In this work an introduction to intelligent electric vehicle is presented. Design and development of intelligent vehicle for intelligent behavior quick output, cost is very cheap and it avoided the hurdle in his way so it is called safe intelligent electric vehicle. An introduction of intelligent vehicle that how it changes his performances according to the environment that can adapt the change as...
This paper presents recent results obtained with a visual method allowing absolute position measurements at nanoscale. Based on the direct phase analysis of pseudo-periodic patterns, this approach enabled fast measurements of position with large range-to-resolution ratios. Applications include microrobotic manipulators calibration and visual servoing but also microforce measurement by using a compliant...
This paper presents an application for remote control of a mobile robot with XBEE wireless communication. The control of the mobile robot is realized by a PC within a software interface or by using a user mobile remote control. The application is implemented in LabVIEW and can be used for robot control and robot movement tracking.
In this paper we present the design of a mobile system for ethanol leak localization in the environment with wireless transmission to a computer. The system is composed of two operating modules: a communication module that transmits and receives information about the localization in a full-duplex wireless manner through a pair of transceivers, and a motion module that has an ultrasonic displacement...
The field of Robotics has been around for over half a century. Historically robots have been mostly used for industrial manufacturing applications, although emerging areas in medical, space, security, military, entertainment, and service applications are gaining momentum in the recent years. In the academic community also there have been growing efforts at many K-12 schools to motivate students in...
In camera sensor networks (CSNs), full view coverage, in which any direction of any point in the operational region is covered by at least one camera sensor, is of great significance since image shot at the frontal viewpoint considerably increases the possibility to recognize the object. However, finding the critical condition to achieve full view coverage in mobile heterogeneous CSNs remains an open...
In this paper we deal with a companion that is capable of migration to variety of embodiments in order to fulfil its tasks (including the social one) and to achieve its goals. It is important that identity of a companion in each utilised embodiment can be recognised by the user despite of technological constraints and own capabilities of a robotic platform. We are interested in the case when one companion...
On the problem of wireless sensor network localization, few true three-dimensional (3D) methods have been developed to satisfy the practical needs. In this work we propose a range-based 3D localization algorithm that is accurate, anchor-free, scalable and physical position available. A novel combination of distance and direction measurement technique is introduced to estimate ranges between neighbors...
Multimodal human-computer interface provides a connection between a user and a computer in a natural manner. In order to determine position of the user and his speech queries, the robot uses a set of web-cameras, microphone array and technologies for distant speech recognition and face tracking. There are some methods for interaction between users and computers, such as manual entry, verbal dialog,...
This paper describes the prototype design and development of a tele-operated robotic system. The robotic system consists of a robotic arm operating on top of a mobile base system. The robot is constructed using cheap and easily obtainable materials and serves as a platform to test and investigate control techniques and mechanical designs. The robot is controlled via an onboard computer which communicates...
A number of mobile manipulators have been custom engineered and built in labs worldwide. Mobile manipulators could become much more prevalent if they were assembled from commercially available components instead of being locally engineered and built. In this paper, we describe some tests and the integration steps in putting together power source, computers, and distributed software systems for integrating...
The advent of more portable and affordable sensing devices has facilitated the study of rehabilitation robotics. Critical to the further development of therapies and interventions are low-cost, easy-to-use devices that can be applied in clinical and home care settings. In this paper, we present a low-cost motion capture system that relies on the opensource Player/Stage software development environment,...
The author describes the experience of designing and implementation of a mobile robotic platform. In the future, the platform will be used in various robotics and cybernetics research projects, including implementation of a control system that utilizes FPGA-based devices and participation in robotics competitions: Robots Olimpiad, Mobile Robots Festival, and possibly Eurobot.
People are paying more and more attention to mobile sensor network now. Establishment of its model is conducive to in-depth analysis of the system. Based on the located information and graph theory, a distributed sensor network model is introduced. Delaunay triangulation used to describe nodes and the relationship between them and their transmission and fusion of information between nodes. And the...
The field of electronic noses and gas sensing has been developing rapidly since the introduction of the silicon based sensors. There are numerous systems that can detect and indicate the level of a specific gas. We introduce here a system that is low power, small and cheap enough to be used in mobile robotic platforms while still being accurate and reliable enough for confident use. The design is...
A principal factor in sensor network design is energy efficiency. In this work, we propose to extend the lifetime of sensor networks using appropriate choice of sensor node distribution. The key idea of our scheme is to deploy more nodes in areas of extensive energy usage. Using this scheme of sensor node distribution, we use probabilistic angular routing to route data packets from the sensor nodes...
Currently, robots are being used as teaching tools and can be found in K-12 and college classrooms. The primary appeal associated with employing robots is that they tend to capture the attention of the target audience and thereby facilitate the learning process. While there are numerous robotic kits on the market today, few can be used to teach both high-level concepts in computer science and engineering...
