This paper presents a vision based robotic system to handle the picking problem involved in automatic express package dispatching. By utilizing two RealSense RGB-D cameras and one UR10 industrial robot, package dispatching task which is…

Leak detection and water quality monitoring are requirements and challenging tasks in Water Distribution Systems (WDS). In-line robots are designed for this aim. In our previous work, we designed an in-pipe robot [1]. In this research, we…

Person-tracking robots have many applications, such as in security, elderly care, and socializing robots. Such a task is particularly challenging when the person is moving in a Uniform crowd. Also, despite significant progress of trackers…

We investigate how robotic camera systems can offer new capabilities to computer-supported cooperative work through the design, development, and evaluation of a prototype system called Periscope. With Periscope, a local worker completes…

Visual slam technology is one of the key technologies for robot to explore unknown environment independently. Accurate estimation of camera pose based on visual sensor is the basis of autonomous navigation and positioning. However, most…

Due to real-world dynamics and hardware uncertainty, robots inevitably fail in task executions, resulting in undesired or even dangerous executions. In order to avoid failures and improve robot performance, it is critical to identify and…

Humans have rich understanding of liquid containers and their contents; for example, we can effortlessly pour water from a pitcher to a cup. Doing so requires estimating the volume of the cup, approximating the amount of water in the…

The project we embarked on is making an electronic robot that can deliver a package along a set route through infrared sensors. It uses the infrared sensors to determine if the path it is following is correct or if it is off course. This is…

Depth sensing is an essential technology in robotics and many other fields. Many depth sensing (or RGB-D) cameras are available on the market and selecting the best one for your application can be challenging. In this work, we tested four…

Object pose estimation underwater allows an autonomous system to perform tracking and intervention tasks. Nonetheless, underwater target pose estimation is remarkably challenging due to, among many factors, limited visibility, light…

Robotic-assisted surgeries benefit both surgeons and patients, however, surgeons frequently need to adjust the endoscopic camera to achieve good viewpoints. Simultaneously controlling the camera and the surgical instruments is impossible,…

Machine vision and image processing are often used with sensors for situation awareness in autonomous systems, from industrial robots to self-driving cars. The 3D depth sensors, such as LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), Radar, are great…

The ability to open a door is essential for robots to perform home-serving and rescuing tasks. A substantial problem is to obtain the necessary parameters such as the width of the door and the length of the handle. Many researchers utilize…

Surface cracks in infrastructure can lead to severe deterioration and expensive maintenance if not efficiently repaired. Manual repair methods are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and imprecise. While advancements in robotic perception and…

When arranging objects with robotic arms, the quality of the end result strongly depends on the achievable placement accuracy. However, even the most advanced robotic systems are prone to positioning errors that can occur at different steps…

As the world population is expected to reach 10 billion by 2050, our agricultural production system needs to double its productivity despite a decline of human workforce in the agricultural sector. Autonomous robotic systems are one…

We address the problem of tracking the 6-DoF pose of an object while it is being manipulated by a human or a robot. We use a dynamic Bayesian network to perform inference and compute a posterior distribution over the current object pose.…

Transparent objects are common in day-to-day life and hence find many applications that require robot grasping. Many solutions toward object grasping exist for non-transparent objects. However, due to the unique visual properties of…

Wireless tags are increasingly used to track and identify common items of interest such as retail goods, food, medicine, clothing, books, documents, keys, equipment, and more. At the same time, there is a need for labelled visual data…

Robotic wire arc additive manufacturing has been widely adopted due to its high deposition rates and large print volume relative to other metal additive manufacturing processes. For complex geometries, printing with variable height within…
