Depth-Enhanced Mobile Robot Teleguide based on Laser Images

3D stereoscopic visualization may provide a user with higher comprehension of remote environment in teleoperation when compared to 2D viewing. Works in the literature have addressed the contribution of stereo vision to improve perception of some depth cues often for abstract tasks, and it is hard to find contributions specifically addressing mobile robot teleguide. The authors of this paper hav...

Sensor Guided Laser Welding Robot

In order to obtain a good result in the laser welding process, the laser welding technology for manufacturing an automobile body is studied in this research. The robot, the seam tracking system, and CW Nd:YAG laser are used for the laser welding robot system. Especially, the development of the laser-stripe sensor is highlighted. The laser-stripe sensor can measure the profile of the welding obj...

Camera-guided Feeding of Optics in Robot- based Laser Assembly

Optics and laser technology are sectors in high technology with significant perspectives for the near future. Especially, photonics industry is regarded to be highly innovative and new products are developed and brought to market frequently. Once photonics has established a product, the production often migrates to countries with low labor costs. This is caused by the fact that production proce...

Vehicle Suspension Inspection by Stewart Robot

The suspension system of a vehicle is one of the most important parts which is involved in the process of vehicle designing. When a vehicle suspension system is designed, the evaluation of its performance against the road disturbances such as shocks and bumps are very important. The most commonly used systems consist of four hydraulic Jacks with mobility in vertical line with low speed and l...
