Combined Grid and Feature-Based Occupancy Map Building in Large Outdoor Environments
, 2007 This paper presents an approach to create three-dimensional occupancy maps from an aerial vehicle with stereo vision. The main idea is to create an occupancy grid that moves along with the vehicle and extract features into a fixed global map.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Experiments and thermophysical simulations were conducted to investigate the electron beam powder bed fusion electron beam (PBF‐EB/M) process for the γ′‐strengthened nickel‐based superalloy Inconel 738LC. The results demonstrate the impact of process‐induced microstructural variations on high‐temperature mechanical behavior, providing a basis for ...

Toward obstacle avoidance in intermittent dynamical environments
, 2005 In this paper we discuss a robotic task requiring dynamical safety in the face of an intermittent environment. We define and offer examples of this notion. We then construct a dynamically safe composite controller from dynamically safe constituents, and present empirical evidence of its effectiveness.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This paper presents a digital microfluidics‐based technique for transferring and reconfiguring soft nanomembranes. Laser‐machined nanothin membranes are picked up, transported, and aligned via tailored surface tension and the actuation of water droplets, enabling the development of flexible electronics, the integration of functional materials on 3D ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Mesoblends consist of a nanostructured polymer into which a second polymer is imbibed with a selective solvent. In this work, a solvent‐templatable pentablock terpolymer possessing a sulfonated midblock is modified with a hydrophilic polymer that is photocrosslinked in situ, yielding a hierarchical binetwork.

Designed Lewis Acid–Base Passivation for High Performance Perovskite Solar Cells
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Silicon's high cost and long energy payback time remain major barriers to the global expansion of solar power. In contrast, metal–halide perovskites offer abundant, solution‐processable absorbers, and have achieved efficiencies of 25%–30%, positioning them as strong competitors to silicon.

A Novel Collision Avoidance Logic for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Using Real-Time Trajectory Planning [PDF]
, 2014 An effective collision avoidance logic should prevent collision without excessive alerting. This requirement would be even more stringent for an automatic collision avoidance logic, which is probably required by Unmanned Aerial Vehicles to mitigate ...
