Waste recycling is an important way of saving energy and materials in the production process. In general cases recyclable objects are mixed with unrecyclable objects, which raises a need for identification and classification. This paper…
Addressing the challenge of roadside litter in the United States, which has traditionally relied on costly and ineffective manual cleanup methods, this paper presents an autonomous multi-robot system for highway litter monitoring and…
Modern cities are growing ecosystems that face new challenges due to the increasing population demands. One of the many problems they face nowadays is waste management, which has become a pressing issue requiring new solutions. Swarm…
Urban waste management remains a critical challenge for the development of smart cities. Despite the growing number of litter detection datasets, the problem of monitoring overflowing waste containers, particularly from images captured by…
Robotic picking from cluttered bins is a demanding task, for which Amazon Robotics holds challenges. The 2017 Amazon Robotics Challenge (ARC) required stowing items into a storage system, picking specific items, and packing them into boxes.…
Robots that autonomously manipulate objects within warehouses have the potential to shorten the package delivery time and improve the efficiency of the e-commerce industry. In this paper, we present a robotic system that is capable of both…
General robot grasping in clutter requires the ability to synthesize grasps that work for previously unseen objects and that are also robust to physical interactions, such as collisions with other objects in the scene. In this work, we…
The recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment is an essential tool in allowing for a circular economy, presenting the potential for significant environmental and economic gain. However, traditional material separation…
As water pollution is a serious threat to underwater resources, i.e., underwater plants and species, we focus on protecting the resources by cleaning the non-biodegradable waste from the water. The waste can be recycled for further usage.…
The population of the urban areas is increasing daily, and this migration is causing serious environmental pollution. A larger population is creating pressure on the municipality's waste management and the city corporations of developing…
With advanced AI, while every industry is growing at rocket speed, the smart home industry has not reached the next generation. There is still a huge leap of innovation that needs to happen before we call a home a Smart home. A Smart home…
In this study, it is aimed to develop a deep learning application which detects types of garbage into trash in order to provide recyclability with vision system. Training and testing will be performed with image data consisting of several…
In this paper, a novel robotic grasping system is established to automatically pick up objects in cluttered scenes. A composite robotic hand composed of a suction cup and a gripper is designed for grasping the object stably. The suction cup…
Rapid economic growth gives rise to the urgent demand for a more efficient waste recycling system. This work thereby developed an innovative recycling bin that automatically separates urban waste to increase the recycling rate. We collected…
Tidy-up tasks by service robots in home environments are challenging in robotics applications because they involve various interactions with the environment. In particular, robots are required not only to grasp, move, and release various…
The circular economy paradigm is gaining interest as a solution to reducing both material supply uncertainties and waste generation. One of the main challenges in realizing this paradigm is monitoring materials, since in general, something…
Scheme uses garbage collection for heap memory management. Ideally, garbage collectors should be able to reclaim all dead objects, i.e. objects that will not be used in future. However, garbage collectors collect only those dead objects…
Robot manipulation and grasping mechanisms have received considerable attention in the recent past, leading to the development of wide range of industrial applications. This paper proposes the development of an autonomous robotic grasping…
There is a lot of waste in an industrial environment that could cause harmful effects to both the products and the workers resulting in product defects, itchy eyes or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, etc. While automative cleaning…
An important logistics application of robotics involves manipulators that pick-and-place objects placed in warehouse shelves. A critical aspect of this task corre- sponds to detecting the pose of a known object in the shelf using visual…
