IAU XXIX General Assembly

Body Solar system bodies are observed at many scattering angles. The reflection and polarization change withphase angle of light scattered from particulates has been studied for a century in the lab in efforts tounderstand clouds, aerosols, planetary ring systems and planetary regoliths. These effects must beunderstood in order to infer surface properties from astronomical data. The...

General translational assembly planning

General Translational Assembly Planning Achim Schweikard, Fabian Schwarzer Informatik Technische Universit at M unchen, 80290 M unchen [email protected] Abstract: An exact and practical method for translational motion planning with many degrees of freedom is derived. It is shown that certain D dimensional arrangements of hyperplanes can be searched in the following way: only...

General Assembly, Third Committee

The scale of maternal mortality dwarfs the number of ‘disappearances’ and death penalty cases. Yet ‘disappearances’ and death penalty cases attract much more attention from the human rights community than preventable maternal mortality. ‘Disappearances’, for example, have a UN human rights ‘special procedure’, as well as international and regional human rights treaties. And so they should. ‘Dis...

Autonomy for Automotive General Assembly

Given an assembly task as specified by a sequence of subtasks, an autonomous assembly system is capable to achieve the specified goal within a known or unknown environment, without human interaction, from an initial unknown location, with uncertain sensing, uncertain execution, and uncertain actuation. Given an automotive general assembly task and its associated environment, autonomous assembly...
