Capítol de llibre
Accés obertEs repassen diverses iniciatives que implementen i reforcen el bucle de realimentació entre ciència i ficció. En particular, es descriuen algunes propostes que utilitzen la ciència-ficció com una eina pedagògicament ... -
Closed-loop inverse kinematics for redundant robots: comparative assessment and two enhancements
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2015)
Article
Accés obertMotivated by the need of a robust and practical Inverse Kinematics (IK) algorithm for the WAM robot arm, we reviewed the most used Closed-Loop IK (CLIK) methods for redundant robots, analysing their main points of concern: ... -
Cognitive system framework for brain-training exercise based on human-robot interactif
(2020-02-25)
Article
Accés obertEvery 3 seconds, someone develops dementia worldwide. Brain-training exercises, preferably involving also physical activity, have shown their potential to monitor and improve the brain function of people affected by Alzheimer ... -
Combining semantic and geometric features for object class segmentation of indoor scenes
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016)
Article
Accés obertScene understanding is a necessary prerequisite for robots acting autonomously in complex environments. Low-cost RGB-D cameras such as Microsoft Kinect enabled new methods for analyzing indoor scenes and are now ubiquitously ... -
Configuration space of a textile rectangle
