“Robotics” Mechanical Engineering Handbook
A distinguishing feature of robotics is its multidisciplinary nature — to successfully design robotic systems one must have a grasp of electrical, mechanical, industrial, and computer engineering, as well as economics and business practices. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a background in all these areas so that design for robotic applications may be confronted from a position of insight and confidence. The material covered here falls into two broad areas: function and …

Designing a Self-Stabilizing Robot For Dynamic Mobile Manipulation
… many robots without manipulation capabilities that balance around two wheels such as the SegwayR?Robotic Mobility Platform (RMP) [5], nBot[6], and JOE[7]. There also exist holonomic robots, such as Ballbot, which bal- ancearounda single spherical wheel[8]. Cardeaconsists of a robotic arm on a Segway RMP and has successfully demonstrateda door finding, approaching, and opening task [9]. The most ambitious dynamic balancer is perhaps the configuration of the JSCRobonaut mounted on a Segway …

… , K.N. Krishnanand, and D. Ghose For vision-based navigation experiments, we have built a robotic testbed christened VITAR (Vision based Tracked Autonomous Robot) that consists of a tracked mobile robot equipped with a pan-tilt mounted vision sensor, an on board PC, driver electronics, and a wireless link to a remote PC. A novel appearance-based obstacle avoidance algorithm that uses histograms of images obtained from a monocular camera is developed and tested on the robot. …
Q&A: Robots in the Computer Science Classroom
… sci-fi androids. You can see robots becoming more common in the home today — for example, the robotic vacuum cleaner that’s become very popular. Industrial robots have been common for many years, and while this is not a main driver for us, industrial robots are an important area. The concept of a robotic arm — a personal robot — is something that has factored into our plans with the College of Computing at Georgia Tech. Perhaps the more interesting, contemporary robots for many …
