Abstract:

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) face challenges in implementing industrial robotics in their manufacturing due to limited resources and expertise. There is still good economic potential in using industrial robotics, however, due to manufacturers leaning toward newer technology and automated processes. The research on sustainability decision-making for transitioning a traditional process to a robotic process is limited for SMEs. This study presents a systemic framework for assessing the sustainability of implementing robotic techniques in key processes that would benefit SMEs. The framework identifies several key economic, technical, and managerial decision-making factors during the transition phase. Sustainability assessments, including cost, environmental impact, and social impact, are used in the framework for engineers and managers to evaluate the technical and sustainability trade-offs of the transition. A case study was conducted on a typical US metal fabrication SME focusing on transitioning a shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) process to a robotic gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process. A sustainability assessment was conducted following the framework. The results suggest that the transition phase involves numerous factors for engineers and managers to consider and the proposed framework will benefit SMEs by providing an analytical method for industrial robotics implementation decision-making.

Abstract:

This article discusses the need for an ethical framework for emerging robotic technologies. The temptation, arguably driven by sci-fi treatments of artificial intelligence, is to ask whether future robots should be considered quasi-humans. This article argues that such sci-fi scenarios have little relevance for current technological developments in robotics, nor for ethical approaches to the subject: for the foreseeable future robots will merely be useful tools. In response to emerging robotic technologies, this article proposes an ethical framework that makes a commitment to human rights, human dignity and responsibility a central priority for those developing robots. At a policy level, this entails (1) assessing whether the use of particular robots would result in human rights violations and (2) creating adequate institutions through which human individuals can be held responsible for what robots do.

Abstract:

An emerging need for interactive architecture is currently making buildings mutable, flexible in use, and adaptable to changes in climate by introducing robotic systems. However, the feasibility of the seamless integration of building construction details and kinetic robotics has become a critical issue for developing robotic architecture. The objective of this work is to develop a robotic architecture with an emphasis on the integration of cellular robotics with a distributed kinetic building surface. The kinetic building surface integrates an actuating system, a localization and remote control system, which become part of the kinetic building system. This paper presents a systematic framework by reviewing theories and related work of robotic architecture and automated control. An architectural design scheme is proposed to simulate a scenario of application in a physical space. The functionality of the electrical and control system and the integration of the effects of actual construction were examined by a prototype of a kinetic surface. Our prototype presents a feasible construction method, and a prominent energy-saving effect. The potential strength and restrictions of the cellular robotic approach to architectural applications are discussed. The applicability of the prototype system and issues about controlling the behavior of spatial robots are demonstrated in this paper.

Abstract:

Robotic technologies?constructed systems that interact with their environment in a way that displays some level of agency?are increasingly intertwined with human life and human bodies. This raises many regulatory questions, since current legal frameworks have few robotics-specific provisions and robotics pose new challenges to legal notions and underlying assumptions. To help guide the regulation of robotics, fundamental rights should provide a basic touchstone. However, the constitutional framework of fundamental rights is itself not immune to being influenced by robotics. This paper discusses how the protection of fundamental rights is affected by robotics technologies, taking into account the mutual-shaping process of fundamental rights, regulation, and technology. After a general overview of how fundamental rights are challenged by robotics technologies, we zoom in on three specific application domains: industrial robotics and the issue of workers’ rights and liability, assistive technology with a focus on autonomy and privacy of elderly and disabled people, and biomedical robotics (including brain-machine interfaces) in relation to informed consent and self-determination. The analysis highlights diverse implications of robotics in light of fundamental rights and values, suggesting that regulators will have to deal with rights and value conflicts arising from robotics developments. To help address these conflicts, a set of shared norms, standards and guidelines could be developed that may, in the form of soft-law, serve as a bridge between abstract fundamental rights and concrete robotics practice.

Abstract:

Several algorithms and models have recently been proposed for imitation learning in humans and robots. However, few proposals offer a framework for imitation learning in noisy stochastic environments where the imitator must learn and act under real-time performance constraints. We present a novel probabilistic framework for imitation learning in stochastic environments with unreliable sensors. Bayesian algorithms, based on Meltzoff and Moore's AIM hypothesis for action imitation, implement the core of an imitation learning framework. Our algorithms are computationally efficient, allowing real-time learning and imitation in an active stereo vision robotic head and on a humanoid robot. We present simulated and real-world robotics results demonstrating the viability of our approach. We conclude by advocating a research agenda that promotes interaction between cognitive and robotic studies of imitation.

