Enhanced STag Marker System: Materials and Methods for Flexible Robot Localisation

open access: yesMachines
Accurate localisation is key for the autonomy of mobile robots. Fiducial localisation utilises relative positions of markers physically deployed across an environment to determine a localisation estimate for a robot.

Resource Saving Approach of Visual Tracking Fiducial Marker Recognition for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

open access: yesAdvances in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, 2015
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) tracking fiducial marker is a challenging problem, because of camera system vibration, which causes visible frame-to-frame jitter in the airborne videos and unclear marker vision.

Microscale Mapping of Fiber Strain and Damage in Composite Wrinkled Laminates Using Computed Tomography Assisted Wide‐Angle X‐Ray Scattering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study combines full‐field tomography with diffraction mapping to quantify radial (ε002$\varepsilon _{002}$) and axial (ε100$\varepsilon _{100}$) lattice strain in wrinkled carbon‐fiber specimens for the first time. Radial microstrain gradients (−14.5 µεMPa$\varepsilon \mathrm{MPa}$−1) are found to signal damage‐prone zones ahead of failure, which ...

Cyclic Mechanical Loading of Cardiomyocytes via Pressure‐Driven Non‐Planar Membrane Deformation in a Bioreactor System

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this research article, Mansoor and coworkers present a novel device that applies controlled mechanical stimuli to cardiomyocytes using pressure‐driven membrane deformation. By exposing cells to physiologically and pathologically relevant loading conditions, the platform reproduces distinct structural, functional and molecular responses associated ...

Ethical Precision in Nanoscale Brain Interfacing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
As brain interfaces approach the nanoscale, precision no longer only measures—it knows, predicts, and potentially reshapes the mind. This work argues that traditional ethics fails under such conditions and proposes a shift toward continuous, operation‐based governance using the recovery–discovery framework to track, constrain, and responsibly steer ...

A Region Adjacency Tree Approach to the Detection and Design of Fiducials.

open access: yes, 2003
We report a topological approach to fiducial recognition for real-time applications. Independence from geometry makes the system tolerant to severe distortion, and allows encoding of extra information. The method is based on region adjacency trees. After

Prostate fiducial marker detection with the use of multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging

open access: yesPhysics and Imaging in Radiation Oncology, 2017
Background and purpose: The introduction of a magnetic resonance (MR)-only workflow in radiotherapy requires that fiducial markers, used for position verification, can be detected on MR images.

Vascularized Liver‐on‐a‐Microsphere Reveals Alanine‐Glucose Metabolism‐Driven Regulation of Liver Function and Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A vascularized liver‐on‐a‐microsphere system is developed to recreate lobule‐like cellular organization and endothelial barrier function within compartmentalized hydrogel particles. The platform enhances hepatic performance and reveals alanine‐glucose cycle activation linked to improved detoxification capacity, offering a high‐throughput microscale ...

Fiducial-aided robust positioning of optical freeform surfaces

open access: yes, 2018
Form characterization of a machined optical freeform surface demands for well alignment of the sampled measured data points on the machined surface and they are compared with the designed geometry of the surface through positioning.

Optimization of a newly defined target volume in fiducial marker-based dynamic tumor-tracking radiotherapy

open access: yesPhysics and Imaging in Radiation Oncology, 2017
Background and purpose: To optimize the selection of fiducial markers used to determine the “internal target volume for tracking” (ITVtracking) for fiducial marker-based dynamic tumor-tracking (DTT) radiotherapy for lung tumors, with four-dimensional 320-
