ChicGrasp: Imitation‐Learning‐Based Customized Dual‐Jaw Gripper Control for Manipulation of Delicate, Irregular Bio‐Products

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Automated poultry processing lines still rely on humans to lift slippery, easily bruised carcasses onto a shackle conveyor. Deformability, anatomical variance, and hygiene rules make conventional suction and scripted motions unreliable. We present ChicGrasp, an end‐to‐end hardware‐software co‐designed imitation learning framework, to offer a ...

The Effect of Methylation and Anti-Oxidant on Discoloration of Weathered Wood Plastic Composites [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Wood and Paper Industries, 2011
As the outdoor application of Wood Plastic Composites (WPCs) become more widespread, the resistance of these products against weathering, particularly ultraviolet (UV) light becomes more important. When WPCs are exposed to outdoor ultraviolet light, rain,