Abstract:

We describe IoTCloud, a platform to connect smart devices to cloud services for real time data processing and control. A device connected to IoTCloud can communicate with real time data analysis frameworks deployed in the cloud via messaging. The platform design is scalable in connecting devices as well as transferring and processing data. With IoTCloud, a user can develop real time data processing algorithms in an abstract framework without concern for the underlying details of how the data is distributed and transferred. For this platform, we primarily consider real time robotics applications such as autonomous robot navigation, where there are strict requirements on processing latency and demand for scalable processing. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the system, a robotic application is developed on top of the framework. The system and the robotics application characteristics are measured to show that data processing in central servers is feasible for real time sensor applications.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper reports the implementation of a supervisory control framework and modular software architecture built around the lightweight communication and marshalling (LCM) publish/subscribe message passing system. In particular, we examine two diverse marine robotics applications using this modular system: (i) the development of an unmanned port security vehicle, a robotic surface platform to support first responders reacting to transportation security incidents in harbor environments, and (ii) the adaptation of a commercial off-the-shelf autonomous underwater vehicle (the Ocean-Server Iver2) for visual feature-based navigation. In both cases, the modular vehicle software infrastructures are based around the open-source LCM software library for low-latency, real-time message passing. To elucidate the real-world application of LCM in marine robotic systems, we present the software architecture of these two successful marine robotic applications and illustrate the capabilities and flexibilities of this approach to real-time marine robotics. We present benchmarking test results comparing the throughput of LCM with the Mission-Oriented Operating Suite, another robot software system popular in marine robotics. Experimental results demonstrate the capacity of the LCM framework to make large amounts of actionable information available to the operator and to allow for distributed supervisory control. We also provide a discussion of the qualitative tradeoffs involved in selecting software infrastructure for supervisory control.

Full text

Abstract:

One of the key interesting features of collaborative robotic applications is the potential to lighten the worker workload and potentiate better working conditions. Moreover, developing robotics applications that meets ergonomic criteria is not always a straightforward endeavor. We propose a framework to guide the safe design and conceptualization of ergonomic-driven collaborative robotics workstations. A multi-disciplinary approach involving robotics and ergonomics and human factors shaped this methodology that leads future engineers through the digital transformation of a manual assembly (with repetitive and hazardous operations) to a hybrid workstation, focusing on the physical ergonomic improvement. The framework follows four main steps, (i) the characterization of the initial condition, (ii) the risk assessment, (iii) the definition of requirements for a safe design, and (iv) the conceptualization of the hybrid workstation with all the normative implications it entails. We applied this methodology to a case study in an assembly workstation of a furniture manufacturing company. Results show that the methodology adopted sets an adequate foundation to accelerate the design and development of new human-centered collaborative robotic workstations.

Abstract:

Unlike conventional software, robotic software suffers from a lack of methods and processes that could systematize and facilitate development. Thus, the application of software engineering techniques is at the heart of current issues in robotics. The work presented in this paper aims to facilitate the development of robotic software and to facilitate communication between experts in the field through the use of software engineering techniques and methods. It proposes RsaML (Robotic Software Architecture Modeling Language), a Domain Specific Modeling Language (DSML) dedicated to robotics, which takes into account the different categories of robotic software architectures and makes it possible to describe the latter independently from the implementation platform. The conceptual model defining the terminology and the hierarchy of concepts used for the description and representation of robotic software architectures in RsaML are presented in this article. RsaML is defined through a meta-model which represents the abstract syntax of the language. The real-time properties of robotic software architectures are identified and included in the meta-model. The use of RsaML is illustrated through several experimental scenarios of the language: the definition of a robotic system and the description of its software architecture, the verification of the semantics of a robotic software architecture, and the modeling of a robotic system whose software architecture does not belong to the usual categories. The support tool used for implementations and experimentation is Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF). The results of experimentation showed good working of the proposed solution and made it possible to validate the main concepts of the RsaML language.

