Operating in environments too harsh or inaccessible for humans is one of the critical roles expected of robots. However, such environments often pose risks to electronic components as well. To overcome this, various approaches have been…
Litter pollution represents a growing environmental problem affecting natural and urban ecosystems worldwide. Waste discarded in public spaces often accumulates in areas that are difficult to access, such as uneven terrains, coastal…
We introduce our concept on the modular wireless robot consisting of three main modules : main unit, data acquisition and data processing modules. We have developed a generic prototype with an integrated control and monitoring system to…
Collaborative robots and space manipulators contain significant joint flexibility. It complicates the control design, compromises the control bandwidth, and limits the tracking accuracy. The imprecise knowledge of the flexible joint…
Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (CDPRs) are a kind of parallel robots that have cables instead of rigid links. Implementing vision-based control on CDPRs leads to a good final accuracy despite modeling errors and other perturbations in the…
There is a trend towards using wireless technologies in networked control systems. However, the adverse properties of the radio channels make it difficult to design and implement control systems in wireless environments. To attack the…
Waterline usually plays as an important visual cue for maritime applications. However, the visual complexity of inland waterline presents a significant challenge for the development of highly efficient computer vision algorithms tailored…
This paper defines a security injection region (SIR) to guarantee reliable operation of water distribution systems (WDS) under extreme conditions. The model of WDSs is highly nonlinear and nonconvex. Understanding the accurate SIRs of WDSs…
A wire-driven parallel robot is a type of robotic system where multiple wires are used to control the movement of a end-effector. The wires are attached to the end-effector and anchored to fixed points on external structures. This…
In fifth generation (5G) wireless cellular networks, millimeter wave spectrum opens room for several potential improvements in throughput, reliability, latency, among other aspects. However, it also brings challenges, such as a higher…
Networking in Wireless Sensor networks is a challenging task due to the lack of resources in the network as well as the frequent changes in network topology. Although lots of research has been done on supporting QoS in the Internet and…
Underwater optical wireless communication (UOWC) is becoming an attractive technology for underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) since it offers high-speed communication links. Although UOWC overcomes the drawbacks of acoustic and…
In tasks such as surveying or monitoring remote regions, an autonomous robot must move while transmitting data over a wireless network with unknown, position-dependent transmission rates. For such a robot, this paper considers the problem…
Device-free human tracking is an essential ingredient for ubiquitous wireless sensing. Recent passive WiFi tracking systems face the challenges of inaccurate separation of dynamic human components and time-consuming estimation of…
Grasping moving objects is a challenging task that requires multiple submodules such as object pose predictor, arm motion planner, etc. Each submodule operates under its own set of meta-parameters. For example, how far the pose predictor…
Networked control systems are closed-loop feedback control systems containing system components that may be distributed geographically in different locations and interconnected via a communication network such as the Internet. The quality…
Autonomous navigation of mobile robots is an essential aspect in use cases such as delivery, assistance or logistics. Although traditional planning methods are well integrated into existing navigation systems, they struggle in highly…
We consider a wireless distributed computing system based on the MapReduce framework, which consists of three phases: \textit{Map}, \textit{Shuffle}, and \textit{Reduce}. The system consists of a set of distributed nodes assigned to compute…
With increasing numbers of mobile robots arriving in real-world applications, more robots coexist in the same space, interact, and possibly collaborate. Methods to provide such systems with system size scalability are known, for example,…
Wireless communication environments are unaware of the ongoing data exchange efforts within them. Moreover, their effect on the communication quality is intractable in all but the simplest cases. The present work proposes a new paradigm,…
