Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book we have grouped contributions in 28 chapters from several authors all around the world on the several aspects and challenges of research and applications of robots with the aim to show the recent advances and problems that still need to be considered for future improvements of robot success in worldwide frames. Each chapter addresses a specific area of modeling, design, and application of robots but with an eye to give an integrated view of what make a robot a unique modern system for many different uses and future potential applications. Main attention has been focused on design issues as thought challenging for improving capabilities and further possibilities of robots for new and old applications, as seen from today technologies and research programs. Thus, great attention has been addressed to control aspects that are strongly evolving also as function of the improvements in robot modeling, sensors, servo-power systems, and informatics. But even other aspects are considered as of fundamental challenge both in design and use of robots with improved performance and capabilities, like for example kinematic design, dynamics, vision integration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robot manipulators are developing more in the direction of industrial robots than of human workers. Recently, the applications of robot manipulators are spreading their focus, for example Da Vinci as a medical robot, ASIMO as a humanoid robot and so on. There are many research topics within the field of robot manipulators, e.g. motion planning, cooperation with a human, and fusion with external sensors like vision, haptic and force, etc. Moreover, these include both technical problems in the industry and theoretical problems in the academic fields. This book is a collection of papers presenting the latest research issues from around the world.

Download or read book Computational Intelligence for COVID 19 and Future Pandemics written by Utku Kose and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book covers a wide topic collection starting from essentials of Computational Intelligence to advance, and possible application types against COVID-19 as well as its effects on the field of medical, social, and different data-oriented research scopes. Among these topics, the book also covers very recently, vital topics in terms of fighting against COVID-19 and solutions for future pandemics. The book includes the use of computational intelligence for especially medical diagnosis and treatment, and also data-oriented tracking-predictive solutions, which are key components currently for fighting against COVID-19. In this way, the book will be a key reference work for understanding how computational intelligence and the most recent technologies (i.e. Internet of Healthcare Thing, big data, and data science techniques) can be employed in solution phases and how they change the way of future solutions. The book also covers research works with negative results so that possible disadvantages of using computational intelligence solutions and/or experienced side-effects can be known widely for better future of medical solutions and use of intelligent systems against COVID-19 and pandemics. The book is considering both theoretical and applied views to enable readers to be informed about not only research works but also theoretical views about essentials/components of intelligent systems against COVID-19/pandemics, possible modeling scenarios with current and future perspective as well as solution strategies thought by researchers all over the world.
Download or read book Safe Motion Planning Under Uncertainty for Mobile Manipulators in Unknown Environments written by Vinay Kumar Pilania and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a mobile manipulator to operate and perform useful tasks in human-centered environments, it is important to work toward the realization of robust motion planners that incorporate uncertainty inherent in robot's control and sensing and provide safe motion plans for reliable robot operation. Designing such planners pose a significant challenge because of computational complexity associated with mobile manipulator planning and planning under uncertainty. Current planning approaches for mobile manipulation are often conservative in nature and the uncertainty is largely ignored. In this thesis, we propose sampling-based efficient and robust mobile manipulator planners that use smart strategies to deal with computational complexity and incorporate uncertainty to generate safer plans. The first part of the research addresses the design of an efficient planner for deterministic case, where robot state is fully known, and then subsequent extension to incorporate base pose uncertainty. In the first part, we propose a Hierarchical and Adaptive Mobile Manipulator Planner (HAMP) that plans both for the base and the arm in a judicious manner - allowing the manipulator to change its configuration autonomously when needed if the current arm configuration is in collision with the environment as the mobile manipulator moves along the planned path. We show that HAMP is probabilistically complete. We then propose an extension of HAMP (HAMP-U) to account for localization uncertainty associated with the mobile base position. The advantages of our planners are illustrated and discussed. The second part of the research deals with the computational complexity involved in planning under uncertainty. For that, we propose localization aware sampling and connection strategies that help to reduce the planning time significantly with little compromise on the quality of path. In the third part, we learnt from the shortcomings of HAMP-U and took advantage of our smart strategies developed to combat the computational complexity. We propose an efficient and robust mobile manipulator planner (HAMP-BAU) that plans judiciously and considers the base pose uncertainty and the effects of this uncertainty on manipulator motions. It uses our localization aware sampling and connection strategies to consider only those nodes and edges which contribute toward better localization. This helps to find the same quality of path in shorter time. We also extend HAMP-BAU to incorporate task space constraints (HAMP-BAU-TC). Finally, in the last part of the work, we incorporate our planners (HAMP-BAU and HAMP-BAU-TC) within an integrated and fully autonomous system for mobile pick-and-place tasks in unknown static environments. We demonstrate our system both in simulation and real experiments on SFU mobile manipulator.
