robotics/7129c919_6891.txt | We showed that the minimum-time approach not only simplifies task specification but can also surprisingly lead to better policies, even when assessed using metrics designed for the guiding reward approach, as demonstrated through empirical evidence in simulation and real robots. |
robotics/1211_fe650460e2acb790_353.txt | Future space robotics tasks require manipulators of significant dexterity, achievable through kinematic redundancy and modular reconfigurability, but with a corresponding complexity of motion planning. Existing research aims for full autonomy and completeness, at the expense of efficiency, generality or even user frien... |

robotics/854_bfbc7fe81559e716_100.txt | Earlier this week, we practiced our presentation with our new SEM principal, and did a pretty decent run. We still had issues, i.e. running overtime & switching off between parts, but it still impressed our principal. However, we wanted to do better. We had a brainstorming sesssion and talked with past judges, and foun... |
robotics/a3c06f3a_8088.txt | These matrices produce the desired effect only if they are used to premultiply column vectors , and (since in general matrix multiplication is not commutative ) only if they are applied in the specified order (see Ambiguities for more details). The order of rotation operations is from right to left; the matrix adjacent... |
robotics/14178_d4eee9ddd5e6add2_164.txt | tion we provide only the solution to the two-frame structure from motion problem. For an in-depth study of structure from motion, we refer the reader to [21, 22, 29, 36, 53]. Observe that in structure-from-motion, the images do not need to be precalibrated. This allows SfM to work in challenging situations, where, for ... |
robotics/1266_e26caa74eb27f4da_239.txt | We propose a new task and model for dense video object captioning -- detecting, tracking and captioning trajectories of objects in a video. This task unifies spatial and temporal localization in video, whilst also requiring fine-grained visual understanding that is best described by natural language. We propose a unifi... |

Issues of convergence of this series to the right element of the Lie algebra are here swept under the carpet. Convergence is guaranteed when X Y lt; log 2 and Z lt; log 2 . If these conditions are not fulfilled, the se... |
robotics/1202_d14a34391eb82ba2_21.txt | Up top, the Cascade is revealing, resolving and terrifically well-extended. Lower-treble has slight emphasis resulting in a more aggressive presentation of foreground detailing and nicely crisp, if thin instrumentation. Using the included filters can have quite a profound impact here, attenuating peaks to produce a mor... |
robotics/21338_ffcd46c10cd05485_385.txt | This paper investigates the dynamics and control of a quadcopter using the Model Predictive Control (MPC) approach. The dynamic model is of high fidelity and nonlinear, with six degrees of freedom that include disturbances and model uncertainties. The control approach is developed based on MPC to track different refere... |
robotics/854_bfbc7fe81559e716_314.txt | In an earlier post, we went over the plans for a new mobile learning lab. To clarify, the Mobile Tech xPansion program is owned by Big Thought, a non profit organization dedicated to education, but its outreach events are executed by Team 6832 Iron Reign. During these events, our team travels to low-income areas around... |
robotics/261_c9f89eb74b78bf36_5.txt | Although the L6234 application notes suggest that the PWM for controlling motor speed be applied to the IN pins, I decided to do it on the EN pins because, at the time, I thought it would be "weird" to have the upper and lower transistors of a phase being turned on alternately. In fact, there appears to be nothing wron... |
robotics/21338_ffcd46c10cd05485_90.txt | Early studies that categorized odontocete pulsed sounds had few means of discriminating signals used for biosonar-based foraging from those used for communication. This capability to identify the function of sounds is important for understanding and interpreting behavior; it is also essential for monitoring and mitigat... |

robotics/854_bfbc7fe81559e716_529.txt | Instead of using a grip wheel to launch rings we went with the approach to make a custom flywheel. The key concept of a flywheel is to maximize rotational inertia. This is done by putting as much mass towards the edge of the wheel as possible. To do this, a ring of ninjaflex was designed, from there, 5mm flaps were add... |
