The binary sensor detects whether the robot or object has crossed it, and it maintains a sensing abstraction that includes various physical sensing modalities such as swap lines that indicates the ...

Endoscopes have become a common tool for a variety of examination tasks in areas that are difficult to access. Robotic endoscope systems aim to combine two main requirements for a fast, precise and ...

The binary sensor used only lets a robot know whether or not there is another robot in its direct line of sight. Simulation results with both a memoryless controller (reactive) and a controller with ...

Of course, different sensing systems fit different application spaces—hence, the variety of robots under development each have specific requirements and sensor platforms with the right type of ...
