Abstract:
Multi-robot system is one of the important study topics of robotics. Many near field wireless communication technologies are used in different systems nowadays. In this paper, the Zigbee module is chosen as the wireless communication solution for Multi-P3-AT-Robot Platform since it can build the Ad Hoc Network. Tests of the combination of different network topology structure and data sending mode were made using two platforms and three platforms. According to the test results and the application requirement, the star network topology and the broadcasting mode is configured in the Zigbee module which is used to build the Ad hoc network for multi-P3-AT-robot platform. Through the ability of self-organizing network, each platform can realize data interaction with other robots, and task planning & coordination between platforms. Moreover, the communication between each two platforms will not be affected although the connection may change due to the movement of the platform.

Abstract:
We describe an exploratory case study about the applicability of different robotic platforms in an educational context with a child with Down syndrome. The robotic platforms tested are the humanoid robot KASPAR and the mobile robotic platform IROMEC. During the study we observed the effects KASPAR and IROMEC had in helping the child with the development and improvement of her social skills while playing different interactive games with the robots. Conceptually similar play scenarios were performed with both robots and the behaviour of the child was monitored during her interactions with them.

Abstract:
Aimed at the problem that experimental verifications are difficult to execute due to lacking effective experimental platforms in the research field of multi-robot formation, we design a simple multi-robot formation platform. This proposed general and low-cost multi-robot formation platform includes the indoor global-positioning system, the multi-robot communication system, and the wheeled mobile robot hardware. For each wheeled mobile robot in our platform, its real-time position information in the centimeter‑level precise is obtained by the Marvelmind Indoor Navigation System and orientation information is obtained by the six-degree-of-freedom gyroscope. The Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) wireless communication infrastructure is selected to support the communication among robots and the data collection in the process of experiments. Finally, a set of leader–follower formation experiments are performed by our platform, which include three trajectory tracking experiments of different types and numbers under deterministic environment and a formation-maintaining experiment with external disturbances. The results illustrate that our multi-robot formation platform can be effectively used as a general testbed to evaluate and verify the feasibility and correctness of the theoretical methods in the multi-robot formation. What is more, the proposed simple and general formation platform is beneficial to the development of platforms in the fields of multi-robot coordination, formation control, and search and rescue missions.

Abstract:
Robots are an important part of urban search and rescue tasks. World wide attention has been given to developing capable physical platforms that would be beneficial for rescue teams. It is evident that use of multi-robots increases the effectiveness of these systems. The Robot Operating System (ROS) is becoming a standard platform for the robotics research community for both physical robots and simulation environments. Gazebo, with connectivity to the ROS, is a three-dimensional simulation environment that is also becoming a standard. Several simultaneous localization and mapping algorithms are implemented in the ROS; however, there is no multi-robot mapping implementation. In this work, two multi-robot mapping algorithm implementations are presented, namely multi-robot gMapping and multi-robot Hector Mapping. The multi-robot implementations are tested in the Gazebo simulation environment. Also, in order to achieve a more realistic simulation, every incremental robot movement is modeled with rotational and translational noise.

Abstract:
The rapid advances in robotics have recently led to the developments of a wide range of robotic platforms that exhibit significant differences at the hardware components level. Consequently, this poses a significant challenge to robot software developers since they have to know how every hardware device in the robot works to ensure their software’s compatibility when transferring/reusing their code on different robots. In this paper we present a new Robot Hardware Abstraction Layer (R-HAL) that permits to seamlessly program and control any robotic platform powered by the XBot control software framework. The implementation details of the R-HAL are introduced. The R-HAL is extensively validated through simulation trials and experiments with a wide range of dissimilar robotic platforms, among them the COMAN and WALK-MAN humanoids, the KUKA LWR and the CENTAURO upper body. The results attained demonstrate in practice the gained benefits in terms of code compatibility, reuse and portability, and finally unified application programming even for robots with significantly diverse hardware.

Abstract:
One of the most promising approaches to understand human cognitive and developmental mechanisms is a synthetic approach using humanoid robots; an approach to understand the human cognitive functions by realizing them with the robots. Humans are so complicated and it is difficult to mimic the well-developed human by robotic technologies. Therefore, it is necessary to understand how humans develop the complicated functions during the developmental process. We may be able to develop infant functions and make them evolve by tracing the human developmental process. This new study requires robot platforms that can mimic various aspects of the human developmental process. This paper introduces a series of robot platforms that we have developed for the studies with the synthetic approach.

