Hybrid Navigation Acceptability and Safety
Proceedings of the AAAI Symposium SeriesAutonomous vessels have emerged as a prominent and accepted solution, particularly in the naval defence sector. However, achieving full autonomy for marine vessels demands the development of robust and reliable control and guidance systems that can handle various encounters with manned and unmanned vessels while operating effectively under diverse ...

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

Risk Assessment of Warship (Automatic) Navigation Plan Based on SVM
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 The automatic control of naval vessels is based on the navigational plan, and the navigational safety depends on the scientific nature of the plan, so the risk assessment of the navigational plan is very important.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

Quantifying Safety of Laser-Based Navigation
IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, 2019 In this paper, a new safety risk evaluation method is developed, simulated, and tested for laser-based navigation algorithms using feature extraction (FE) and data association (DA). First, at FE, we establish a probabilistic measure of separation between features to quantify the sensor's ability to distinguish landmarks.
