  1. 11. 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. 12. Inchworm Actuating SoftRobotic Belt

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Jialun Liu; [2022]
    Keywords : Soft robotics; Pneumatic artificial muscles; Locomotion;

    Abstract :  Soft robotics is an emerging research subject showing great promise for applications where traditional and rigid robotics is limited, for example, creating stroking sensation by using soft robotics. The purpose of this master's thesis project is to convey caress by designing and manufacturing a wearable haptic soft belt with locomotion. READ MORE

  4. 13. A Trust-Region Method for Multiple Shooting Optimal Control

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Abstract : In recent years, mobile robots have gained tremendous attention from the entire society: the industry is aiming at selling more intelligent products while the academia is improving their performance from all perspectives. Real world examples include autnomous driving vehicles, multirotors, legged robots, etc. READ MORE

  5. 14. Dark pathways : cows’ walking behavior in dim light environments

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Kajsa Ståhlberg; [2022]
    Keywords : night light; illumination; locomotion; activity; intensity; color; distribution; obstacle course;

    Abstract : Swedish dairy cows should have access to dim light at night according to the animal welfare act, but there are no further recommendations stated for dim light management regarding light intensity, light color, or light distribution. This study aimed to examine the effects of five dim light intensities, in red and white light color, and in even and uneven light distribution on cows’ walking behavior in an obstacle course.

  6. 15. Maximizing the VR Play Space by Using Procedurally Generated Impossible Spaces : Research on VR Play Spaces and Their Impact on Game Development

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Vendela Eklund; [2022]
    Keywords : Virtual Reality; Procedural Content Generation; Impossible Spaces; Overlapping Architecture; Natural Walking; Execution Time;

    Abstract : Background. Virtual Reality is a growing sector that provide the most immersive gaming experiences, especially when the locomotion technique natural walking is used. However, it is always limited by the physical play space available for the user. READ MORE