Abstract:
Internet and cloud-based robot services have been attractive and developed. Nowadays, how to enhance the controllability of intelligent robots is an important issue for researchers. This study designs a Kinect Motion Oriented Intelligent-Robot Environment, which is called K-MORE. K-MORE is designed for easily controlling intelligent robots, which is composed of Sensing-based Interactive Robot (SIR) service platform and Cloud Environment. K-MORE is based on open service platforms, including Arduinos, Google Android, and Google App Engine (GAE). Robots not only can be controlled by a smartphone but also can be triggered by events via GAE or Ontology Case-based Reasoning (OCBR). Furthermore, users can use a smartphone to control robots. K-MORE is well-integrated with users, intelligent robots, sensors and the cloud environment. Finally, K-MORE can be an inference model for researchers when developing a robotics-based open service platform in the future.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the role of interaction and communication kinesics in human–robot interaction. This study is part of a novel research project on sign language (SL) tutoring through interaction games with humanoid robots. The main goal is to motivate the children with communication problems to understand and imitate the signs implemented by the robot using basic upper torso gestures and sound. We present an empirical and exploratory study investigating the effect of basic nonverbal gestures consisting of hand movements, body and face gestures expressed by a humanoid robot, and having comprehended the word, the participants will give relevant feedback in SL. This way the participant is both a passive observer and an active imitator throughout the learning process in different phases of the game. A five-fingered R3 robot platform and a three-fingered Nao H-25 robot are employed within the games. Vision-, sound-, touch- and motion-based cues are used for multimodal communication between the robot, child and therapist/parent within the study. This paper presents the preliminary results of the proposed game tested with adult participants. The aim is to evaluate the SL learning ability of participants from a robot, and compare different robot platforms within this setup.

Full text
Abstract:
Robotics is an interdisciplinary subject and combines mechanical, computer and electrical engineering components together to solve different kinds of problems. In order to build robotic systems, these disciplines should be integrated. Therefore, mobile robots can be used as a tool in education for teaching engineering concepts. They can be employed to be used in undergraduate, graduate and doctorate research. Hands on experience on a mobile robot increase motivation of the students on the topic and give them precious practical knowledge. It also delivers students new skills like teamwork, problem solving, creativity, by executing robotic exercises. To be able to fulfill these outcomes, universities and research centers need mobile robot platforms that are modular, easy to build, cheap and flexible. However it should be also powerful and capable of being used in different research studies and hence be customizable depending on the requirements of these topics. This thesis aims at building an indoor mobile robot that can be used as a platform for developing algorithms involving various sensors incorporated onto a mobile platform. More precisely, it can be used as a base for indoor navigation and localization algorithms, as well as it can be used as platform for developing algorithms for larger autonomous mobile robots. The thesis work involves the design and manufacturing of a mobile robot platform that can potentially facilitate mobile robotics research that involves use of various hardware to develop and test different perception and navigation algorithms.

Abstract:
Nowadays, it is of crucial importance for the manufacturing industry to be prepared for the application and understanding of autonomous mobile robots. Given this fact, educational institutions have to provide knowledge and experience to students. These autonomous mobile robots are made and controlled using different platforms and programming languages. Currently, the University of Skövde wishes to expand the range of tools to be available for building and experimenting with autonomous robots. For this purpose, this thesis project has two main goals. The first goal is finding the best available robotic platform for small scale, self-built, programmable robots. Such a platform has to include all the hardware necessary for later implementation with the software. The platform is evaluated in this thesis following different criteria. The second goal is to build a robot using the chosen platform. The robot has to perform a certain task taking advantage of its specific hardware. The development of the task has been achieved using the Robot Operative System (ROS). This thesis provides step by step instructions of how to build the platform and perform the task.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis presents the design and development of a unique omni-directional platform known as the Omnibot which was built in the Mechatronic and Robotic Systems Laboratory at UOIT. The Omnibot's layout is novel because its drive axes do not intersect with the geometric center of the body, which is typical for omni-directional platforms using segmented omni-directional wheels. This design enables the center of mass to be lower in the design and increases the stability. A suspension system was designed for each of the four wheels to limit vibrations and to ensure contact between the wheels and operating surface. The Omnibot was built to modularly support many systems, including a robot arm, without altering the mechanical design of the frame. Two control modes were developed: local and global. Commands to drive the Omnibot can be received from either a joystick that can be directly interfaced with the controller or with commands that are sent from other systems that are either on or o of the Omnibot. Both control modes require encoder feedback to ensure commanded velocities are being executed as specified. Global control requires feedback from an indoor localization system to determine the Omnibot's pose. Early implementation of the localization system is discussed. An open source robotics software, known as Robot Operating System (ROS) was selected for implementation of the Omnibot systems. ROS serves as a middleware which allows components, such as the localization system and remote desktop, to communicate with each other through a decoupled messaging system. ROS is modular and exible, allowing for easy adaptation of future components. Test results of the Omnibot in operation are presented.

