Climbing robots are highly in need for catering the inspection of the high rise buildings. Climbing Robots has to work in challenging environments and has to maneuver vertically against gravity and orient towards the specified target by adapting to various surfaces. The proposed Wall Climbing Robot weighs 1 Kg , works with four active suction cups and driven with pneumatic supply cylinder drive...

Abstract This research focuses on student–robot interaction in the learning environment of robotics education (RE) and attempts to explore how it cultivates students’ computational thinking (CT). Different from child–robot interactions as investigated social robot field, (S–R) focus mainly process between learners programmable kits RE settings. At a four-week summer camp China, mixed-methods wa...

mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. in this paper, a new approachis proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. the proposedapproach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the trackusing a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. for training, a human operator navigates themobile robot in some...

Reconfigurable continuum robots exhibit programmable interaction capability, enabling them to cope with challenges poorly addressed by conventional rigid robots. However, the regulation of module type and/or sequence may result in time-consuming and labor-intensive problems. Therefore, situ reconfiguration schemes are required develop a simple yet robust solution for robot design. Herein, inspi...

The study of the acceleration properties a t the end effector is important in the analysis, design, and control of robot manipulators. I n previous ejTorts aimed a t addressing this problem, the end-effector acceleration has been treated as a vector combining both the linear and ‘angular accelerations. The methodology presented in this article provides characterization:s of these two different ...

Compliant grasping is an important function of continuum robots that interact with humans and/or unpredictable environments. However, the existing often have cross-sections remain constant along their length. This causes to exhibit poor ability, especially when dealing objects diverse curvatures. Here, inspired by high adaptability seahorse tails in grasping, a cable-driven robot tapered tenseg...

This paper explores the potential for making use of 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Service Enabler Architecture Layer (SEAL) TS 23.434 even easier and more automatic in various industry verticals applying Robot Operating System 2 (ROS2) their operation. The proposed solution involves implementing a mapping node that converts ROS2 settings to 3GPP SEAL requests an information collecti...
