Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is widely used for conceptual design and parametric 3D modeling, but typically requires a high level of expertise from designers. To lower the entry barrier and facilitate early-stage CAD modeling, we present…
Increasingly, industrial robots are being used in production systems. This is because they are highly flexible machines and economically competitive with human labor. The problem is that they are difficult to program. Thus, manufacturing…
Ordinary electric woodworking tools are integrated into a multiple-object-aware augmented framework to assist operators in fabrication tasks. This study presents an advanced evaluation of the developed open-source fabrication software…
An additive manufacturing (AM) process often produces a {\it near-net} shape that closely conforms to the intended design to be manufactured. It sometimes contains additional support structure (also called scaffolding), which has to be…
This paper is concerned with the automation and simulation of pick and place processes in the domain of CFK aircraft production. We introduce a workflow which starts from a CAD construction, extracts relevant data out of it, assigns…
We introduce and study the Joint Task Assistance Planning problem which generalizes prior work on optimizing assistance in robotic collaboration. In this setting, two robots operate over predefined roadmaps, each represented as a graph…
Task and motion planning is a well-established approach for solving long-horizon robot planning problems. However, traditional methods assume that each task-level robot action, or skill, can be reduced to kinematic motion planning. We…
Use of intelligent decision aids can help alleviate the challenges of planning complex operations. We describe integrated algorithms, and a tool capable of translating a high-level concept for a tactical military operation into a fully…
Past work on optimizing fabrication plans given a carpentry design can provide Pareto-optimal plans trading off between material waste, fabrication time, precision, and other considerations. However, when developing fabrication plans,…
In this paper, we focus on the design and verification of timed automata (TA). We introduce a new method for assisting construction and verification of TA models along with a tool implementing the proposed method, i.e., ATAC: Automated…
A new design of an AI assistant that has become increasingly popular is that of an "aggregated assistant" -- realized as an orchestrated composition of several individual skills or agents that can each perform atomic tasks. In this paper,…
Industrial inspection automation in aerospace presents numerous challenges due to the dynamic, information-rich and regulated aspects of the domain. To diagnose the condition of an aircraft component, expert inspectors rely on a significant…
This article provides an introduction to and review of the field of computer-aided molecular design (CAMD). It is intended to be approachable for the absolute beginner as well as useful to the seasoned CAMD practitioner. We begin by…
AI-based design tools are proliferating in professional software to assist engineering and industrial designers in complex manufacturing and design tasks. These tools take on more agentic roles than traditional computer-aided design tools…
Multi Agent Path Finding (MAPF) is critical for coordinating multiple robots in shared environments, yet robust execution of generated plans remains challenging due to operational uncertainties. The Action Dependency Graph (ADG) framework…
Aircraft manufacturing relies on pre-order bookings. The configuration of the to be assembled aircraft is fixed by the design assisted market surveys. The sensitivity of the supply chain to the market conditions, makes, the relationship…
Task And Motion Planning (TAMP) is the problem of finding a solution to an automated planning problem that includes discrete actions executable by low-level continuous motions. This field is gaining increasing interest within the robotics…
The development of automated vehicles and automated driving functions is an exceptionally complex task that requires the integration of numerous, sometimes conflicting interests and various constraints already in the early stages of system…
Computer-Aided Design (CAD) plays a foundational role in modern manufacturing and product development, often requiring designers to modify or build upon existing models. Converting 3D scans into parametric CAD representations--a process…
Over the last years, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have seen significant advancements in sensor capabilities and computational abilities, allowing for efficient autonomous navigation and visual tracking applications. However, the demand…
