Multilevel Embedding and Dropout for Improved 3D Object Detection in Autonomous Driving Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A plug‐in framework for RoI‐based 3D object detectors exploits previously untapped multi‐level information within RoI features. Its novel multi‐level embedding and dropout strategy enables the detection head to generate predictions at different feature levels.

User contributions and public extension delivery modes: implications for financial sustainability of extension in South Africa

open access: yes, 2014
Extension channels form the bridge that extension agents use to communicate messages to recipients. The high recurrent costs faced by the public extension service constraint the number of visits farmers receive.

Numerical Modeling of Photothermal Self‐Excited Composite Oscillators

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We present a numerical framework for simulating photothermal self‐excited oscillations. The driving mechanism is elucidated by highlighting the roles of inertia and overshoot, as well as the phase lag between the thermal moment and the oscillation angle, which together construct the feedback loop between the system state and the environmental stimulus.

Strengthening Pluralistic Agricultural Information Delivery Systems in India [PDF]

open access: yes
The study on agricultural information flow has revealed that only 40 per cent farm households access information from one or the other source. The popular information sources among farmers have been reported to be fellow progressive farmers and input ...

Durability of Soft Pneumatic Actuators: A Review and Benchmarking Protocol

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Lack of durability is a key challenge hindering the broad scale adoption of soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) in automation industries. This review provides a comprehensive overview of existing research on SPA durability, introduces a standardized durability benchmarking protocol to consolidate the testing of SPAs, and outlines promising directions for ...

Multimodal Human–Robot Interaction Using Human Pose Estimation and Local Large Language Models

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A multimodal human–robot interaction framework integrates human pose estimation (HPE) and a large language model (LLM) for gesture‐ and voice‐based robot control. Speech‐to‐text (STT) enables voice command interpretation, while a safety‐aware arbitration mechanism prioritizes gesture input for rapid intervention.

Mutual Adaptation and Influence: Review of Latent Dynamics Models in Human–Robot Interaction

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robots are becoming better teammates by learning hidden patterns in how people act. This review covers how state‐of‐the‐art approaches leverage these patterns to help robots not only react but also anticipate and guide cooperation. Here, we synthesize a unifying framework for these approaches, classify and review existing works, and highlight key ...

MicroRoboScope: A Portable and Integrated Mechatronic Platform for Magnetic and Acoustic Microrobotic Experimentation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents the MicroRoboScope, a highly integrated, compact, and portable microrobotic experimentation platform combining electromagnetic and acoustic actuation with real‐time visual feedback into a single, end‐to‐end device. The system enables closed‐loop control and tracking algorithm experimentation within an accessible and unified hardware ...
