3D Pose Recognition System of Dump Truck for Autonomous Excavator

A robotic excavator for autonomous truck loading

Excavators are used for the rapid removal of soil and other materials in mines, quarries, and construction sites. The automation of these machines offers promise for increasing productivity and improving safety. To date, most research in this area has focussed on selected parts of the problem. In this paper, we present a system that completely automates the truck loading task. The excavator use...

Comparative Research on Optimal Damping Matching of Seat System for an off-Highway Dump Truck

To protect the driver of off-highway dump trucks from the harmful vibration, this paper presents the comparison results to determine the optimal damping of the seat system by different optimization design plans. Three optimization schemes are considered including individually optimizing the damping of the cushion, individually optimizing the damping of the seat suspension, and integrately optim...

2d-3d Pose Invariant Face Recognition System for Multimedia Applications

Automatic Face recognition of people is a challenging problem which has received much attention during the recent years due to its potential multimedia applications in different fields such as 3D videoconference, security applications or video indexing. However, there is no technique that provides a robust solution to all situations and different applications, yet. Face recognition includes a s...

Feedback Linearization Control for Path Tracking of Articulated Dump Truck

The articulated dump truck is a widespread transport vehicle for narrow rough terrain environment. To achieve the autonomous driving in the underground tunnel, this article proposes a path following strategy -for articulated vehicle based on feedback linearization algorithm. First of all, the kinematic model of articulated vehicle, which reflects the relationship between the structure parameter...
