Firstly, the YOLOMS network was used to realize the 3D localization of picking points for single mangoes and mango clusters in unstructured environments. Secondly, a new “shearing and grasping integrated” end-effector for non-destructive harvesting of mangoes was designed. Then, a task division method for the workspace of the dual robotic arm harvesting robot was proposed to minimize the likelihood of collisions between dual arms. Additionally, a depth-first picking strategy was introduced to reduce fruit damage and enhance the success rates of picking mangoes from layered canopies. Finally, a mango harvesting robotic system with dual arms was developed and integrated. The performance of the system was evaluated by field mango picking experiments. The results showed that the average recognition rate and planning success rate of the harvesting robot were 83.94% and 98.45%, respectively. In addition, the average harvesting success rate of the robot was 73.92%, and the average single-fruit harvesting time was 8.93 s. Compared with the robot with single arm, the harvesting time was reduced by 48.38%, which indicated that the harvesting efficiency of the dual robotic arm harvesting robot was significantly improved. The average collision-free harvesting rate with the addition of the depth-first harvesting strategy was 91.68%, which verified the rationality and effectiveness of the dual robotic arm collaborative mango harvesting robotic system.

Quadruped robots are one of the best kinds of legged robotic systems with regard to their framework and movement flexibility. For making quadrupeds fully autonomous, it is important to concentrate on their modeling, modulation, and maneuverability. This article sheds light on quadruped robots, starting from the early-stage developments of TITAN series quadrupeds to current progress based on variations of design, gait analysis, control, and motion planning, so as to provide directions for future researchers to develop efficient quadrupeds. Furthermore, we have made a comparative analysis on various aspects, including various mobile robots, material specifications, leg structure and topology, crucial modeling parameters, sensors and actuation systems, as well as traditional and advanced algorithms. This work explores gait analysis, followed by numerous researchers concentrating on various gait stability challenges; in addition, it presents the studies on control strategies of quadruped robots based on a PID controller, neural network controller, fuzzy logic controller, delayed feedback controller, hybrid controller, and other peculiar controllers. Furthermore, the representative explorations on motion planning algorithms of quadruped robots have been done.

Various effective OA schemes have been reported, but they may suffer from a large amount of calculation for the situation of multiple obstacles and/or complex-shaped obstacles. In this paper, to address the aforementioned limitation, a new OA scheme with dimensionality reduction is proposed and studied for redundant robot manipulators. Specifically, by combining robot kinematics and geometry, a typical inequality criterion for OA is designed, which can reduce the calculation for an obstacle point from the general three dimensions to one dimension. Such an inequality criterion is further aided by (1) the dynamic selection for the situation of a large number of obstacle points, and (2) the feature extraction for the situation of complex-shaped obstacles. With the OA environment optimized and the obstacles' dimension limited, the computational efficiency of generating the inequality criterion for specific scenarios can thus be improved. By incorporating the inequality criterion and the joint physical constraint, the new dimensionality-reduction OA (DROA) scheme is developed for redundant robot manipulators. Such a DROA scheme is depicted as a quadratic program that is solved by the reinforcement learning method. Simulation and experiment results under the PA10 robot manipulator verify the efficacy and applicability of the proposed DROA scheme.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":192,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Field Robotics","volume":"42 7","pages":"3694-3704"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145129182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the traveling process of tracked robots, the complex interaction between the tracks and the ground causes slip, which leads to problems such as low path tracking accuracy and poor control stability. To solve this thorny problem, quantitative control compensation parameters are generally obtained through experiments, or extended Kalman filter (EKF) is designed based on Gaussian noise to estimate slip parameters during motion. However, the sensor measurement noise of tracked robots usually exhibits a non-Gaussian distribution in uneven terrain and variable soil conditions. Under such circumstances, these methods exhibit larger errors and demonstrate inadequate adaptability. Therefore, this paper proposes a variational Bayesian EKF (VBEKF) algorithm for slip parameters estimation, and designs a slip compensation path tracking controller to improve the accuracy and adaptability of the control system of tracked robots under complex operating conditions. The main contributions of this paper are as follows: (1) The non-Gaussian noise was re-modeled using the Student's t-distribution, and combined with variational Bayesian, the VBEKF algorithm was designed. This algorithm can more accurately estimate the slip parameters between the tracks and soil under complex and varying operating conditions, demonstrating enhanced adaptability. (2) Based on the backstepping control principle, a path tracking controller with slip parameter compensation was designed for tracked robots. This controller dynamically adjusts its output control based on the estimated slip parameters to eliminate the impact of slip between the tracks and soil on path tracking accuracy. Finally, the effectiveness of the method was demonstrated through simulations and experiments. This study can improve the adaptability and stability of tracked robots under complex and variable operating conditions, ensuring accurate and rapid task completion, and has broad application prospects.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":192,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Field Robotics","volume":"42 7","pages":"3600-3614"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145129156","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there are great challenges in ground target detection and tracking, especially in complex battlefield environments. Aiming at the problem of insufficient accuracy of target detection by a single type of sensor in the battlefield environment at this stage, a target detection method by fusion of visible and infrared images is proposed in this paper, which is called ReconnaissanceFusion-YOLO (RF-YOLO), and with the help of infrared imagery, it can effectively improve the accuracy of target detection in the case of insufficient light. The performance of target detection in the battlefield is significantly improved by introducing two key innovative modules: dual feature fusion (DFF) module and feature fusion corrector (FFC) module. The DFF module enhances multi-channel feature fusion through a novel concatenation and channel-wise attention mechanism, while the FFC module performs feature correction between parallel streams using spatial and channel-wise weights, addressing noise and uncertainty in different modalities. These modules are integrated on top of a dual-stream YOLO architecture, allowing for effective fusion of visible and infrared information. RF-YOLO was trained and evaluated using the FLIR data set, containing 5142 pairs of strictly aligned visible and infrared images. Results demonstrate that RF-YOLO significantly outperforms benchmark networks in terms of robustness requirements. Specifically, the large model of RF-YOLO achieves an mAP of 0.831, which is a significant improvement compared to the YOLOv5l inf benchmark's 0.739. This represents an improvement of over 12% in detection accuracy. Additionally, RF-YOLO offers a Nano version that balances accuracy and speed. The Nano version achieves an mAP of 0.765, while maintaining a model size of only 11.5 MB, making it suitable for deployment on UAV edge computing devices with limited resources. To validate the practical applicability of our approach, this paper successfully implements target detection and tracking on a real UAV's edge computing device using the ROS system and SiameseRPN, combined with the proposed RF-YOLO. Real-world flight tests were conducted on an internal playground, demonstrating the effectiveness of our method in actual UAV applications. The system achieved a processing rate of approximately 10 fps at 640 × 640 resolution on an NVIDIA TX2 edge computing device, showcasing its real-time performance capability in practical scenarios.