Abstract:

As robots become more and more prevalent in our everyday life, making sure that our interactions with them are natural and satisfactory is of paramount importance. Given the propensity of humans to treat machines as social actors, and the integral role affect plays in human life, providing robots with affective responses is a step towards making our interaction with them more intuitive. To the end of promoting more natural, satisfying and effective human-robot interaction and enhancing robotic behavior in general, an integrative framework of time-varying affective robotic behavior was designed and implemented on a humanoid robot. This psychologically inspired framework (TAME) encompasses 4 different yet interrelated affective phenomena: personality Traits, affective Attitudes, Moods and Emotions. Traits determine consistent patterns of behavior across situations and environments and are generally time-invariant; attitudes are long-lasting and reflect likes or dislikes towards particular objects, persons, or situations; moods are subtle and relatively short in duration, biasing behavior according to favorable or unfavorable conditions; and emotions provide a fast yet short-lived response to environmental contingencies. The software architecture incorporating the TAME framework was designed as a stand-alone process to promote platform-independence and applicability to other domains. In this dissertation, the effectiveness of affective robotic behavior was explored and evaluated in a number of human-robot interaction studies with over 100 participants. In one of these studies, the impact of Negative Mood and emotion of Fear was assessed in a mock-up search-and-rescue scenario, where the participants found the robot expressing affect more compelling, sincere, convincing and "conscious" than its non-affective counterpart. Another study showed that different robotic personalities are better suited for different tasks: an extraverted robot was found to be more welcoming and fun for a task as a museum robot guide, where an engaging and gregarious demeanor was expected; whereas an introverted robot was rated as more appropriate for a problem solving task requiring concentration. To conclude, multi-faceted robotic affect can have far-reaching practical benefits for human-robot interaction, from making people feel more welcome where gregariousness is expected to making unobtrusive partners for problem solving tasks to saving people's lives in dangerous situations.

Abstract:

Cette thèse concerne le développement d'un cadre de contrôle robotique pour l'élastographie ultrasonore quantitative. L'élastographie ultrasonore est une technique qui dévoile les paramètres élastiques du tissu qui sont généralement liés à une pathologie. Cette thèse propose trois nouvelles approches robotiques différentes pour pour assister la procédure d'élastographie. La première approche concerne le contrôle d'un robot actionnant une sonde à ultrasons pour effectuer un mouvement de palpation nécessaire pour l'élastographie par ultrasons. L'élasticité du tissu est utilisée pour concevoir une loi d'asservissement afin de maintenir un tissu d'intérêt rigide dans le champ de vision de la sonde ultrasonore. De plus, l'orientation de la sonde est contrôlée par un utilisateur humain pour explorer différentes vues du tissu pendant que l'élastographie est effectuée. La seconde approche exploite le recalage d'images déformables avec des images ultrasonores pour estimer l'élasticité tissulaire et aider à la compensation automatique par asservissement visuel ultrasonore d'un mouvement introduit dans le tissu. La troisième approche offre une méthodologie pour ressentir l'élasticité du tissu en déplaçant une sonde virtuelle dans l'image ultrasonore avec un dispositif haptique pendant que le robot effectue un mouvement de palpation. Les résultats expérimentaux des trois approches robotiques obtenus sur des fantômes constitués de tissus démontrent l'efficacité des méthodes proposées et ouvre des perspectives intéressantes pour l'élastographie ultrasonore assistée par robot<br>This thesis concerns the development of a robotic control framework for quantitative ultrasound elastography. Ultrasound elastography is a technology that unveils elastic parameters of a tissue, which are commonly related with certain pathologies. This thesis proposes three novel robotic approaches to assist examiners with elastography. The first approach deals with the control of a robot actuating an ultrasound probe to perform palpation motion required for ultrasound elastography. The elasticity of the tissue is used to design a servo control law to keep a stiff tissue of interest in the field of view of the ultrasound probe. Additionally, the orientation of the probe is controlled by a human user to explore other tissue while elastography is performed. The second approach exploits deformable image registration of ultrasound images to estimate the tissue elasticity and to help in the automatic compensation by ultrasound visual servoing of a motion introduced into the tissue. The third approach offers a methodology to feel the elasticity of the tissue by moving a virtual probe in the ultrasound image with a haptic device while the robot is performing palpation motion. Experimental results of the three robotic approaches over phantoms with tissue-like offer an excellent perspective for robotic-assistance for ultrasound elastography

Abstract:

This thesis describes an approach to robotic assembly planning based on a logic of <i>plan specification</i> formulae. These formulae consist of a term representing the plan, a description of the states before and after the plan is performed (using a simple but structured world model), and a set of literals which can be evaluated as Prolog goals to test preconditions and generate terms to appear in the postconditions. The specifications for the atomic actions are given as axioms and planning takes place by attempting to prove the specification for the desired plan, decomposing it by the reverse application of inference rules that state how the specification for a plan can be deduced from those of its subplans. These are derived from the definitions of the temporal operators that are used to construct plans. The initial plan may be partially instantiated due to prior constraints on the form of the plan, and the remaining plan variables and atomic action parameters will be instantiated during the course of planning. The planning strategy is expressed using goal-decomposing 'tactics'. The representation of world states is defined using equational logic and (equational) unification is used to 'match' these <i>state specifications</i>. The form of this logic is designed to meet the requirements of <i>behaviour-based</i> systems such as Edinburgh's SOMASS system, which is described in this thesis, and to allow various temporal languages to be used to represent plans, in order to investigate their uses and to develop appropriate planning strategies.

