An unmanned aerial vehicle has a high number of electronics onboard. The selection of all the components is a hard task because the playload is limited. We need to select the more efficient and light of each desirable component. Six motors were installed on the aircraft to increase the playload. A latest model laser sensor...

In the last reporting period, the project is developing from experiment conception and architecture design into the installation of the experiment prototype system. We have collected most of the equipment offers and are now initiating the orders. Due to the late official accession, orders are a bit behind the plan. We have...

In September and October 2012, the work was focused on gesture and action recognition. So far, it is based on Description Logics (DLs) which uses a taxonomy about actions, activities and gestures as a knowledge base. Recognition results are inferred directly by providing assertional knowledge which state information about...

The activities of the last two months are two-folded. We further consolidated our results from the user study at Harting and proceeded with the integration of perception in the FlexIRob-Setup.
Our submission "A User Study on Kinesthetic Teaching and Learning for Efficient Reconfiguration of Redundant Robot" is now finally...

In the last two months we have concentrated on the integration of a 3D Vision sensor into the FlexIRob scenario and the implementation of a detection of dynamic obstacles in the workspace of the robot arm.
First, a calibration of the sensor (here, Kinect camera) and the robot arm is realized by using the end effector...

Our biggest event in the last two months was the preparation and realization of our exhibition an the Hannover fair (08.04. - 12.04.2013). We presented our enhanced FlexIRob system as it was evaluated in our user study with workers at Harting. In particular, we presented the fast configuration of the Kuka LWR IV to a confined...
