Active Sensing System with In Situ Adjustable Sensor Morphology
BACKGROUND Despite the widespread use of sensors in engineering systems like robots and automation systems, the common paradigm is to have fixed sensor morphology tailored to fulfill a specific application. On the other hand, robotic systems are expected to operate in ever more uncertain environments. In order to cope with the challenge, it is worthy of note that biological systems show the imp...
متن کاملGenetic Algorithm for Sensor Scheduling with Adjustable Sensing Range
Abstract— Sensing, processing and communication can consume energy in wireless sensor network. The lifetime of wireless sensor network can be extended by efficient power management. One efficient method to extend the network lifetime is to divide the set of all deployed sensors into non disjoint subsets or sensor covers so that each sensor cover can monitor the entire targets. Adjusting the sen...
متن کاملReview of In-situ Fabrication Methods of Piezoelectric Wafer Active Sensor for Sensing and Actuation Applications
Structural health monitoring (SHM) is important for reducing maintenance costs while increasing safety and reliability. Piezoelectric wafer active sensors (PWAS) used in SHM applications are able to detect structural damage using Lamb waves. PWAS are small, lightweight, unobtrusive, and inexpensive. PWAS achieve direct transduction between electric and elastic wave energies. PWAS are essential ...
متن کاملActive Sensing in Sensor–based Motion Planning with Dynamics
This paper studies active sensing strategies for an autonomous wheeled mobile robot moving on a flat surface among unknown static obstacles. The robot is defined by its geometry, its dynamic motion equations and a control policy. The latter comes from a path planning algorithm which produces changing intermediate goal coordinates to pursue, and motoring signals based on local information. We wa...
متن کاملExact and heuristic methods to maximize network lifetime in wireless sensor networks with adjustable sensing ranges
Wireless sensor networks involve many different real-world contexts, such as monitoring and control tasks for traffic, surveillance, military and environmental applications, among others. Usually, these applications consider the use of a large number of low-cost sensing devices to monitor the activities occurring in a certain set of target locations. We want to individuate a set of covers (that...
