3D Scene Understanding of Static and Dynamic Indoor Environments

, 2022
This thesis explores long-term 3D scene understanding. We release a large-scale dataset of naturally changing indoor scenes that also features 3D scene graphs. Since analyzing long-term changes requires higher-level knowledge, methods for 3D semantic and instance segmentation are proposed and well-known 2D tasks such as scene graph prediction are ...

Hierarchical Language Models for Semantic Navigation and Manipulation in an Aerial‐Ground Robotic System

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A hierarchical multimodal framework coupling a large language model for task decomposition and semantic mapping with a fine‐tuned vision‐language model for semantic perception, enhanced by GridMask, is presented. An aerial‐ground robot team exploits the semantic map for global and local planning.

Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

Tendon‐Driven Compliant Wheel‐Less Snake Robot for Undulatory Locomotion Using Conformable Ground Contacts

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a tendon‐driven compliant snake robot that uses globally applied vertical bending and axial twisting along its body to enable various gaits. Body deflection from compliance and weight passively generates the ground contact patterns required for locomotion.
