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

from: Jonas Pollex  (Universität Bremen)
The project Europa Explorer (EurEx) of the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence is developing systems for future exploration missions to the Jovian moon Europa at an early stage. EurEx aims to provide the systems or parts of them for real missions in the future. One of those systems is…

Examining the Potential of VVAD-LRS3: A Comprehensive Cross-Comparison throughout State-of-the-Art VVAD Data Sets

from: Karim Zanaty  (Rushford Business School)
Reliable recognition of people's gestures and mimics is crucial to a natural and intuitive interaction between robots (machines) and humans. Voice Activity Detection (VAD) may play a major role in this context. VAD algorithms detect if the person of interest is currently speaking or not. This can be…

Visual Voice Activity Detection with state-of-the-art video classifiers

from: Cedric Kränzle  (Universität Bremen)
Visual Voice Activity Detection (V-VAD) is the task to determine whether a person is speaking, based on images or video footage. It is a central point in Human Computer Interaction, as it is one of the first signals that can indicate that a human is interacting with a computer. Two new big datasets…

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…
