2. 21. Discrete-Time Cellular Neural Networks Implemented on Field-Programmable Gate-Arrays to Build a Virtual Sensor System

   Author : Suleyman Malki; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cellular Neural Networks; Image processing; Discrete-Time Cellular Neural Networks; Packet switching; FPGA; Velocity measurement; Autowaves; Robot navigation;

   Abstract : Image processing is one of the popular applications of Cellular Neural Networks. Macro enriched field-programmable gate-arrays can be used to realize such systems on silicon. At first glance a pipelined approach, based on circuit switching, seems promising. READ MORE

4. 22. Reactive Motion Planning and Control under Constraints

   Author : Albin Dahlin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; computational geometry; online trajectory generation; navigation; optimization-based control; robotics; dynamical systems;

   Abstract : Modern robots are increasingly being designed to operate in dynamic and unstructured environments shared with humans and other mobile agents. In these scenarios, the robot must react to any online detected changes to provide a correct and safe operation. READ MORE

5. 23. Helping robots help us : Using prior information for localization, navigation, and human-robot interaction

   Author : Malcolm Mielle; Martin Magnusson; Achim Lilienthal; Erik Schaffernicht; Marjorie Skubic; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; graph-based SLAM; prior map; sketch map; emergency map; map matching; graph matching; segmentation; search and rescue;

   Abstract : Maps are often used to provide information and guide people. Emergency maps or floor plans are often displayed on walls and sketch maps can easily be drawn to give directions. However, robots typically assume that no knowledge of the environment is available before exploration even though making use of prior maps could enhance robotic mapping. READ MORE

6. 24. Human-Robot Interaction for Semi-Autonomous Assistive Robots : Empirical Studies and an Interaction Concept for Supporting Elderly People at Home

   Author : Marcus Mast; Arne Jönsson; Michael Burmester; Jonas Lundberg; Tony Belpaeme; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Semi-autonomous assistive robots; human-robot interaction; user interface design; teleoperation; telemanipulation; elderly people; global environment maps; stereoscopy; Semi-autonoma robotar; människa-robotinteraktion; gränssnittsdesign; distansstyrning; distansmanipulation; äldre; globala omgivningskartor; stereoskopisk;

   Abstract : The research addresses current shortcomings of autonomous service robots operating in domestic environments by considering the concept of a semi-autonomous robot that would be supported by human remote operators whenever the robot cannot handle a task autonomously. The main research objective was to investigate how to design the human-robot interaction for a robotic system to assist elderly people with physical tasks at home according to this conceptual idea.

7. 25. Synergistic Strategies in Multi-Robot Systems: Exploring Task Assignment and Multi-Agent Pathfinding

   Author : Yifan Bai; George Nikolakopoulos; Tomi Westerlund; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Autonomous robots; Multi-robot systems; Task assignment; Multi-agent path-finding; Robotics and Artificial Intelligence; Robotik och artificiell intelligens;

   Abstract : Robots are increasingly utilized in industry for their capability to perform repetitive,complex tasks in environments unsuitable for humans. This surge in robotic applicationshas spurred research into Multi-Robot Systems (MRS), which aim to tackle complex tasksrequiring collaboration among multiple robots, thereby boosting overall efficiency.
