How to Communicate with Zillions of Robots

چکیده

This paper discusses some communications issues relevant to a system consisting of an arbitrarily large number of simple autonomous robots, from several different perspectives: (a) in the language of traditional communications systems analysis, (b) by analogy with biological systems, and (c) as a problem of intelligent control and data fusion. Emphasis is placed on support for the system development process: providing the developer with the ability to efficiently download software revisions and to determine the actual internal behavioral states of system elements while in operation. Also treated are the need to support coordination (or at least cooperation) between elements during system operation, and the process by which an external user can input commands to the system and to receive back from the system such information as system status, environmental characterization, and indications of mission progress. An approach to implementation of a low-cost testbed environment is also presented.

Nonlinear H Control for Uncertain Flexible Joint Robots with Unscented Kalman Filter

Todays, use of combination of two or more methods was considered to control of systems. In this paper ispresented how to design of a nonlinear H∞ (NL-H∞) controller for flexible joint robot (FJR) based on boundedUKF state estimator. The UKF has more advantages to standard EKF such as low bios and no need toderivations. In this research, based on spong primary model for FJRs, same as rigid robot...

EFL Teachers’ Pedagogic Strategies and Students’ Willingness to Communicate: Teachers’ and Learners’ Perceptions

This study explored both teachers’ and learners’ perceptions of teachers’ pedagogic strategies which may engender willingness to communicate (WTC) in an English as a foreign language class and the difference between their perceptions to detect how convergent or possibly how divergent these are. The project used a convenience sample of 300 students taking an intermediate English course and their...

Multi-robot Cooperation for Human-Robot Communication

This paper illustrates how robots can effectively cooperate to facilitate communication with people. We expect that communication robots will play an important role in our daily life. Although these robots can communicate with each other by radio, infrared, or other invisible means, our results show that it is important to human understanding that they are able to communicate with each other by...

Expressive Motion for Low Degree-of-Freedom Robots

Expressive Motion for Low Degree-of-Freedom Robots by Heather Knight As social and collaborative robots move into everyday life, the need for algorithms enabling their acceptance becomes critical. People parse non-verbal communications intuitively, even from machines that do not look like people, thus, expressive motion is a natural and efficient way to communicate with people. This work presen...
