It highlights concerns about the maintenance of the dignity of vulnerable elderly people, and points out some of the contradictory uses of the word ‘dignity’. Some authors have resolved the contradictions by identifying different senses; contrasting the inviolable dignity inherent in human life to other f...
متن کاملData Fusion of FLIR and LADAR in Autonomous Weapons Systems
We use data fusion in our automatic target recognition (ATR) system to identify and track airbourne objects. The fusion process allows for a much more robust conclusion to be drawn from what may well be incomplete data. The method we use for the fusion process is twofold. The Transferable belief model (TBM), which is derived from Dempster Shafer Theory (DST) is used for matching type and Kalman...
متن کاملRobots in Human Environments: Basic Autonomous Capabilities Robots in Human Environments: Basic Autonomous Capabilities
This article discusses the basic capabilities needed to enable robots to operate in human-populated environments for accomplishing both autonomous tasks and human-guided tasks. These capabilities are key to many new emerging robotic applications in service, construction, field, underwater, and space. An important characteristic of these robots is the “assistance” ability they can bring to human...
