This paper presents the control system for our novel hyper-redundant chain robot system “3D-Trunk” demonstrating an operational principle that is much different from traditional solutions. Its main features are that all the joints are passive, state controllable and share common inputs introduced by wire-driven control. For this unique design, a force-oriented method is employed to control the driving...

Recently, there has been a marked increase in using machine learning techniques for object detection because of its immunity to noise and variations in backgrounds. SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) is an approach to mapping the environment in which the robot moves, by using landmarks, much like the human visual system. The application of a robust object detection system can be extended...
Evolutionary algorithms are very common techniques used in computational intelligence and robotics field applications. Some algorithms need a large amount of memory and processing power, making them difficult to implement into embedded systems. In this work a profile-based approach is proposed and applied in an evolutionary algorithm with some characteristics that allow it's use on embedded systems...
