Abstract:
This dissertation deals with research into the design and implementation of a new wide field of view retroreflector device for autonomous mobile robot communication. In order to demonstrate effective and efficient optical communication for robots, the research had first to address the problem of expanding the field of view of retroreflectors. Experimentation shows that the device is beneficial for robotics navigation and localization, and for underwater optical communication. The retroreflector is similar to other conventional cat?s-eye retroreflector designs, but the use of a fisheye lens and

Abstract:
This dissertation presents a free-space, long-range, passive optical communication system that uses electrostatically modulated microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) structures coupled with a glass total internal reflection (TIR)-type corner cube retroreflector (CCR) as a non-emitting data transmitter. A CCR consists of three mirrors orthogonal to each other, so that the incident beam is reflected back to the incident beam, source. The operational concept is to have a MEMS modulator fusion with TIR CCR, such that the modulators are working periodically to disrupt the evanescent waves at the ai

A medição de distâncias sempre foi uma das atividades mais básicas e importantes da engenharia. Existem diversas formas, métodos, equipamentos que são utilizados para se obter medidas com os mais variados graus de acurácia. Com o aumento da tecnologia, a determinação de distâncias em 3D tem-se tornado cada vez mais importante, favorecendo equipamentos de fácil manuseio e boa precisão. Em especial, a determinação da localização espacial vem ganhando ainda mais importância nas indústrias que estão começando a utilizar robôs não mais para o simples deslocamento de peças, mas para a execução de ta

Free-space optics (FSO), or wireless optical communications, has received extensive research due to its promise of practically limitless bandwidths. However, FSO has challenges yet to be met for a cost effective realisation. This D.Phil thesis explores a solution using a ferro-electric liquid crystal spatial light modulator (FLC SLM) and binary phase holograms to significantly reduce the hardware complexity of an FSO system with auto-alignment and turbulence compensation. The theory of binary phase hologram is presented and extended to obtain a new algorithm that is suitable for a FLC SLM. The

This is a cross-disciplinary thesis consisting of both acoustics science research and practice-led research focused on improvised music performance. In very different ways, both types of research focus on how a person’s surrounding environment affects voice production. The thesis describes two experiments: a behavioural laboratory talking experiment and singing practice experiment with research outcomes including an original framework for singing practice and a recorded work of ensemble improvised music. Key aspects of both experiments are (i) vocal production response to the acoustic environ

Abstract:
Providing acoustic control within a room is predominantly dependent on the characteristics of each of its surfaces. Acoustic treatment, such as absorptive material, is usually placed within rooms to try to control the sound field. The conventional geometry of such treatment is a flat layer of material with a specified thickness. While this method has been proven adequately, this thesis offers insights on the general effectiveness of complex geometrical elements placed on the surfaces of a room. A case study within this thesis examines the varying geometrical placement of absorptive material wi
