The transversal linear force produced by a linear piezo-actuator is replaced by the moment of force produced by the patch piezo-actuator, which is glued to the surface of the thin structure. Beam deflection measurement is replaced by measuring the elongation or shortening of the surface of the deformed beam. To analyze the effect of various controllers on vibration damping, a model using Matlab Simulink is created.","PeriodicalId":339049,"journal":{"name":"2021 22nd International Carpathian Control Conference (ICCC)","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129389858","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 proposed concept boils down to develop an intelligent application that can handle the incoming results and even prevent the occurrence of critical events in the monitored areas. The so-called critical events represent the acts of vandalism, crime, burglary, theft, fights, etc. The core aspect of the described solution is the use of conventional 2D imaging devices, i.e. CCTV cameras, IP webcams or even mobile phone cameras and an AI (artificial intelligence) neural network trained on a set of images. That makes the proposed solution relatively cheap, universal and easy to install across a wide range of target environments without the need for additional sensors. In the paper the authors highlights the architecture of the system, presents details of the video data acquisition stage followed by a description of the 2D human pose estimation toolkit. It is then complemented by summarizing the data extraction stage from pre-recorded clips for machine learning.","PeriodicalId":339049,"journal":{"name":"2021 22nd International Carpathian Control Conference (ICCC)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131112192","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}

For them, adapted machine user interfaces where created. But other challenges remained – as the possibility to interact with the surroundings, not only to navigate thru them. Recent studies reveal that the technological developments offered a real opportunity for the creation of different support devices, which to compensate for the loss of mobility. In the past, the only alternative to exceed these limitations was to ask for human help. One of the most common solutions of those support devices are the robotic light arms, especially the ones specially designed to be mounted on wheelchairs to help users perform handling tasks. This paper describes a smart power wheelchair equipped with artificial vision sensors and a robotic arm designed to be used in applications for people with physical disabilities. We present a human-machine interface that allows the control of the robotic arm movements using the eye tracking sensor.","PeriodicalId":339049,"journal":{"name":"2021 22nd International Carpathian Control Conference (ICCC)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114525566","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}

Nowadays, there are more and more demands for smart equipment to be used by the rescue teams, which to allow them to gather real time information about the hazardous incident causes and its development, thus helping them to plan the adequate rescue strategy, with minimal casualties and maximal rescue results. The TESTES project consortium aims the development of a new generation of sensors, based on deposition of nanofibers and porous films. Those sensors are designed to be used on mobile platforms, as smart sensors. The resulting sensors must be integrated on two classes of mobile platforms: a portable device, which to be carried on by each one of the on-site rescue team members; and a mobile robot platform, which to be teleoperated or which to autonomously move in a hazardous environment. In the current paper we will present the data reading module, the remote transmission module, and the integration of them on the portable device and on the mobile robot platform.","PeriodicalId":339049,"journal":{"name":"2021 22nd International Carpathian Control Conference (ICCC)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125165895","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}

Considered sliding lines are designed so that they cross the initial position of the representative point of the system at the initial time and then they start moving in the state space until they reach the desired steady state. Consequently, the reaching phase is eliminated and the system’s representative point becomes bounded to the sliding plane through the whole regulation process. This guarantees insensitivity of the system’s trajectories to matched external disturbances or modelling uncertainties. In the literature we may find various time-variant sliding mode designs for second and third order systems. This study takes into account a constant-velocity sliding line and a constant-acceleration sliding line for a second order continuous time system. The proposed control schemes are designed in an ITAE optimal way and they comply with system’s constraints.","PeriodicalId":339049,"journal":{"name":"2021 22nd International Carpathian Control Conference (ICCC)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122129594","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}

Their main advantage is the elimination of the reaching phase, which results in the system’s insensitivity to external disturbances and modelling uncertainties in the whole regulation process. In this paper, the properties of time-variant sliding planes are transferred to the discrete-time domain. The study presents a new time-variant sliding mode control for sampled data systems. The strategy assumes generating a reference sliding variable profile in advance and treating it as a time-variant sliding plane. Therefore, the sliding variable of the real system is defined as the distance between the system’s representative point and its reference position in each step. This approach eliminates the reaching phase, provides all the properties of the switching-type quasi-sliding mode, as defined by Gao et al., and ensures a reduction of the quasi-sliding mode band width compared to reaching law based approach in the entire regulation process.","PeriodicalId":339049,"journal":{"name":"2021 22nd International Carpathian Control Conference (ICCC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122162711","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}
