Miniature adhesive patches (MAPs) are widely used in medicine for tissue repair, wound healing, and biosensing applications. Despite considerable advances in medical robotics, the automated in vivo delivery of MAPs remains a formidable challenge due to the intricate nature of biological environments
Supernumerary robotic limbs (SRLs) can assist humans in achieving efficient and comfortable work in daily life or industrial assembly scenarios, requiring SRLs to switch between rigidity and flexibility to perform compliant movements while also providing stable support for humans to reduce fatigue f
Simultaneous assembly of multiple objects is a key technology to form solid connections among objects to get compact structures in precision assembly and micro-assembly. Dramatically different from traditional assembly of two objects, the interaction among multiple objects is more complicated on ana…
Infrared imaging spectrometer (IRIS) often suffers from overlapped bands and random noises, which limit the precision of subsequent processing in robot vision sensing. To address this problem, we propose a novel Gabor transform-based infrared spectrum restoration method by successfully exploring the…
Convolutional neural networks have achieved wide success in RGB saliency detection. Recently, the advent of RGB-D sensors such as Kinect provide additional geometric saliency cues. However, the key challenge for RGB-D salient object detection that how to fuse RGB and depth information sufficiently i…
Fusing RGB and depth data is compelling in boosting performance for various robotic and computer vision tasks. Typically, the streams of RGB and depth information are merged into a single fusion point in an early or late stage to generate combined features or decisions. The single fusion point also…
This paper proposes a flexible descriptor for representing 6-D rigid body motion trajectories, which not only shows strong invariances and descriptive ability but also achieves satisfactory results in both recognition accuracy and efficiency. 6-D rigid body motion trajectories are first transformed…
