1D Printing of Recyclable Robots

1D Printing of Recyclable Robots

Recent advances in 3D printing are revolutionizing manufacturing, enabling the fabrication of structures with unprecedented complexity and functionality. Yet biological systems are able to fabricate systems with far greater complexity using a process that involves assembling and folding a linear string. Here, we demonstrate a 1D printing system that uses an approach inspired by the ribosome to ...

Omnidirectional visual control of mobile robots based on the 1D trifocal tensor

The precise positioning of robotic systems is of great interest particularly in mobile robots. In this context, the use of omnidirectional vision provides many advantages thanks to its wide field of view. This paper presents an image-based visual control to drive a mobile robot to a desired location, which is specified by a target image previously acquired. It exploits the properties of omnidir...

What Materials Are Recyclable?

municipal solid waste. Business and industry operations generate recyclable materials in many areas, such as offices, cafeterias, supply stores, shipping or warehouse units, print shops, and production areas. Many companies are already enthusiastically collecting recyclables in high-profile programs, while others are just beginning. Collecting recyclables costs money, but it also saves money by...

Navigation Techniques of Mobile Robots In Greenhouses

With the continuous development of the industrialization process, the countries all over the world gradually appeared lack of agricultural labor force and aging phenomenon, which was especially prominent in developed countries. However the agricultural robot with high operating efficiency, high qualities of work will play an increasingly important role in future agricultural production. Robot n...
