  1. 1. Heuristic control of a small line-following robot : A comparison of different methods

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Neo Gumbel; Omed Khirzia; [2022]
    Keywords : PID; Ziegler-Nichols; Tyreus-Luyben; Heuristic; Line-follower; PID; Ziegler-Nichols; Tyreus-Luyben; Heuristik; Linjeföljare;

    Abstract : A line-follower is a robot that follows a line. Line-followers can be used in industry, mostly for material transportation, but are also raced against each other in competitions. While line-followers used in industry prioritize smooth motion and accuracy, competition-style line-followers prioritize speed around the track. READ MORE

  3. 2. Faster Environment Modelling and Integration into Virtual Reality Simulations

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Jonas Nyman; [2021]
    Keywords : 3D re-construction; Digital Photogrammetry; LiDAR; Remote Sensing; Point Cloud; Point cloud to mesh; Terrestrial Laser Scanning; Static Laser scan; Virtual Reality;

    Abstract : The use of virtual reality in engineering tasks, such as in virtual commissioning, has increased steadily in recent years, where a robot, machine or object of interest can be simulated and visualized. Yet, for a more immerse experience, an environment for the object in question needs to be constructed. READ MORE

  4. 3. Skill Imitation Learning on Dual-arm Robotic Systems

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

    Author : Jonathan Österberg; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A control system used to control two Panda Franka Emika robots online and simultaneously with two HTC Vive controllers is presented, with the primary purpose of demonstrating tasks for robots. The system is validated by learning from demonstration/imitation learning task via Principle Component Analysis (PCA). READ MORE

  5. 4. Transfer of reinforcement learning for a robotic skill

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Dulce Adriana Gómez Rosal; [2018]
    Keywords : Transfer learning; Reinforcement learning; Simulation; Robotics;

    Abstract : In this work, we develop the transfer learning (TL) of reinforcement learning (RL) for the robotic skill of throwing a ball into a basket, from a computer simulated environment to a real-world implementation. Whereas learning of the same skill has been previously explored by using a Programming by Demonstration approach directly on the real-world robot, for our work, the model-based RL algorithm PILCO was employed as an alternative as it provides the robot with no previous knowledge or hints, i.

  6. 5. “Do you want to take a short survey?” : Evaluating and improving the UX and VUI of a survey skill in the social robot Furhat: a qualitative case study

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för informatik (IK)

    Author : Camilla Bengtsson; Caroline Englund; [2018]
    Keywords : human-robot interaction; HRI; user experience; UX; user experience evaluation; aural survey; voice user interface; VUI; conversational user interface; CUI; social robot; qualitative case study;

    Abstract : The purpose of this qualitative case study is to evaluate an early stage survey skill developed for the social robot Furhat, and look into how the user experience (UX) and voice user interface (VUI) of that skill can be improved. Several qualitative methods have been used: expert evaluations using heuristics for human-robot interaction (HRI), user evaluations including observations and interviews, as well as a quantitative questionnaire (RoSAS – Robot Social Attribution Scale).
