Design and Development of an Intelligent Collision Avoidance Platform for a Teleoperated Dual Robotic Arm

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to develop collision avoidance control for a teleoperated dual robotic arm to minimize collisions in human‐robot collaboration. Generally, in the absence of work cell mapping, collision checking in a teleoperated mobile robot is performed based on motor current or torque. However, this method cannot predict collisions

Aerial Localization and Navigation for Surveillance of Large, Featureless, GNSS‐Denied Maritime Environments

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we tackle the problem of surveilling a large area over the sea without access to the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) while searching for the known target vessel. The system utilizes an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) equipped with long‐range radio frequency (LoRa) localization and an RGB camera to detect the target ...

‘Attitude Problems’: Racializing Hierarchies of Affect in Post‐Brown U.S. Science Education

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Attending to the affect of minoritized students now appears crucial to promoting just and dignity‐affirming science education. Yet, elevating affect as an objective of science learning has a history that predates equity reforms. This study explores the politics of scientific uptakes of affect that have long served to mark hierarchical ...

Elevating Configurations of Data and Emotion: Dynamics of Coproduction, Collaboration and Competition

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Creating, visualizing, and critiquing data are integral knowledge‐building practices within science, as well as many other fields. Yet data is often treated as neutral and value‐free, perpetuating narratives of science as a dispassionate discipline where data are merely extracted, repackaged, and distributed anew.

Uncovering Emotion in Youth Digital Civic Participation Around Climate Change: Entanglements of Fear, Despair, and Anger in Civic Practice

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Attention to emotion could offer insight into supporting the science‐informed civic participation of young people. We drew on sociocultural views of emotion, civic participation, and science literacies to examine digital civic media about climate change produced by youth during the 2020 U.S.
