On behalf of the IEEE ICIA 2010 Conference Organizing Committee, it is our great pleasure, an honor, and a privilege to welcome you to Harbin for the 2010 IEEE International Conference on Information and Automation. This conference reflects the growing interests in the broad research areas of information science, mechatronics, robotics, sensors and automation engineering.
Cell and embryo microinjections, like many other biomanipulation tasks, involve delicate and precise manual control of micropipettes under a microscope. These operations are repeatedly carried out by highly trained personnel, who spend hours peering through the binoculars of the microscope. As a result, the taxing working conditions and the skills of the operators have a significant impact on the...
Biomimetic design is a methodology that takes inspiration from natural systems and it is a format that is becoming increasingly effective in the design of future generations of robots that will closely interact with humans. This paper describes the biomimetically inspired design, construction and testing of a robot based on the anatomy of a Gorilla. The paper will show that through the use of novel...
Otologic drill is an important ear surgical instrument and used to mill temporal bone. The cotton which is used to stop bleeding may be entangled with the drill and whirl. The rotary cotton can damage the tissues, such as nerves and cochlea. An intelligent control device has been designed to help doctors to operate the drill and prevent the cotton from causing damage to human. The intelligent control...
Over the past decade, the rapid development of biotechnologies such as gene injection, in-vitro fertilization, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and drug development have led to great demand for highly automated high precision equipment for microinjection. Recently a new cell injection technology using piezo-driven pipettes with a very small mercury column was invented and successfully applied...
In this paper, we propose a new CPG model for the snake-like robot being able to adapt to different environments. This model can produce typical serpentine, sidewinding and traveling wave locomotion gaits and switch between them automatically based on a simple input signal. The stability of this model is verified and the parameter restrictions are determined. Then, we investigate the relationship...
This paper presents the design of a 6-DOF parallel robot used in the artificial cervical disc replacement surgery, which is used to complete positioning and grinding between prosthesis and bone mating surfaces and whose moving platform is connected to the fixed platform by six UPS (Universal-Prismatic-Spherical) serial chains. In the paper, inverse position, a first-order static influence coefficient...
This paper describes the design, construction, installation and maintenance of an interactive dextrous robot hand exhibit built for display at one of the United Kingdom's largest science and technology museums. The vast majority of dextrous robot hands are used in laboratory environments and so long term reliability is rarely a major design consideration. However, reliability is critically important...
To harvest energy from mechanical vibration with piezoelectric materials, different installations might be adopted according to the vibration conditions of the substrate structures. Surface mount (deformation preferred) and base excitation (movement preferred) are two of the commonly utilized installations. These configurations can be modeled as a general piezoelectric energy harvesting (PEH) device...
Objects grasping and manipulation is a major task for housold and industrial robots. Sensing the objects with 3D laser scanners generating point clouds is a common approach for gathering object information. The abstraction from the raw pointclouds to high level representations is a necessity in the real world domain. This paper describes a method for the approximation of objects from scenes and an...
The human operators may be subjected to hazardous environments or monotony routine work in pick and place type operation. One has to rely on robotic or autonomous systems that have robust and flexible mechanical structure to adapt to the needs of environment in order to remove these hazardous. The gripper is one of a critical component of an industrial robot which is often useful in industrial environments...
This paper presents a platform to implement and evaluate a learning by imitation framework which enables humanoid robots to learn hand gestures from human beings. A marker based system is used to capture human motion data. From this data we extract the shoulder and elbow joint angles, which uniquely characterize a particular hand gesture. The proposed imitation learning framework aims to generalize...
Bridge-type micro-displacement mechanism based on flexible hinge is a classical displacement magnifying mechanism. A flexible branched chain model was established to analyze the characteristics of the mechanism according to its symmetrical structure, thus the formulas for calculating output displacement and displacement amplification ratio of the displacement amplification mechanism were derived....
This paper presents a motion planning approach to coordinating multiple mobile robots in moving along the designed paths. The robots are required to fulfill the formation requirement during the motions subject to the constraints of velocity/acceleration bounds and mutual collision avoidance. The coordination is achieved by properly planning robots' velocities along the paths, which is modeled as a...
In this paper, we describe a coordination framework for weakly centralized mobile robot teams in which the leader is not specified a priori, but it is selected dynamically during the mission depending on the task and the environment. The key to our approach is the integration of both centralized and decentralized coordination strategies at the individual robot level. Each robot relies on the local...
