In each perpendicular arrangement, the constrained displacement of the double clamped beams, joined at their endpoint, produces a buckling in each beam, which favors the displacement of each arm of the microgripper, normally open. These arrangements constitute the highly flexible structures of the microgripper. Their buckling is produced by the force applied by chevron arrow, producing a reaction force in the range of 174.44 $mu$ N in the microgripper jaws. Chevron actuator is fed by a thermal source. Temperature in microgripper tips is of 34.42°C and the operation frequency is 33.966 kHz, at maximum load thermal applied of 200°C. The mechanical, thermal and modal analyses of this integrated structure was supported by SIMSOLIDTM, based on Finite Element Analysis. The simulation was developed with Polysilicon as structural material.","PeriodicalId":422872,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Mechatronics, Electronics and Automotive Engineering (ICMEAE)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127699737","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}

As systems grow in number of components and features, the correct design of the Network-on-Chip has a central role in meeting the performance requirements of the system, because it is responsible for the efficient movement of data inside the MPSoC. In this paper a software tool called NoCSimulator which is based in queueing theory for the estimation of latency and throughput of a NoC is proposed. The contribution of this tool is its ability to generate stochastic traffic patterns based on real data traffic of scientific applications, not only synthetic traffic as similar tools reported in literature. This makes it possible to study NoC performance under real working conditions, which gives better insights about NoC behavior, and improves the design space exploration at early stages of system development. NoCSimulator was validated using two state-of-the-art cycle-accurate simulators (BookSim and Garnet). NoCSimulator, based in queueing theory, does not model hardware aspects of the NoC as a cycle-accurate simulator, so, long simulation times of complex systems can be avoided during design space exploration.","PeriodicalId":422872,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Mechatronics, Electronics and Automotive Engineering (ICMEAE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127625051","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}

This technique is proposed for its implementation in autonomous vehicles instead of the use of an external 360-degree camera, mostly due to its reduced cost and improved aerodynamics. This strategy requires a fast and robust set of features to be extracted from the images obtained by the cameras located around the inside of the car, in order to effectively compute the panoramic view in real time and avoid hazards on the road. This paper compares and creates discussion of three feature extraction methods (i.e. SIFT, BRISK and SURF) for image feature extraction, in order to decide which one is more suitable for a panorama stitching application in an autonomous car architecture. Experimental validation shows that SURF exhibits an improved performance under a variety of image transformations, and thus appears to be the most suitable of these three methods, given its accuracy when comparing features between both images, while maintaining a low time consumption. Furthermore, a comparison of the results obtained with respect to similar work allows us to increase the reliability of our methodology and the reach of our conclusions.","PeriodicalId":422872,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Mechatronics, Electronics and Automotive Engineering (ICMEAE)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115088989","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 data generated by iMotion® are CSV files and the first part was to be able to have a clean database for its training.

The originality of this work resides in the material used and in the stacked piezoelectric actuator. The main contribution is the demonstration of a design methodology that implements prototype compliance mechanisms at millimeter scale for validation purposes before proceeding to the fabrication in micrometric scale. Even so, the system in mm scale can also be used for micromanipulation due to the range of its microgripper jaws’ aperture and its reliability.

Use cases for the autonomous platform are warehouse commodity management, medical material transportation in hospitals, airport luggage logistics and personal mobility for handicapped people. The progress landed in this regard goes in hand with self-driving cars, another key target use case for the proposed platform as test bench. Mobility tests are carried out to assert adequate physical operation, resulting in effective performance at up to 17km/h and secure current, voltage and temperature values for the brushless DC motors, battery and controllers.
