Book Robotics Research

Download or read book Robotics Research written by Cédric Pradalier and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-05-02 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a collection of papers presented at the 14th International Symposium of Robotic Research (ISRR). ISRR is the biennial meeting of the International Foundation of Robotic Research (IFRR) and its 14th edition took place in Lucerne, Switzerland, from August 31st to September 3rd, 2009. As for the previous symposia, ISRR 2009 followed up on the successful concept of a mixture of invited contributions and open submissions. Half of the 48 presentations were therefore invited contributions from outstanding researchers selected by the IFRR officers, and half were chosen among the 66 submissions after peer review. This selection process resulted in a truly excellent technical program which, we believe, featured some of the very best of robotic research. Out of the 48 presentations, the 42 papers which were finally submitted for publication are organized in 8 sections that encompass the major research orientations in robotics: Navigation, Control & Planning, Human-Robot Interaction, Manipulation and Humanoids, Learning, Mapping, Multi-Robot Systems, and Micro-Robotics. They represent an excellent snapshot of cutting-edge research in robotics and outline future directions.

Book Open World Collision Detection in Computer Games Development  UTeM Press

Download or read book Open World Collision Detection in Computer Games Development UTeM Press written by Hamzah Asyrani Sulaiman and published by UTeM Press. This book was released on 2020-01-09 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open world games have tremendously become a demanding criterion for computer games development as user be able to freely roam through land and sea virtually. One of the elements involving computer games development is to bring applicable real-time collision detection for each object. Collision detection required sophisticated process of using hierarchical approach of Bounding-Volume Hierarchies (BVH) for detecting procedure. BVH is one of the most challenging issues in collision detection area that critically undergoing multiple splitting process. Splitting process requires an object with their set of triangles to be split into two parts using binary type tree. It is very crucial to make sure that the BVH tree construction is always in balanced as the speed of BVH tree traversal algorithm is dropped for unbalanced tree. In this thesis, we introduced Spatial Object Median Splitting (SOMS) to enhance the capability of BVH construction. Hence, SOMS creates an optimum level of BVH where most leaf nodes that was bounded with AABB contained one triangle compared to Spatial Median technique. From the BVH construction experiments, SOMS managed to perform faster as compared to other common technique. Furthermore, experiment to create one BV one triangle also showed that SOMS produced more nodes. As a conclusion, BVH can easily be constructed using SOMS approach together to create higher level of balanced tree for collision detection.

Book Handbook of Discrete and Computational Geometry

Download or read book Handbook of Discrete and Computational Geometry written by Csaba D. Toth and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 2354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of Discrete and Computational Geometry is intended as a reference book fully accessible to nonspecialists as well as specialists, covering all major aspects of both fields. The book offers the most important results and methods in discrete and computational geometry to those who use them in their work, both in the academic world—as researchers in mathematics and computer science—and in the professional world—as practitioners in fields as diverse as operations research, molecular biology, and robotics. Discrete geometry has contributed significantly to the growth of discrete mathematics in recent years. This has been fueled partly by the advent of powerful computers and by the recent explosion of activity in the relatively young field of computational geometry. This synthesis between discrete and computational geometry lies at the heart of this Handbook. A growing list of application fields includes combinatorial optimization, computer-aided design, computer graphics, crystallography, data analysis, error-correcting codes, geographic information systems, motion planning, operations research, pattern recognition, robotics, solid modeling, and tomography.

Book High Fidelity Haptic Rendering

Download or read book High Fidelity Haptic Rendering written by Miguel Otaduy and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human haptic system, among all senses, provides unique and bidirectional communication between humans and their physical environment. Yet, to date, most human-computer interactive systems have focused primarily on the graphical rendering of visual information and, to a lesser extent, on the display of auditory information. Extending the frontier of visual computing, haptic interfaces, or force feedback devices, have the potential to increase the quality of human-computer interaction by accommodating the sense of touch. They provide an attractive augmentation to visual display and enhance the level of understanding of complex data sets. They have been effectively used for a number of applications including molecular docking, manipulation of nano-materials, surgical training, virtual prototyping, and digital sculpting. Compared with visual and auditory display, haptic rendering has extremely demanding computational requirements. In order to maintain a stable system while displaying smooth and realistic forces and torques, high haptic update rates in the range of 500-1000 Hz or more are typically used. Haptics present many new challenges to researchers and developers in computer graphics and interactive techniques. Some of the critical issues include the development of novel data structures to encode shape and material properties, as well as new techniques for geometry processing, data analysis, physical modeling, and haptic visualization. This synthesis examines some of the latest developments on haptic rendering, while looking forward to exciting future research in this area. It presents novel haptic rendering algorithms that take advantage of the human haptic sensory modality. Specifically it discusses different rendering techniques for various geometric representations (e.g. point-based, polygonal, multiresolution, distance fields, etc), as well as textured surfaces. It also shows how psychophysics of touch can provide the foundational design guidelines for developing perceptually driven force models and concludes with possible applications and issues to consider in future algorithmic design, validating rendering techniques, and evaluating haptic interfaces.
