Co-design of forward-control and force-feedback methods for teleoperation of an unmanned aerial vehicle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The core hypothesis of this ongoing research project is that co-designing haptic-feedback and forward-control methods for shared-control teleoperation will enable the operator to more readily understand the shared-control algorithm, better enabling him ...

Mixed Initiative Systems for Human-Swarm Interaction: Opportunities and Challenges

open access: yes, 2018
Human-swarm interaction (HSI) involves a number of human factors impacting human behaviour throughout the interaction. As the technologies used within HSI advance, it is more tempting to increase the level of swarm autonomy within the interaction to ...

ANALYSIS OF RESCUE ROBOTS

open access: yesTECHNICAL SCIENCES AND TECHNOLOGIES, 2019
Urgency of the research. The analysis shows that besides keeping pace in “classic” applications of robots (industrial robots) for manufacturing (engineering) industrial processes, at the same time the applications tend to concentrate mainly in the so-called non-engineering industrial and non-manufacturing (service) industries. Target setting.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

New Method for Localization and Human Being Detection using UWB Technology: Helpful Solution for Rescue Robots

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceTwo challenges for rescue robots are to detect human beings and to have an accurate positioning system. In indoor positioning, GPS receivers cannot be used due to the reflections or attenuation caused by obstacles.

Innovative Processing of Compacted Waste Aluminum Alloy Powders via Controlled Remelting and Solidification

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates an efficient recycling route for out‐of‐spec AlSi10Mg atomized powders through compaction and arc remelting followed by suction casting. By correlating compaction load, cooling rate, and resulting microstructure, we show that intermediate pressures (50–80 kN) and rapid cooling refine dendrites, reduce porosity, and enhance ...

Self-Configurable Centipede-Inspired Rescue Robot

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Drawing from the characteristics of centipedes, such as their low center of gravity, high stability in movement, adaptability to complex terrains, and ability to continue moving even after losing a limb, this paper designs a self-reconfigurable centipede-
