Thickness Dependence of Sensitivity in Thin Film Tin Oxide Gas Sensors Deposited by Vapor Pyrolysis

Transparent SnO2 thin films were deposited on porcelain substrates using a chemical vapor deposition technique based on the hydrolysis of SnCl4 at elevated temperatures. A reduced pressure self-contained evaporation chamber was designed for the process where the pyrolysis of SnCl4 at the presence of water vapor was carried out. Resistive gas sensors were fabricated by providing ohmic contacts o...

Chemical Plume Tracking Behavior in Animals and Mobile Robots

The most important and challenging feat of navigation for many animals is locating important resources by tracking fluid-borne chemicals. As molecules of a source dissolve into flowing air or water they form a patchy turbulent plume which results in the intermittent stimulation required by many odor tracking animals. Most animals need two pieces of information to track a plume: (1) the presence...

A Q-learning Based Continuous Tuning of Fuzzy Wall Tracking

A simple easy to implement algorithm is proposed to address wall tracking task of an autonomous robot. The robot should navigate in unknown environments, find the nearest wall, and track it solely based on locally sensed data. The proposed method benefits from coupling fuzzy logic and Q-learning to meet requirements of autonomous navigations. Fuzzy if-then rules provide a reliable decision maki...

Modelling and Simulation Platform for Chemical Plume Tracking and Source Localization

Using autonomous robot to detect chemical emissions and track plumes caused by fire, toxic gas leakage and explosive at their early stages, and swiftly localize their sources can avoid risking human health and potentially save lives. The benefits of deploying autonomous robot(s) rather than human beings in performing such hazardous tasks are obvious. Even though using real robots to research, d...

Mobile Robot Odor Plume Tracking using Three Dimensional Information

—This paper studies the utilization of data gathered from multiple gas sensors placed vertically on a wheeled mobile robot to perform plume tracking strategies. The main research questions to be answered are if is this advantageous and if so, trying to quantify that advantage in terms of plume tracking over traditional two dimensional plume acquisition. This was accomplished by testing a few we...
