Using a simulation algorithm, the system parameter calculation is carried out through MATLAB software for vibration amplitude, transient period, steady-state error, and settling time of flexible robotic arm system. In a systematized motion equation, flexible robotic deflections are organized via the assumed mode (AM) and Lagrange techniques (LT).

In addition, the robot can recognize landmarks in a structured environment by using a classification technique on each frame acquired by the LiDAR. Furthermore, considering the experimental tests, a new simple algorithm based on the LiDAR data processing together with the inertial data (IMU sensor) through a Kalman filter is proposed to characterize the robot’s pose by the surrounding environment with fixed landmarks.

Violence metrics increasing very rapidly reveal a very alarming situation. Many violent events go unnoticed. Over the last few years, autonomous vehicles have been used to observe and recognize abnormalities in human behavior and to classify them as crimes or not. Detecting crime on live streams requires classifying an event as a crime or not a crime and generating alerts to designated authorities, who can in turn take the required actions and assess the security of the city. There is currently a need for this kind of effective techniques for live video stream processing in computer vision. There are many techniques that can be used, but Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and OpenCV provide the most accurate prediction for this task. OpenCV is used for the task of object detection in computer vision, which will take the input from either a drone or any autonomous vehicle. LSTM is used to classify any event or behavior as a crime or not. This live stream is also encrypted using the Elliptic curve algorithm for more security of data against any manipulation. Through its ability to sense its surroundings, an autonomous vehicle is able to operate itself and execute critical activities without the need for human interaction. Much crowd-based crimes like mob lynching and individual crimes like murder, burglary, and terrorism can be protected against with advanced deep learning-based Anamoly detection techniques. With this proposed system, object detection is possible with approximately 90% accuracy. After analyzing all the data, it is sent to the nearest concern department to provide the remedial approach or protect from any crime. This system helps to enhance surveillance and decrease the crime rate in society.","PeriodicalId":37910,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Automation, Mobile Robotics and Intelligent Systems","volume":"184 1","pages":"62 - 71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75677851","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 essentially generates the shortest traversable path between two given points. There are many path planning algorithms that have been proposed by researchers all over the world; however, there is very little work focussing on path planning for a service environment. The general assumption is that either the environment is fully known or unknown. Both cases would not be suitable for a service environment. A fully known environment will restrict further expansion in terms of the number of navigation points and an unknown environment would give an inefficient path. Unlike other environments, service environments have certain factors to be considered, like user-friendliness, repeatability, scalability, and portability, which are very essential for a service robot. In this paper, a simple, efficient, robust, and environment-independent path planning algorithm for an indoor mobile service robot is presented. Initially, the robot is trained to navigate to all the possible destinations sequentially with a minimal user interface, which will ensure that the robot knows partial paths in the environment. With the trained data, the path planning algorithm maps all the logical paths between all the destinations, which helps in autonomous navigation. The algorithm is implemented and tested using a 2D simulator Player/Stage. The proposed system is tested with two different service environment layouts and proved to have features like scalability, trainability, accuracy, and repeatability. The algorithm is compared with various classical path planning algorithms and the results show that the proposed path planning algorithm is on par with the other algorithms in terms of accuracy and efficient path generation.","PeriodicalId":37910,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Automation, Mobile Robotics and Intelligent Systems","volume":"29 1","pages":"31 - 45"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80072579","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}