Abstract:
La crescente disponibilità di dispositivi meccanici e -soprattutto - elettronici le cui performance aumentano mentre il loro costo diminuisce, ha permesso al campo della robotica di compiere notevoli progressi. Tali progressi non sono stati fatti unicamente per ciò che riguarda la robotica per uso industriale, nelle catene di montaggio per esempio, ma anche per quella branca della robotica che comprende i robot autonomi domestici. Questi sistemi autonomi stanno diventando, per i suddetti motivi, sempre più pervasivi, ovvero sono immersi nello stesso ambiente nel quale vivono gli essere umani, e interagiscono con questi in maniera proattiva. Essi stanno compiendo quindi lo stesso percorso che hanno attraversato i personal computer all'incirca 30 anni fa, passando dall'essere costosi ed ingombranti mainframe a disposizione unicamente di enti di ricerca ed università, ad essere presenti all'interno di ogni abitazione, per un utilizzo non solo professionale ma anche di assistenza alle attività quotidiane o anche di intrattenimento. Per questi motivi la robotica è un campo dell'Information Technology che interessa sempre più tutti i tipi di programmatori software. Questa tesi analizza per prima cosa gli aspetti salienti della programmazione di controllori per robot autonomi (ovvero senza essere guidati da un utente), quindi, come l'approccio basato su agenti sia appropriato per la programmazione di questi sistemi. In particolare si mostrerà come un approccio ad agenti, utilizzando il linguaggio di programmazione Jason e quindi l'architettura BDI, sia una scelta significativa, dal momento che il modello sottostante a questo tipo di linguaggio è basato sul ragionamento pratico degli esseri umani (Human Practical Reasoning) e quindi è adatto alla implementazione di sistemi che agiscono in maniera autonoma. Dato che le possibilità di utilizzare un vero e proprio sistema autonomo per poter testare i controllori sono ridotte, per motivi pratici, economici e temporali, mostreremo come è facile e performante arrivare in maniera rapida ad un primo prototipo del robot tramite l'utilizzo del simulatore commerciale Webots. Il contributo portato da questa tesi include la possibilità di poter programmare un robot in maniera modulare e rapida per mezzo di poche linee di codice, in modo tale che l'aumento delle funzionalità di questo risulti un collo di bottiglia, come si verifica nella programmazione di questi sistemi tramite i classici linguaggi di programmazione imperativi. L'organizzazione di questa tesi prevede un capitolo di background nel quale vengono riportare le basi della robotica, della sua programmazione e degli strumenti atti allo scopo, un capitolo che riporta le nozioni di programmazione ad agenti, tramite il linguaggio Jason -quindi l'architettura BDI - e perché tale approccio è adatto alla programmazione di sistemi di controllo per la robotica. Successivamente viene presentata quella che è la struttura completa del nostro ambiente di lavoro software che comprende l'ambiente ad agenti e il simulatore, quindi nel successivo capitolo vengono mostrate quelle che sono le esplorazioni effettuate utilizzando Jason e un approccio classico (per mezzo di linguaggi classici), attraverso diversi casi di studio di crescente complessità; dopodiché, verrà effettuata una valutazione tra i due approcci analizzando i problemi e i vantaggi che comportano questi. Infine, la tesi terminerà con un capitolo di conclusioni e di riflessioni sulle possibili estensioni e lavori futuri.

