Local Dynamics Adaption for Trajectory Optimization and Stabilization of underactuated AUV's

from: Lukas Rust  (Universität Bremen)
In the recent decades, many missions have been undertaken to investigate Europa, one of Jupiter’s moons. It’s surface consists of a thick ice crust which covers a deep ocean underneath it. To inspect the ocean a system was conceptualized at DFKI Bremen which would drill through the ice and then depl…

Control of Dynamic Parkour Motions for a hopping leg on a Broomstick

from: Maximilian Albracht  (FH Aachen)
As legged locomotion in nature is very dynamic and rich, this elegant form of locomotion should also be exploited by robots to enable efficient and unrestricted locomotion even on difficult terrain. As a contribution to those efforts, work is to be conducted on the robotic system of a hopping leg on…

Mechatronic Design and Control of an Underactuated Three-link Brachiation Robot

from: Grama Srinivas Shourie  (École Centrale de Nantes, Nantes, France)
Brachiation is a way of moving from place to place by swinging between branches of trees, employed by monkeys (mostly gibbons), using only their arms. During brachiation, if the next branch is far away such that the gibbon is expected to have a dynamic free flight phase in its motion, this fast moti…

Reinforcement Learning-based Control for Swing-up and Stabilization of an Underactuated Double Pendulum System

from: Chi Zhang  (Technische Universität München)
Reinforcement learning-based control for robots has been a hot research topic in recent years, as  it  has  demonstrated  potential  advantages  over  traditional  control  methods  for  nonlinear systems, including reduced reliance on model inf…

Model Predictive Controller for 3-dof free floating platform with binary actuated thrusters and reaction wheel

from: Franek Stark  (Universität Bremen)
Air-bearing-based platforms are used to simulate microgravity on earth. Therefore, these platforms can be used to test for example Active Space Debris Removal (ASDR) maneuvers. European Space Agency’s Orbital Robotics and GNC Lab (ORGL) features a 5m ⇥ 9m flat floor. A 130 kg heavy air-bearing platf…

Detection and Autonomous Following of Divers of Divers Utilizing Forward Looking Sonar

from: Samin Yasar Haque  (Jacobs University Bremen)
Imaging sonar is commonly used in underwater detection tasks, as it can provide acoustic imaging of underwater environments in low or zero visibility conditions where optical sensors fail. The forward-looking sonar (FLS) is commonly used for monitoring tasks due to its capability of providing an aco…

Episodic Lang-Term Memory for Planetary Robotics Autonomous Navigation

from: Andre Felmet  (Universität Bremen)
Long-term autonomous robotic missions, especially in isolated environments, have to cope with various challenges, e.g., limited possibilities for maintenance or recovery in case of failure. Better adaptation of the robot to its environment is therefore the first step towards a more robust behavioura…

Development of a vertical Launch and Recovery System for the AUV DeepLeng

from: Jonas Pollex  (Universität Bremen)
The Europa Explorar LUNa project is developing an exploration mission to Jupiter's moon Europa. The objective is to explore the 100 km deep ocean beneath a 20 km thick layer of ice. For this purpose, the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) DeepLeng must be transported through the ice. In the thesis,…
