Toward obstacle-specific morphology for a reconfigurable tiling robot
Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Humanized Computing, 2021This paper proposes a novel method based on Fuzzy Logic Systems (FLSs) optimized to maximize the area coverage of a tiling robot by reconfiguring per an obstacle considering the “Infi” concept. The consideration of an infinite number of reconfigurable shapes by a tiling robot is defined as the “Infi” concept.

A Brief Review on Robotic Floor-Tiling
IECON 2018 - 44th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2018There are large quantities of tiles to be consumed every year all over the world. Developing construction robot to replace the worker to accomplish the floor-tiling task will playa key role in future construction automation. In this paper, a brief review on the research progress of the robotic floor-tiling is presented. Firstly, several kinds of manual

Robotic tile placement through adaptive control strategies
Fifth International Conference on Advanced Robotics 'Robots in Unstructured Environments, 1991The authors investigate the use of a robot manipulator for the execution of a construction task traditionally carried out by human operators, such the placing of ceramic tiles on a surface. The motivations for a robotic approach to this field are discussed, and the specific subtask identified for investigation is described.

Htetran – A Polyabolo Inspired Self Reconfigurable Tiling Robot
2019 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS), 2019Research focuses on robots related to area coverage applications such as cleaning, painting, demining, lawn moving, and inspection is gaining significant momentum in recent years. The majority of such research platforms faces significant performance issues while accessing narrow and constrained spaces due to their fixed morphology. To this end, we have

Modular robotic tiles: experiments for children with autism
Artificial Life and Robotics, 2009We developed a modular robotic tile and a system composed of a number of these modular robotic tiles. The system composed of the modular robotic tiles engages the user in physical activities, e.g., physiotherapy, sports, fitness, and entertainment.

Towards on-site autonomous robotic floor tiling of mosaics
2014 14th International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS 2014), 2014Humanoid robots have been a central research topic of robotics for the last 30 years. However, it has not been until the last decade that humanoids became a viable commercial product. While not full scale, robots such as NAO provide a large range of motion with multiple sensors for the environment.

Position detection of an autonomous robot by aperiodic tilings
IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference Sensing, Processing, Networking. IMTC Proceedings, 2002We propose an aperiodic tiling suitable for a floor pattern to provide an autonomous robot with position information. The most direct approach to this problem would be to equip the robot with an optical sensor to detect and count its traversals across the lines of a rectangular grid painted on the floor.

3-Dimensional Tiling for Distributed Assembly by Robot Teams
2013We consider the assembly of a three dimensional (3D) structure by a team of heterogeneous robots capable of online sensing and error correction during the assembly process. The automated assembly problem is posed as a general 3D tiling problem where the assembly components/tiles consist of various shapes and sizes.

Adaptive Visual Control of a Robot Arm Using Tiled Space
1988Suppose that we have a robot consisting of an arm with several joints and a hand. There is also an object, or target, which we want the hand to locate. We have a visual subsystem consisting of one or more cameras whose field of view contains both the hand and the target.