Abstract:
Soft robots have the potential to transform the way robots interact with their environment. This is due to their low inertia and inherent ability to more safely interact with the world without damaging themselves or the people around them. However, existing sensing for soft robots has at least partially limited their ability to control interactions with their environment. Tactile sensors could enable soft robots to sense interaction, but most tactile sensors are made from rigid substrates and are not well suited to applications for soft robots that can deform. In addition, the benefit of being able to cheaply manufacture soft robots may be lost if the tactile sensors that cover them are expensive and their resolution does not scale well for manufacturability. Soft robots not only need to know their interaction forces due to contact with their environment, they also need to know where they are in Cartesian space. Because soft robots lack a rigid structure, traditional methods of joint estimation found in rigid robots cannot be employed on soft robotic platforms. This requires a different approach to soft robot pose estimation. This thesis will discuss both tactile force sensing and pose estimation methods for soft-robots. A method to make affordable, high-resolution, tactile sensor arrays (manufactured in rows and columns) that can be used for sensorizing soft robots and other soft bodies isReserved developed. However, the construction results in a sensor array that exhibits significant amounts of cross-talk when two taxels in the same row are compressed. Using the same fabric-based tactile sensor array construction design, two different methods for cross-talk compensation are presented. The first uses a mathematical model to calculate a change in resistance of each taxel directly. The second method introduces additional simple circuit components that enable us to isolate each taxel electrically and relate voltage to force directly. This thesis also discusses various approaches in soft robot pose estimation along with a method for characterizing sensors using machine learning. Particular emphasis is placed on the effectiveness of parameter-based learning versus parameter-free learning, in order to determine which method of machine learning is more appropriate and accurate for soft robot pose estimation. Various machine learning architectures, such as recursive neural networks and convolutional neural networks, are also tested to demonstrate the most effective architecture to use for characterizing soft-robot sensors.

BURKE, DAVID ALEXANDER. A conservative approach to mounting and applying an omni-directional vision system onto EvBot II mobile robot platforms, for use in accurate formation control (Under the direction of Edward Grant). The research sensing capabilities of the EvBot II mobile robot platforms were increased and enhanced by the addition of the omni-directional camera. This, along with the associated machine vision capabilities maintained the conservative approach of the EvBot II philosophy, fiscal responsibility with computational optimality. The research increased the capabilities of the EvBot II platform by demonstrating that omni-directional vision processing could be performed relatively economically on a PC 104, while leaving as much processor time available as possible for running other programs.

Abstract:
The Vidéothèque de Paris, a video archive of the city’s past that opened in 1988, provides the opportunity to take stock of over a hundred years of putting pictures of Paris’s past at the heart of municipal policy and prestige. While its futuristic viewing pods, robots, and searchable databases seem to predict the future of the Internet, video-sharing platforms, and digital history, the Vidéothèque also reveals how the production and circulation of images are not just windows onto urban change but part and parcel of that history. Photographs shaped the historical imagination in the twentieth century in significant ways. People learned to read photographs as history, while simultaneously believing them to provide transparent, direct access to the past. Photographs forged individual and collective memory. And, their circulation and institutionalization paved the way for arguments about Paris’s reduction to an image or a museum city in the twentieth century.

Abstract:
This paper explores the fundamentals of parallel robots with configurable platforms (PRCP), as well as the design and the kinematic analysis of those. The concept behind PRCP is that the rigid (non-configurable) end-effector is replaced by a closed-loop chain, the configurable platform. The use of a closed-loop chain allows the robot to interact with the environment from multiple contact points on the platform, which reflects the presence of multiple end-effectors. This results in a robot that successfully combines motion and grasping capabilities into a structure that provides an inherent high stiffness. This paper aims to introduce the QuadroG robot, a 4 degrees of freedom PRCP which finely merges planar motion together with grasping capabilities.

Abstract:
In this paper, we consider the problem of cooperatively localizing a formation of networked robots/vehicles in SE(2). First, we propose necessary and sufficient conditions to establish when a team of robots with heterogeneous sensors can be localized. We then show how these conditions are analogous to well-known results in the literature on kinematics of planar mechanisms. We show how localization is equivalent to solving a system of nonlinear closure equations. Depending on what sensors are available for each robot, the multirobot formation can be modeled as a sensing graph consisting of vertices representing robots and edges corresponding to sensory information. We establish conditions that must be satisfied by this graph and show how this graph influences estimates of positions and orientations of the robots in a team through experiments and simulations.