Abstract:

La plupart des applications robotiques, telles que les véhicules autonomes, sont développées à partir d’une page blanche avec quelques rares réutilisations de conceptions ou de codes issus d’anciens projets équivalents. Qui plus est, les systèmes robotiques deviennent de plus en plus critiques, dans la mesure où ils sont déployés dans des environnements peu structurés, et centrés sur l’humain. Ces systèmes à fort contenu logiciel qui utilisent des composants distribués et hétérogènes interagissent dans un environnement dynamique, et incertain. Or, il s’agit là d’étapes indispensables pour la mise en place de méthodes d’évaluation extensibles, ainsi que pour permettre la réutilisation de composants logiciels pré-existants. Le développement de structures logicielles et d’outils de conception d’architectures, orientés pour la robotique, coûte cher en termes de temps et d’effort, et l’absence d’une approche systématique pourrait conduire à la production de conceptions adhoc, peu flexibles et peu réutilisables. Faire de la meta-structure de l’architecture un point de convergence offre de nouvelles possibilités en termes d’interopérabilité, et de partage de la connaissance, au sein des communautés dédiées à la mise en place d’architectures et de structures. Nous suivons cette direction, en proposant un modèle commun, et en fournissant une approche méthodologique systématique aidant à spécifier les différents aspects du développement d’architectures logicielles, et leurs relations au sein d’une structure partagée<br>Most innovative applications having robotic capabilities like self-driving cars are developed from scratch with little reuse of design or code artifacts from previous similar projects. As a result, work at times is duplicated adding time and economic costs. Absence of integrated tools is the real barrier that exists between early adopters of standardization efforts and early majority of research and industrial community. These software intensive systems are composed of distributed, heterogeneous software components interacting in a highly dynamic, uncertain environment. However, no significant systematic software development process is followed in robotics research. The process of developing robotic software frameworks and tools for designing robotic architectures is expensive both in terms of time and effort, and absence of systematic approach may result in ad hoc designs that are not flexible and reusable. Making architecture meta-framework a point of conformance opens new possibilities for interoperability and knowledge sharing in the architecture and framework communities. We tried to make a step in this direction by proposing a common model and by providing a systematic methodological approach that helps in specifying different aspects of software architecture development and their interplay in a framework

Abstract:

Recent developments in embedded systems give robots access to the Internet and make them more flexible and capable of performing more complex applications. However, these robots are still limited in terms of size, CPU power, storage resources and memory. Consequently, these robots have only been manufactured for certain specific applications and cannot be re-used for other applications. This presents us with a challenge to design a software framework - Robot Colony. The Robot Colony enables robots to be suitable for a wide range of applications, not originally received from manufacturers, to achieve greater functionality, flexibility and utility. This research outlines the architecture and functionality of the Robot Colony to support the collaboration between devices in the P2P community and also analyse the JXTA platform, which was the framework originally proposed. Lastly we present a customized P2P architecture that specifically addresses the interaction betweensoftware components across the network. We further discuss the following technologies applied in theframework: * XML-based Directory Service Provider * HTTP-based publish/describe control commands * Remote Process Invoke To fully complete the project, a thorough evaluation of the framework based on either the JXTAplatform or the customized P2P channel has been conducted. This evaluation provides basic statistics data for the proposed framework design and implementation. Further more, we have presented a realtime Demo at the Smart Device lab of the Queensland University of Technology.

Full text

Abstract:

The thesis describes a distributed software environment designed for the development, evaluation and comparison of new techniques in knowledge based control of robot assembly work cells. It has characteristics which fulfil deficiencies within previous systems and contains within it new techniques in task specification, distributed control[1,2], object recognition[3,4] and path planning[5]. The control of the resources within the cell is based upon an extension of the facilities of a classical blackboard architecture to include plan execution. Unlike previous schemes, these additions allow Plethora to reason about the intent of an action, the current state of the cell and asynchronous events within a single framework. It is this seamless operation and extended representational adequacy that allows Plethora to explore new techniques dealing with the uncertainty inherent in a flexible work cell. The task is specified in domain terms and interpreted to produce a partially ordered set of goals. This new technique is based upon a two-stage ordering process using constructional constraints and necessary collision avoidance. Two new methods, one for object identification and the other for path planning, have also been developed using the system. These have two advantages, efficiency and the ability to operate on data from a vision system or Plethora's geometric modeller. Both methods can be completed within the critical times typical of an assembly work cell. Finally, results of an experiment using the system on a laboratory work cell illustrate how it encompasses previous techniques and can be used to develop new techniques not possible with earlier architectures.

