In this work, we investigate the application of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-enabled wireless power transfer (WPT) system in large-scale wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The specific researc ... Read More

With the wide application of mobile robots in unstructured environments, an obstacle avoidance system with good performance has become an important part of mobile robot systems. We propose an ob ... Read More

The detection and pose estimation of objects in human demonstrations remain challenging yet crucial tasks. The increasing availability of red-green-blue and depth sensors makes it possible to sy ... Read More

To improve the dynamic accuracy of a five-axis machine tool, an evaluation method based on a test piece and a comprehensive evaluation (CE) system is proposed in this paper. The test pieces, nam ... Read More

The use of a single method of acceleration threshold discrimination cannot fully characterize the change in human fall behavior, which can easily result in misjudgment. In this paper, we propose ... Read More

Robotic assistance is promising for improving minimally invasive surgery (MIS). This work presents asymmetric bimanual control of a dual-arm serial robot with two remote centers of motion (RCMs) ... Read More

To obtain the dynamic torques exerted at different location points on a wide-blade drill rod, a sleeve-type torque sensor is proposed and designed. Firstly, the relationship model between torque ... Read More

Convolutional neural network (CNN)-based methods, which train an end-to-end model to regress a six degree of freedom (DoF) pose of a robot from a single red–green–blue (RGB) image, have been ... Read More

In this paper, we present an emotion recognition framework based on a recurrent neural network with parametric bias (RNNPB) to classify six basic emotions of humans (joy, pride, fear, anger, sadn ... Read More

The lower exoskeleton system has attracted considerable interest in walking assistance of paraplegic patients. A critical issue in the walking assistance lower exoskeleton is how to generate gai ... Read More

Toward resolving the problems of traditional public transport services in the case of low-density passenger flow, including high empty-loading rate, long waiting time, high operation cost, and so ... Read More

In recent years, the novel bacterial foraging optimization has been widely applied. However, in past studies, the process of bacterial foraging lacked guidance and the structure of the algorithm ... Read More

To investigate the effects of magnetic induction intensity, magnetic field treatment time, and solution concentration on the magnetic memory time of CaCO3 solution, an orthogonal experiment was c ... Read More
