Local Navigation: Obstacle Avoidance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A mobile robot navigating to a goal will encounter obstacles that must be avoided. Obstacle avoidance is presented in the context of wall following: moving around the wall of the obstacle until it no longer prevents access to the goal. Three algorithms are presented: simple wall following which fails in the presence of multiple obstacles, wall ...

Synergistic Compatibilization of CsPbBr3 Perovskites and HfO2 Nanocrystals for Hybrid Sensitized Nanoscintillators

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals are promising scintillators but suffer from reabsorption losses and limited compatibility with high‐Z additives. Hybridization of CsPbBr3 nanocrystals with PbBr2‐passivated HfO2 nanoparticle sensitizers, achieved during or after synthesis, produces stable composites with maintained optical quality, improved ...

Design and experiment of active obstacle avoidance control system for grapevine interplant weeding based on GNSS

open access: yesSmart Agricultural Technology
Traditional passive obstacle avoidance mechanical weeding strategies heavily relied on touch rods, which led to a high crop damage rate and low weeding efficiency during operations.

Discrete-time predictive trajectory tracking control for nonholonomic mobile robots with obstacle avoidance

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2019
This article presents a tracking control approach with obstacle avoidance for a mobile robot. The control law is composed of two parts. The first is a discrete-time model predictive method-based trajectory tracking control law that is derived using an ...

Mesoporous Carbon Thin Films with Large Mesopores as Model Material for Electrochemical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesoporous carbon thin films possessing 70 nm mesopores are prepared on titanium substrates by soft templating of resol resins with a self‐synthesized poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly(hexyl acrylate) block copolymer. A strategy to avoid corrosion of the metal substrate is presented, and the films are extensively characterized in terms of morphology ...

Adaptive 4D‐Printed Vascular Stents With Low‐Temperature‐Activated and Intelligent Deployment

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microarchitected coronary artery stents were fabricated using a polycaprolactone (PCL)‐based shape memory polymer (SMP) composite via projection micro‐stereolithography (PµSL) 4D printing. By incorporating diethyl phthalate (DEP) as a plasticizer, the thermal transition temperature (Ttran) was modulated to about 37°C, enabling rapid and autonomous ...

Toughening β‐Ga2O3 via Mechanically Seeded Dislocations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
β‐Ga2O3 is promising for next‐generation semiconductors but its brittleness limits flexible and high‐precision applications. Here, mechanically seeded dislocations introduced by surface deformation improved damage tolerance in (001) β‐Ga2O3. Nanoindentation and characterization show dislocations suppress cleavage cracks by enabling stable plastic ...
