Automated segmentation of medical images for 3D printing – voxel centric processing of spatially textured voxels

Virtual and Physical Prototyping
Traditional medical segmentation and current 3D modelling techniques produce tissue models that capture only surface topology which lacks the volumetric material properties to accurately represent the internal structure.

Supporting Focus and Context Awareness in 3D Modelling Tasks Using Multi-Layered Displays [PDF]

, 2014
Most 3D modelling software have been developed for conventional 2D displays, and as such, lack support for true depth perception. This contributes to making polygonal 3D modelling tasks challenging, particularly when models are complex and consist of a ...

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

UAV Path Planning via Semantic Segmentation of 3D Reality Mesh Models

Drones
Traditional unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) path planning methods for image-based 3D reconstruction often rely solely on geometric information from initial models, resulting in redundant data acquisition in non-architectural areas.

Nonreciprocal Swarmalators With Reconfigurable and Controllable Formations for Robot Collectives

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Nonreciprocal swarmalator interactions are enabled through control barrier functions to transform self‐organizing robot collectives into reconfigurable, constraint‐aware systems. Complex two‐ and three‐dimensional shapes, continuous morphing, obstacle‐aware navigation, collective splitting, and object transport emerge from modulating agent‐level ...
