in this paper, a robust tracking control method for automatic take-off and trajectory tracking of a quadrotor helicopter is presented. the designed controller includes two parts: a position controller and an attitude controller. the attitude controller is designed by using the sliding mode control (smc) method to track the desired pitch and roll angles, which are the output of position controll...

In the field of numerical cognition, ordinality, or the sequence of numerals, has received much less attention than cardinality, or the number of items in a set. Therefore it is unclear whether the numerical effects generated from ordinality and cardinality tasks are associated, and whether they relate to math achievement and more domain-general variables in similar ways. To address these quest...

During adult interactions, behavioral mimicry, the implicit copying of an interaction partner's postures and mannerisms, communicates liking and affiliation. While this social behavior likely develops during early childhood, it is unclear which factors contribute to its emergence. Here, the roles of inhibitory control and social understanding on 5-year-olds' behavioral mimicry were investigated...

According to problems such as low accuracy, high error in the shearer body position, this paper proposes a new computational method combining with the information of shearer, scraper conveyor and hydraulic support in order to realize three machine positioning. Using the sensor information and staticdynamic fusion, this paper solves positioning problem of the three-dimensional in the process of ...

Sit-stand tables have been suggested to increase variation and prevent disorders among office workers. However, it is a challenge to ensure their proper use. Therefore, we developed a system reminding workers to change the height of their sit-stand table at regular intervals. The system consists of three devices: (1) table legs that can be controlled in height by an electric drive; (2) remote c...
