The proposed method uses the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) value from Bluetooth Low Energy Beacons scattered around interior spaces. We present the results of our model using machine learning, which was developed based on measurements of RSSI values from Beacons inside a lab environment occupying a space of 31m2. Measurements were fed to the open-source TensorFlow framework to develop an estimator of the distance between the mobile phone and the beacon. Next, based on the cross-sections of peripheral lines having as a center the location of the Beacons and radius the predicted distances we compute the intersection points from all circles and base our position estimation on the Geometric median of intersection points. Through experiments, we show that our system has an average accuracy of 69.58cm and can predict position with an accuracy of less than a meter in 80% of the cases.","PeriodicalId":183788,"journal":{"name":"2021 7th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123458537","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}

Due to this, navigation becomes close to impossible with places having low receptivity or GNSS-denied zones. In this paper, a navigational system is presented for a multi-rotor UAV in a GNSS-denied environment. The global positioning problem is solved by taking a local reference frame and estimating the UAV's position and velocity w.r.t it, using an onboard monocular camera and barometer. The navigational problem is solved by designing a required velocity function and tuning the system's response to this input by a PID controller. The results of both simulations and actual flight tests show the effectiveness and reliability of the presented work, which enables a UAV to perform full automated missions from takeoff, waypoint navigation and landing, in complete absence of any GNSS signals.","PeriodicalId":183788,"journal":{"name":"2021 7th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125526884","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 paper proposes a better version of PSO, named Dynamic Cognitive-Social PSO “DCS-PSO”, for global minima search by introducing optimal and dynamic cognitive and social scaling parameters without taking into consideration the inertia term. Furthermore, the velocity of each particle is controlled systematically at each iteration to avoid local minimum traps and to converge quickly and reliably towards the global minimum. The proposed algorithm is more suitable for high dimensional optimization problems and it has gotten over the limitations of classical Particle Swarm Optimization. Several experiments have been carried out, using the proposed DCS-PSO, to optimize thirteen benchmark functions and an important improvement has been observed, not only in terms of reaching the best global solutions but also in terms of convergence speed, compared to the existing benchmark approaches.","PeriodicalId":183788,"journal":{"name":"2021 7th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122335451","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}

However there is a delicate balance between structural compliance and the ability to perform useful mechanical work. Off-axis manipulation has been identified in literature as one of the challenges posed to these robots. In this paper the design and experimental evaluation of a soft continuum manipulator robot module, based on a soft wave spring structure, is addressed with the aim of studying and improving off-axis manipulation. Finite element simulation results are presented, that allow to optimize the design of the wave spring for a specific set of dimensional constraints. A working prototype is also described, and experimental results are presented regarding the evaluation of the structure in both in-axis and off-axis loading, and also for trajectory following under several load cases.","PeriodicalId":183788,"journal":{"name":"2021 7th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121597155","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 paper, we investigate the effectiveness of deep reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms for online area coverage while minimizing the overlap. Through simulation experiments in grid based environments and in the Gazebo simulator, we show that Deep Q-Network (DQN) based algorithms efficiently cover unknown indoor environments. Furthermore, through empirical evaluations and theoretical analysis, we demonstrate that DQN with prioritized experience replay (DQN-PER) significantly minimizes the sample complexity while achieving reduced overlap when compared with other DQN variants. In addition, through simulations we demonstrate the performance advantage of DQN-PER over the state-of-the-art area coverage algorithms, BA* and BSA. Our experiments also indicate that a pre-trained RL agent can efficiently cover new unseen environments with minimal additional sample complexity. Finally, we propose a novel way of formulating the state representation to arrive at an area-agnostic RL agent for efficiently covering unknown environments.","PeriodicalId":183788,"journal":{"name":"2021 7th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126246210","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}

Additionally, the algorithm contains a simple temporary target determination function, and ensures its feasibility in the target-unknown situation.

The modules have limited computational capabilities, interact only with neighboring modules, and can move around adjacent modules from a cell to an empty neighboring cell under specific conditions. An important well-studied problem for these robotic systems is Motion Planning, also known as Shape Formationor Self-reconfiguration, requiring the modules to organize themselves into a pre-determined final configuration (i.e., shape); basic shapes such as the line (or chain) are especially important as they are utilized as a foundation for constructing more complicated shapes and are an initial measure for handling complicated tasks. A metamorphic robots system could offer a higher degree of reliability and robustness compared to fixed-architecture robots due to its capacity to self-repair: should some modules fail and no longer move, the shape could be reconstructed by the non-faulty modules. To do this correctly, efficiently, and without restricting the autonomy of the modules is a non-trivial task. In this paper, we study the Line Recoveryproblem, requiring the non-faulty modules to reconstruct the line without violation of connectivity requirements at any time during the recovery procedure. A thorough feasibility characterization of the problem, the necessary conditions for its solvability, and an algorithm that solves the problem, regardless of the number and distribution of faults, are provided.","PeriodicalId":183788,"journal":{"name":"2021 7th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127806991","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}

Therefore, today's maintenance mostly is time-consuming and cost-intensive.

The technical design should be based on current maintenance requirements and the overall system should be able to anticipate its own flight, evaluate the inspection data AI-based, and draw automatic conclusions. In this paper we describe the structure of the announced and partly already realized process chain. The focus is on the required interfaces between the individual components, the control engineering challenges to the UAS and the mapping of the entire process chain in a simulation environment, which also enables a hardware in the loop test of the different sensors and the carrier system itself. Based on this simulation which also includes the mapping of the technical and operational environment, different movement strategies with regard to energy requirements and flight time as well as an efficient sensor data fusion should be investigated.
