimation algorithm and the path planning method by nonlinear programming, the AUV will finally reach a maximum of the field which indicates a potential source. The way-point tracking control of the AUV is realized by a nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) scheme embedded with the line-of-sight (LOS) guidance law. The effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed source-seeking strategy is validated in the simulation experiment with a real AUV model.","PeriodicalId":128828,"journal":{"name":"2016 14th International Conference on Control, Automation, Robotics and Vision (ICARCV)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126347999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
