Sensing Polygon Poses by Inscription

Yan-Bin Jia Michael Erdmann The Robotics Institute School of Computer Science Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, PA 15213-3891 Abstract Industrial assembly involves sensing the pose (orientation and position) of a part. E cient and reliable sensing strategies can be developed for an assembly task if the shape of the part is known in advance. In this paper we investigate the problem of deter...

Sub-critical regime of femtosecond inscription.

We apply well known nonlinear diffraction theory governing focusing of a powerful light beam of arbitrary shape in medium with Kerr nonlinearity to the analysis of femtosecond (fs) laser processing of dielectric in sub-critical (input power less than the critical power of self-focusing) regime. Simple analytical expressions are derived for the input beam power and spatial focusing parameter (nu...
