  1. 16. Human and Robot Narrator: How Gestures Affect Comprehension and Recollection

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kognitionsvetenskap

    Author : Johannes Rosenfrost; [2023]
    Keywords : Cognitive Science; Cognition; Embodiment; Humanoid Robots; Social Robots; HRI; Human-Robot-Interaction; Social Interaction; Robotics; Linguistics; Communication; Multimodality; Non-verbal; Gestures; Narration; Comprehension; Recollection; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : This thesis investigated if a human or a robot narrator affected listeners’ comprehension and memory recollection similarly in a narrative story. 103 participants (MeanAge = 35) were recruited to an online experiment to investigate if gestures affected the participants’ narrative comprehension and recollection more than a narrator that did not produce gestures.

  3. 17. Reaction Wheel Control System for a Self-balancing Bike : Reaction wheel based control mechanism for a small scale prototype bike

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

    Author : Reman Soryani; [2023]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Control Theory; Reaction Wheel; PID Controller; Robotics; Mekatronik; Reglerteknik; Mekanik; PID reglering; Robotik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the design of a self balancing prototype bike with a reaction wheel as balancing mechanism will be investigated. Bikes are inherently unstable systems, that dynamically resemble an inverted pendulum at a stand still. READ MORE

  4. 18. Optimal Gait Control of Soft Quadruped Robot by Model-based Reinforcement Learning

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

    Author : Niu Xuezhi; [2023]
    Keywords : Quadruped Robots; Soft Robotics; Reinforcement Learning; Gait Control; Model-Based Control Optimization; Kvadrupedroboter; Mjukrobotik; Förstärkningsinlärning; Gångkontroll; Optimering av robotkontroll;

    Abstract : Quadruped robots offer distinct advantages in navigating challenging terrains due to their flexible and shock-absorbing characteristics. This flexibility allows them to adapt to uneven surfaces, enhancing their maneuverability. READ MORE

  5. 19. Design of an Industrial Bin Picking Station

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Innovation

    Author : Jonathan Ramb; [2023]
    Keywords : bin picking; computer vision; automation; robotics; 3D Scanning; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : With the ever-increasing demand for automation, new ways to optimize production lines are needed. The aim of this thesis is to complete an industrial automation task by employing a concept in robotics known as bin picking. The concept involves organizing objects by picking them out of a cluttered bin using an industrial robot. READ MORE

  6. 20. Local traversability assessment in an unmanned ground vehicle : An analysis of mobility on the UGV Husky

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

    Author : Kidus Y. Getahun; [2023]
    Keywords : UGV; Husky; Robotics Operating System; Traversability Estimation; Vehicle Dynamics; Elevation Mapping; UGV; Husky; Framkomlighets Bedömning; Fordonsdynamik;

    Abstract : This thesis project aims to learn and understand more about implementing a path planner to the unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), UGV Husky, specifically its traversability algorithm, and investigate how it could be further improved. A surrounding grid is generated around the UGV where each cell contains information connected to its traversability. READ MORE
