In this paper we present work towards the benchmarking of mobile manipulation algorithms. We review the current state-of-the art in mobile manipulation and analyze the most prominent algorithms concerning common structures and sub-components. We propose and implement harmonized interfaces for those components, building upon existing software frameworks and libraries. The foundation on the same subcomponents...
The paper presents the work for development of a telematics application for robotics field. First, it was developed a client-server application and then a Web based application. A range of remote experiments with a mobile robot with particular emphasis on motor control, obstacle avoidance, image processing and their application to trajectory control can be done by the users. The users learn the microcontroller...
In this paper, we introduce a new robot "wall" surface, featuring a multiple folding panel structure. The wall forms part of AWE, a novel 'Animated Work Environment", which seeks to introduce robotics at the architectural scale to modify environments in real time to the changing needs and moods of their occupants. The panels of the AWE wall will feature embedded IT and adapt to the...
NASA's Mars exploration rovers' (MER) onboard mobility flight software was designed to provide robust and flexible operation. The MER vehicles can be commanded directly, or given autonomous control over multiple aspects of mobility: which motions to drive, measurement of actual motion, terrain interpretation, even the selection of targets of interest (although this mode remains largely underused)...
Comprehension of concepts and algorithms involved in the robotics field can be improved through the use of an interactive visualization tool. In this paper we present an interactive tool for visualizing and editing motion planning environments, problem instances, and their solutions. Teachers can take advantage of visualization tools to help their students to better understand motion planning and...
