The use of ground-based robotic systems for the characterisation of nuclear environments is
reviewed. Almost since the dawn of the nuclear energy industry, man has somewhat …

Applying the learning mechanism of natural living beings to endow intelligent robots with
humanoid perception and decision-making wisdom becomes an important force to promote …

In this paper, we explore the use of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication to improve the
perception and motion forecasting performance of self-driving vehicles. By intelligently …

This article presents a robotic pick-and-place system that is capable of gras** and
recognizing both known and novel objects in cluttered environments. The key new feature of …

Robots have the potential to facilitate future therapies for children on the autism spectrum.
However, existing robots are limited in their ability to automatically perceive and respond to …

In this letter, we tackle the problem of active robotic 3D reconstruction of an object. In
particular, we study how a mobile robot with an arm-held camera can select a favorable …

Despite the recent successes in robotics, artificial intelligence and computer vision, a
complete artificial agent necessarily must include active perception. A multitude of ideas and …

Biologically inspired artificial vision research has led to innovative robotic vision systems
with low optical aberration, wide field of view, and compact form factor. However, challenges …

Intelligent systems are increasingly part of our everyday lives and have been integrated
seamlessly to the point where it is difficult to imagine a world without them. Physical …

We propose three sampling-based motion planning algorithms for generating informative
mobile robot trajectories. The goal is to find a trajectory that maximizes an information quality …
