1. 1. How About Running on Mars ? Influence of Sensory Coherence on the Running Pattern and on Spatial Perception in Simulated Reduced Gravity

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Author : Marie Keime; [2022]
   Keywords : Adaptation; Gravity; Locomotion; Sensory factors; Spatial perception; Unweighting.; Rörelse; Gravitation; Anpassning; Avvägning; Sensoriska faktorer; Rumslig uppfattning.;

   Abstract : Motor control, including locomotion, strongly depends on the gravitational field. Recent developments like lower-body positive pressure treadmills (LBPPTs) have enabled Earth- based studies on the effects of reduced body weight (BW) on walking and running. Yet, the observed adaptations to simulated hypogravity are not optimal. READ MORE

3. 2. Non-Actual Motion Expressions in Language and Gesture

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kognitiv semiotik; Lunds universitet/Masterprogram: Språk och språkvetenskap

   Author : Linea Brink Andersen; [2020]
   Keywords : Cognitive semiotics Fictive motion Gesture Grounding Non-actual motion Phenomenology Subjective motion.; Languages and Literatures;

   Abstract : This thesis studies the phenomenon of non-actual motion (NAM) (Blomberg, 2014; Blomberg & Zlatev 2014), and its expression in language and gestures. It has been documented that many languages employ expressions of motion in descriptions of static scenarios (Amagawa, 1997; Blomberg, 2014; Matsumoto, 1996; Rojo & Valenzuela, 2003, 2009; Stosic & Sarda, 2009), here called NAM-expressions (NAM-Es).

4. 3. Real-Time Monocular SLAM System Using an Inertial Measurement Unit to Estimate the Metric Scale and Gravity Direction

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

   Author : Patrik Persson; [2018]
   Keywords : Computer vision; SLAM; sensor fusion; autonomous drones; Technology and Engineering; Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : In this work a simultaneous localisation and mapping system, SLAM, has been constructed which can incorporate inertial measurement unit, IMU, data such as accelerometer and gyroscope data to estimate the metric scale and the relationship to the gravity vector of the SLAM solution. The system can perform accurate pose predictions at 100Hz based on IMU data and previous camera poses. READ MORE

5. 4. Kinematic Motion Planning for a 7-AxisRobotic Arm (LWA70 by Schunk)

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för tillämpad fysik och elektronik

   Author : Shehab Mohammed; [2016]
   Keywords : Robotics; Manipulator; Kinematics; Redundancy; Self-motion; Trajectory;

   Abstract : Redundant manipulators are widely used because they have a greater dexterity andversatility than nonredundant manipulators. In the redundant manipulators, thenumber of degrees of freedom are more than the required to manipulate objects atthe task space, which leads to a possibility to generate infinite number of solutions.

6. 5. FlyTracker: Design and Implementation of an Interactive Motion Tracking System

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för visuell information och interaktion

   Author : Kristian Johansson; [2014]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : At the department of neuroscience at Uppsala University one of the research groups are working with motion vision. Motion vision is how seeing animal species process moving objects in their visual fields and how they experience self motion by generating an optic flow. READ MORE
