Before a robot arm can reach into a tight space or pick up a delicate object, the robot needs to know precisely where its hand is. Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute have shown that a camera attached to the robot's hand can rapidly create a 3-D model of its environment and also locate the hand within that 3-D world.
Researchers from KU Leuven have analyzed how a self-driving car’s image-recognition technology reacts to a blurred shape appearing unexpectedly on the road. The team have pointed out that machines, just like human beings, are capable of learning to react to unfamiliar objects.
There are two categories for planning algorithms for teams of robots: decentralized and centralized algorithms. In decentralized algorithms, each robot makes individual decisions based on local observations. In centralized algorithms, a single computer is capable of making decisions for the entire team.
A study on the efficiency of the "REMUS SharkCam" autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), which was conducted in 2014, brought high ratings to Discovery Channel's Shark Week and then went viral on the internet as a result of the video footage of a white shark attacking the SharkCam.
Mo Rastgaar, an associate professor of mechanical engineering at Michigan Technological University, has commenced working on a drone catcher which will have the ability to follow and capture rogue drones that could be a threat to sporting events, air traffic, military installations, and even the White House.
