Automated Lawn Maintenance: An Agronomic and Operational Review of Turf Health, Biodiversity, and Field Performance

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grass mowing is one of the most resource‐consuming activities in green maintenance, whether in private areas such as home gardens or in public spaces like urban parks. In recent years, concerns related to climate change, human health, and sustainability have become increasingly prominent in green maintenance, leading manufacturers and industry

Multisensor Data Fusion for Robust Pose Estimation of a Six-Legged Walking Robot

, 2011
For autonomous navigation tasks it is important that the robot always has a good estimate of its current pose with respect to its starting position and - in terms of orientation - with respect to the gravity vector.

Outracing a National Level Model Racing Car Champion: A Hybrid Model‐Based Data‐Driven Approach

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper discusses lap time optimization, focusing on a single lap without considering opponents in autonomous racing. The paper presents a control and optimization architecture composed of a model‐based low level controller and a higher level iterative learning algorithm with the goal of obtaining the fastest qualifying lap in autonomous ...

Transformer IMU Calibrator: Dynamic On-body IMU Calibration for Inertial Motion Capture

ACM Transactions on Graphics
In this paper, we propose a novel dynamic calibration method for sparse inertial motion capture systems, which is the first to break the restrictive absolute static assumption in IMU calibration, i.e., the coordinate drift R G ...

Linear System Identification and Control of a Low‐Cost High‐Performance Omnidirectional Marine Surface Vehicle for Swarming Applications

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.

Design and Testing of a Minimal Configuration Underwater Micro‐Glider: Automating Lake and Reservoir Monitoring

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly
