Specifically, it investigates pallet picking by using visual feedback using afork lift truck. A manipulator with limited degrees of freedom and differential constraint mobility together with large dimensions of the machine require reliable visual feedback (pallet pose) from relatively large distances. To address this challenge, we propose a control architecture composed of three main sub-systems: (1) pose estimation: body and fork pose estimation in the pallet frame; (2) path planning: from the current pose to the origin (pallet frame); and (3) feedback motion control. In this architecture, the pallet becomes the local earth fixed frame in which poses are resolved and plans are formulated. Choosing the pallet as the origin provides a natural framework for fusing the wheel odometry/inertial sensor data with vision, and planning is required only once the pallet is detected for the first time (because the target is always the origin). Visual pallet detection is non-real-time and unreliable, especially owing to large distances, unfavorable vibrations, and fast steering. To address these issues, we introduce a simple and efficient method that integrates the vision output with odometry and realizes smooth and non-stop transition from global navigation to visual servoing. Real-world implementation on a small-sized forklift truck demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed visual servoing architecture.","PeriodicalId":287085,"journal":{"name":"2013 6th IEEE Conference on Robotics, Automation and Mechatronics (RAM)","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114324833","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}

Even in situations where a single robot may accomplish the task required, the use of multiple robots offers the ability to parallelize problem solution and provide desirable features like time reduction and fault tolerance. In this paper, we study the performance of a network-flow based multi-robot path planning algorithm, [9]. The mapping of the multi robots path planning roadmap to network flow problems enables the application and use of combinatorial network flow algorithms. The recently proposed algorithm can be extended to solve other related path planning problems. We evaluate the performance of the algorithm in for deployment and evacuation scenarios. Simulation results confirm the effectiveness and potential of this algorithm.","PeriodicalId":287085,"journal":{"name":"2013 6th IEEE Conference on Robotics, Automation and Mechatronics (RAM)","volume":"107 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123083103","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}

Three SMA springs are embedded in each silicone elastomer liquid at room temperature to form embedded SMA actuator rods used in designing a soft robot gripper.

Thus, this paper introduces the mechanical characteristics of an actuated soft robot gripper displaying some level of changeable but stable gripping force as well as an investigation into the force distribution mechanism occurring between the actuator and the host medium. The structure has soft fingers with two- degrees-of-freedom (2-DOFs) each. It is light in weight and can be controlled with ease.

We analyze the color information in these images to determine candidate regions, and observe the edge points in each candidate region after edge detection. Some regions will be filtered out if they have too few edge points. We will recognize the text plate by means of the linear discriminant analysis method.

This approach comprises the fusion of the grammar rules and the statistical n-gram language models to produce an elegant and quite efficient tiny decoding graph. The resulting tiny graph has several advantages such as high speed and improved robustness of command decoding even in adverse noisy conditions. To validate the robustness of the proposed approach, we employed a set of spoken commands from the Resource Management (RM1) command and control corpus. These commands are artificially corrupted by 10 types of noise at different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). Experimental results show that the proposed approach achieved word error rates of 1.9% and 29% for the commands at 20dB and 5dB respectively, whereas the word error rates of the same task using the traditional grammar rules were 43% and 75% for the commands at 20dB and 5dB SNRs, respectively.","PeriodicalId":287085,"journal":{"name":"2013 6th IEEE Conference on Robotics, Automation and Mechatronics (RAM)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114779942","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}

Path planning in image space has been studied widely in order to generate the feasible trajectories for the visual servoing controllers. The main idea of image space path planning is to derive a practical paths for image features while taking into account variety of constraints imposed by the image and the physical environment. However, in many practical cases especially in complex and clutter scene spaces extracting the image features is not robust enough and it demands that the target features not to be occluded by the obstacles, robot's body or the target object itself. In this paper, we present a new image space path planning scheme for markerless 3D target that bypasses the feature extraction requirement. Utilizing artificial potential field method the planner generates the desired end-effector path such that a given target remains inside the image boundaries during the robot manipulation task. Experimental results are presented to determine the 2D and 3D generated path with reasonable accuracy for robotic manipulation scenarios.","PeriodicalId":287085,"journal":{"name":"2013 6th IEEE Conference on Robotics, Automation and Mechatronics (RAM)","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131690453","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}