Abstract:

As robots leave the lab and are deployed in hospital or other healthcare settings, the community of users may become overreliant on and overtrust such technology. Thus, there is a pressing need to examine the tendency to overtrust and develop strategies to mitigate the risk to children, parents, and healthcare providers that could occur due to an overreliance on pediatric robotics. To overcome this challenge, we seek to consider the broad range of ethical issues related to the use of robots in pediatric healthcare. This chapter provides an overview of the current state of the art in pediatric robotics, describes relevant ethical issues, and examines the role that overtrust plays in these scenarios. We conclude with suggested strategies to mitigate the relevant risks and describe a framework for the future deployment of robots in the pediatric domain.

The Robot Operating System (ROS) is steadily gaining popularity among robotics researchers as an open source framework for robot control. Additionally, the Unified System for Automation and Robot Simulation (USARSim) has already been used for many years by robotics researchers and developers as a validated framework for simulation. This paper presents a new ROS node that is designed to seamlessly interface between ROS and USARSim. It provides for automatic configuration of ROS transforms and topics to allow for full utilization of the simulated hardware. The design of the new node, as well as examples of its use for mobile robot and robotic arm control are presented.

Abstract:

This paper presents the design and initial results of a project involving the robotic assembly of a large segmented structure. This project aims to develop an operator-guided semi-autonomous assembly process using industrial robots integrated with multiple sensors. The goal is to demonstrate the potential of robotic technology to reduce cycle time, enhance assembly quality, and improve worker ergonomics, as compared to the current manual or fixture-based approaches. The focus is primarily on the software framework which is composed of a collection of commercial and customized components for robot positioning, motion planning, low latency teleoperation, visualization and simulation. A foundation step of the implementation is safe teleoperation which allows the user to operate the robot without concern of collision or joint limits. The concept has been demonstrated in RobotStudio, the simulation environment for ABB robots, and a physical ABB robot. While some of the software is specific to the ABB industrial robot used in the project, the framework is readily adapted to other industrial robots that allow externally commanded motion.

Abstract:

Modern manufacturing systems are increasingly becoming highly dynamic due to rapid changes in market and government regulations, as well as the integration of emerging technologies. To address the challenges of uncertainty, a flexible platform is critically needed for developing a new generation of manufacturing systems. This paper presents a mobile agent-based framework that supports dynamic deployment of control algorithms and operations in multi-robotic systems. The framework is based on a mobile agent system called Mobile-C. It uses Ch, an interpretive C/C++ environment, for robot programming. Since Ch has been ported to most existing computer platforms, the framework can control robots that work in different operating systems. Using a robot package in Ch as a middleware, control programs are portable to heterogeneous robots and associated mechatronic devices. The presented framework has been implemented and validated in an experimental robotic cell that consists of a Puma 560, an IBM 7575, and a conveyor system. The results show that the mobile agent approach can effectively deploy and execute new control algorithms and operations as mobile agents on any sub-system in a network.

Abstract:

In recent years, innovative mobility and shifts in travel and consumption behavior are changing how people access and use the curb. Shared mobility—the shared use of a vehicle, bicycle, scooter, or other mode—coupled with outdoor dining, curbside pick-up, and robotic delivery are creating new needs related to the planning, management, and enforcement of curb access. This study examines curb planning and management from several angles, such as safety, social equity, and multimodal connections. This research employs a multi-method approach to identify the changing needs for curb space management and how to meet these needs through new planning and implementation policies and strategies. As part of this study, the authors conducted 23 interviews. Respondents were chosen to represent public, private, and non-profit sector perspectives. Additionally, the authors employed a survey of 1,033 curb users and 241 taxi, transportation network company (TNC), and public transportation drivers. The study finds that changes in mode choice and curbside use can result in a variety of impacts on access, social equity, congestion, device management, pick-up and drop-off, and goods delivery, to name a few. The curb also has the potential to be disrupted by emerging modes, such as robotic delivery vehicles (also known as personal delivery devices) and automated vehicles. As these emerging developments continue to impact the curb, it is becoming increasingly important for policymakers to have an appropriate framework for planning and managing curb space in urban areas.
