In practice, it means that the acceleration is the only variable that can be used for feedback purposes. This problem appears in many mechanical systems such as positioning systems and force-position controllers in robotic systems and aerospace applications. Based on an algebraic approach, an on-line algebraic estimator is developed in order to estimate in finite time the unmeasured position and velocity variables. The obtained expressions depend solely on iterated integrals of the measured acceleration output and of the control input. The approach is shown to be robust to noisy measurements and it has the advantage to provide on-line finite-time (or non-asymptotic) state estimations. Based on these estimations, a quasi-homogeneous second-order sliding mode tracking control law including estimated position error integrals is designed illustrating the possibilities of finite-time acceleration feedback via algebraic state estimation.","PeriodicalId":90013,"journal":{"name":"Mediterranean Conference on Control & Automation : [proceedings].

To improve the efficiency in weld location for industrial robots, this work focuses on trajectory extraction based on color features identification on three-dimensional surfaces acquired with a depth-RGB sensor. The system is planned to be used with a low-cost Intel RealSense D435 sensor for the reconstruction of 3D models based on stereo vision and the built-in color sensor to quickly identify the objective trajectory, since the parts to be welded are previously marked with different colors, indicating the locations of the welding trajectories to be followed. This work focuses on 3D color segmentation with which the points of the target trajectory are segmented by color thresholds in HSV color space and a spline cubic interpolation algorithm is implemented to obtain a smooth trajectory. Experimental results have shown that the RMSE error for V-type butt joint path extraction was under 1.1 mm and below 0.6 mm for a straight butt joint; in addition, the system seems to be suitable for welding beads of various shapes.","PeriodicalId":90013,"journal":{"name":"Mediterranean Conference on Control & Automation : [proceedings].

One application domain that has expanded massively in recent years is robotics. The usage and spread of robotic systems in commercial and non-commercial environments resulted in increased productivity, efficiency, and higher quality of life. Many researchers have developed systems that improve many aspects of people’s lives, based on robotics. Most of the engineers use high-cost robotic arms, which are usually out of the reach of typical consumers. We fill this gap by presenting a low-cost and high-accuracy project to be used as a robotic assistant for every consumer. Our project aims to further improve people’s quality of life, and more specifically people with physical and mobility impairments. The robotic system is based on the Niryo-One robotic arm, equipped with a USB (Universal Serial Bus) HD (High Definition) camera on the end-effector. To achieve high accuracy, we modified the YOLO algorithm by adding novel features and additional computations to be used in the kinematic model. We evaluated the proposed system by conducting experiments using PhD students of our laboratory and demonstrated its effectiveness. The experimental results indicate that the robotic arm can detect and deliver the requested object in a timely manner with a 96.66% accuracy.","PeriodicalId":90013,"journal":{"name":"Mediterranean Conference on Control & Automation : [proceedings].
