These languages provide a simplified entry point into programming; they are popular for teaching children how to program robots. However, most studies have focused on children’s engagement, enjoyment and learning rather than how children explore a block-based programming environment. This paper provides some preliminary results from how children use a programming environment for a Nao robot. These results show children initially focus on short, external manifestations, such as getting the robot to speak and move, rather than exploring the available functionality. Very few children explore the full functionality available.","PeriodicalId":398742,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots (UR)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130971941","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 robot in consideration involves two independent driving wheels sharing the same axle as well as one inverted pendulum in the middle acting as the main body. Instead of considering the entire TWIP mobile robot as a whole, following the idea of Dynamic Model Decomposition, we decompose the robot into the body and the two wheels, with interaction forces and moments connecting them. The effect is that we can thus enjoy lower-dimensional dynamics for each subsystem while their composition maintaining the equivalence to the full-order robot model. Based on that, we further propose a corresponding model predictive control framework via quadratic programming, which considers linearly approximated body dynamics with constrained wheel reaction forces as inputs. The overall methodology was successfully implemented on a TWIP mobile robot in the simulation environment. The simulation results show that the robot is capable of station keeping, disturbance rejection, velocity tracking, and path following.","PeriodicalId":398742,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots (UR)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115231079","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}

Based on the constitutive model of the SMA spring, the controller is designed to control the antagonistic joint angle as well as to achieve the desired joint damping and stiffness. The impedance control frame is a double loop, in which from the desired torque of the outer impedance control loop, an inversion force control law is proposed in the inner loop to control each actuator’s force. The stability analysis is carried out using the ultimate bounded stability theory. Experiments are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the system. It is shown that the desired antagonistic joint angle can be obtained with small errors for both sinusoidal waveform tracking and set-point regulation, where the maximum position error is 0.8 deg and root-mean-squared error is 0.3 deg (with the frequency of 0.15Hz) during tracking control, and the maximum position error during set-point regulation is 0.04 deg at the steady-state.","PeriodicalId":398742,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots (UR)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127449778","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}

Although there are many quadcopter applications, the bi-copter like a coaxial helicopter has apparent energy efficiency and scalability advantages. What makes the bi-copter challenging to use is difficulty in control because additional mechanical structures are essential for stable movement. This paper tackles this problem by proposing a novel bi-rotor design called M-BRIC with rotatable weight rods and reinforcement learning-based controller. Two weight rods that affect the model’s center of mass (CoM) allow higher maneuverability in horizontal directions. The controller of the model is trained to reach the random target point reliably using Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO). To train and test M-BRIC, NVIDIA Isaac Gym is adopted, which is a state-of-the-art physics simulation and supports superfast parallel training. Finally, four reward functions with different characteristics are designed, and the tracking performances of the controller trained with each reward function are compared in the simulation.","PeriodicalId":398742,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots (UR)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122136277","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 is composed of modular members and nodes and can operate in a rough and cluttered environment. By changing the length of each member, the VTT robot can change size and shape. The VTT can also perform locomotion by rolling. Travel over a long distance can be accomplished by repeating the rolling motion, so a motion primitive is used. This reduces the computational work because the repetitive motion only needs to be calculated once. In this paper, an algorithm is presented to derive a motion primitive for an octahedral VTT. The algorithm consists of three phases: placing one node on the ground, moving the center of mass, and returning to the initial shape. On each time step, a set of possible robot motions is evaluated based on a cost function. The lowest cost motion is selected on each time step to form the optimized motion primitive. The resulting motion primitive is analyzed and validated.","PeriodicalId":398742,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots (UR)","volume":"153 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122254129","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}

Medical robots can be deployed as a force multiplier in situations when skilled healthcare providers are limited and can reduce the risk of medical failures during diagnostic and intervention procedures. One example is detecting free-flowing blood in the abdomen and pneumothorax by performing the extended Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma (eFAST) ultrasound diagnostics examination. We developed a semi-autonomous robotic ultrasound system that intelligently perceives the patient’s pose and determines the corresponding eFAST configuration for the robotic-assisted procedure. The dynamic pose of the patient is identified in real-time using an optimization-based algorithm, while the eFAST configurations are predicted by a neural network model. A robot manipulator holding an ultrasound device is autonomously driven to the body-normal vector of each eFAST target. This approach accomplishes robust prediction for non-linear problems, even with dynamic posture of the detected body in highly unstructured sites with variable patient shape and pose.","PeriodicalId":398742,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots (UR)","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133050808","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}
