Systematic Exploration of 3D Concrete Printing Parameters for Conformal Printing on Sloped Surfaces

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A conformal slicing algorithm is developed for robotic 3D concrete printing (3DCP) on sloped surfaces as a first step toward printing slab‐on‐grade foundations on uneven terrain. Systematic experiments quantify the effects of nozzle speed, extrusion rate, and toolpath direction on filament dimension and stability.

Improvements in accuracy of single camera terrain classification [PDF]

2013 16th International Conference on Advanced Robotics (ICAR), 2013
Autonomous terrain classification is an important requirement for robotic applications for the outdoor and more so for off-road systems. Different technique have been developed in recent years mainly relying on either color features or on texture-based features for classification. We present an approach which combines the two approaches and delivers an

WorMa: An Undulatory Robot With Center of Mass Regulation via Internal Fluid Redistribution for Amphibious Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

Toward Mechanical Intelligence in Robotics

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robots can use their physical bodies to perform functions usually assigned to electronic sensors and controllers. This perspective defines mechanical intelligence through three core operations: filtering inputs, routing mechanical signals, and switching between states.