Abstract:
Abstract As the underwater structures of offshore Jacket platforms are always immersed in seawater, the marine growth, which include various forms of algae, slime, and seaweed, barnacles, mussels and other species of adhesive shellfish, will attach to steel-pipe surface and will accelerate structural corrosion and impair structural safety. Currently, routine cleaning and inspection task is undertaken by divers using cleaning jets in normally every 3∼5 years. The cleaning duration for one single platform will take up more than two months, even up to half a year, due to the constraints of weather windows and limited working hours of divers. It is a risky job for divers not only because of huge pressures that water-jets produce, but also the harsh working conditions of poor visibility, unexpected vortex and waves around platform, and etc. Underwater robots are being developed for various applications in offshore oil industry ranging from inspection to maintenance and cleaning of submerged surfaces and constructions. This paper introduces a novel underwater robot specializing in cleaning marine growth for offshore Jackets. Since the diameter of steel-pipes varies from about 600mm to 2000mm, a self-adapted mechanism is designed. The self-adaption mechanism makes the robot travel on pipes in different directions with high mobility and clean continuous region of underwater pipes’ surface at the same time. Two key issues have been studied in this paper. The magnetic adhesion method is adopted in the robot. A sensitivity study on the distance between steel-pipes and thickness of steel pipes with the adhesion force are conducted both using finite element method and experiments. Besides, the flushing capability for various nozzles has been simulated using computational fluid dynamics method. The proposed underwater robot is needed in the inspection and maintenance of offshore Jacket platforms. Compared with traditional maintenance by divers, it is more efficient, economic and safe.

Abstract:
The transition from open surgery to Laparoendoscopic Single-Site (LESS) surgery to minimize cost and recovery time and improve cosmetic scarring has introduced complexities such as reduced dexterity, restricted workspace, and unintuitive controls. Surgical robotic systems can come into play to address these complexities. The most recent miniature in vivo robots have demonstrated the capability of performing LESS surgery. Since size has been a key driving force for designing these motor-driven robotic platforms, delivering adequate force and torque to perform the surgical tasks has been a primary challenge for improving these robots. This paper presents a robotic platform actuated primarily by pneumatics, offering the following advantages over motor-driven systems: higher joint torque and tool actuation force, faster actuation, better biocompatibility, better overall robustness, and lower cost. Initially one representative robot joint has been fabricated, to demonstrate the proof of concept and investigate the feasibility of angular position control of the pneumatic joint by deploying a minimal number of electronic components and two low-cost solenoid valves in place of costly fast solenoid valves or expensive servo valves. The robot design, pneumatic system, implementation of PID and PWM controls, and experimental results are presented.

Full text
Abstract:
A lack or limited availability for parking may have multiple consequences, not the least of which is driver frustration, congestion, and air pollution. However, there is a greater problem that is not widely recognized by the public, namely the negative effect on the use of transit systems due to insufficient parking spaces close to key transit stations. Automated parking management systems, which have been successfully deployed in several European and Japanese cities, can manage parking needs at transit stations more effectively than other alternatives. Numerous studies have confirmed that quick and convenient automobile access to park-and-ride lots can be essential to making public transit competitive with the automobile in suburban areas. Automated parking systems use a robotic platform that carries each vehicle to one of the locations in a custom designed structure. Each location is designed compactly so that considerably more vehicles can be parked in the automated garages than the traditional parking lots. Central to the design of these systems are three key technologies, namely: 1. Mechanical design and the operation of vehicle transfer, i.e., the robotic platform 2. Structural and architectural requirements to meet safety and earthquake standards, among other design imperatives, 3. Automation and intelligent control issues as related to the overall operation and system engineering. This article concerns the first technology, and more specifically the design of the robotic platform for vehicle transfers. We will outline the overall design of the robot and the shuttle, followed by a description of the prototype that was developed in our laboratories. Subsequently, performance related issues and scalability of the current design will be analyzed.

Abstract:
This US Army Engineer Research and Development Center, Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory, technical report details guiBathy, a graphical user interface to estimate nearshore bathymetry from imagery collected via a hovering Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). guiBathy provides an end-to-end solution for non-subject-matter-experts to utilize commercia-off-the-shelf UAS to collect quantitative imagery of the nearshore by packaging robust photogrammetric and signal-processing algorithms into an easy-to-use software interface. This report begins by providing brief background on coastal imaging and the photogrammetry and bathymetric inversion algorithms guiBathy utilizes, as well as UAS data collection requirements. The report then describes guiBathy software specifications, features, and workflow. Example guiBathy applications conclude the report with UAS bathymetry measurements taken during the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season, which compare favorably (root mean square error = 0.44 to 0.72 m; bias = -0.35 to -0.11 m) with in situ survey measurements. guiBathy is a standalone executable software for Windows 10 platforms and will be freely available at www.github.com/erdc.
