Sophisticated computational systems coupled with human-like form and function render such robots as potentially powerful forms of persuasive technology. Currently, there is very little understanding of the persuasive potential of such machines. As personal robots be

Abstract:

Robotics is applied science that is responsible for the design, development, construction, operation and the use of robots and also for the computer systems which are necessary for the robotic control and sensory feedback based on output signals from the sensors and information processing of automated technical robotic systems. Robots are of great use in human life nowadays. They work in places where people cannot work. As more and more robots are designed to perform individual tasks, they must be classified.

Abstract:

Major man-made and natural disasters have a significant and long-lasting economic and social impact on countries around the world. The response eort in the first few hours of the aftermath of the disaster is crucial to saving lives and minimising damage to infrastructure. In these conditions, emergency response organisations on the ground face a major challenge in trying to understand what is happening, and where the casualties are. Crowdsourcing is often used in disasters to analyse the masses of data generated, and report areas of importance to the first responders, but the results are to sl

To help control the high cost of health care delivery, a robotic system is proposed for use in passing surgical instruments in an operating room. The system consists of a vision system, a robotic arm, a speech recognition and synthesis unit, and a microcomputer. A complete vision system has been developed using standard and new techniques to recognize arthroscopic surgical instruments. Results of the vision system software evaluation gave an overall recognition accuracy of over 99%. Also, error conditions were analysed and found to be consistent with the results of a clinical survey on the pr

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

Abstract:

In this thesis, we propose an approach to achieve autonomous task partitioning in swarms of robots. Task partitioning is the process by which tasks are decomposed into sub-tasks and it is often an advantageous way of organizing work in groups of individuals. Therefore, it is interesting to study its application to swarm robotics, in which groups of robots are deployed to collectively carry out a mission. The capability of partitioning tasks autonomously can enhance the flexibility of swarm robotics systems because the robots can adapt the way they decompose and perform their work depending on
