A Shape Memory Alloy-Actuated Bio-inspired Mesoscale Jumping Robot
Jumping may be considered to be quite a useful means of mobile robot locomotion, but acquiring a stable landing has been a difficult problem. This paper reports on the design, analysis, simulation and experiments of a mesoscale jumping robot that is capable of stable landing. A jumping mechanism inspired by jumping insects is introduced and an actuation scheme using only on...
متن کاملBio-Inspired Generalized Global Shape Approach for Writer Identification
Writer identification is one of the areas in pattern recognition that attract many researchers to work in, particularly in forensic and biometric application, where the writing style can be used as biometric features for authenticating an identity. The challenging task in writer identification is the extraction of unique features, in which the individualistic of such handwriting styles can be a...
متن کاملA bio-inspired, high-authority actuator for shape morphing structures
Lightweight structures capable of changing their shape on demand are of interest for a number of applications, including aerospace, power generation, and undersea vehicles. This paper describes a bioinspired cellular metal vertebrate structure which relies on shape memory alloy (SMA) faces to achieve fully reversing shape change. The resulting vertebrate actuators can be combined with flexible ...
متن کاملShape Detection by Packing Contours
SHAPE DETECTION BY PACKING CONTOURS Qihui Zhu Jianbo Shi Humans have an amazing ability to localize and recognize object shapes from natural images with various complexities, such as low contrast, overwhelming background clutter, large shape deformation and signicant occlusion. We typically recognize object shape as a whole the entire geometric conguration of image tokens and the context they a...
متن کاملExperimental study of the shape and motion of flattened drops in a Hele-Shaw Cell
> The motion and shape of a flattened drop and bubble through another continuous liquid phase (conveying phase) are investigated experimentally, using a narrow gap HeleShaw cell. Seven different liquid-liqu...
