Stairway Detection Based on Single Camera by Motion Stereo
(2011-06-28)
In this paper we are proposing a method for detecting the localization of indoor stairways. This is a fundamental step for the implementation of autonomous stair climbing navigation and passive alarm systems intended for ...
High-Resolution Indirect Feet–Ground Interaction Measurement for Hydraulic-Legged Robots
(10/01/2009)
Feet-ground interactions influence the legged robot's stability. In this paper, a high-resolution indirect force measurement for hydraulic-legged robots is presented. The use of pressure transducers placed at one or both ...
Identification technologies to support Alzheimer contexts
(07/16/2008)
Alzheimer's disease makes great demands on care by assistants, due to the fact that they cannot distract their attention from patients while they are at the same time managing records. For that reason, technologies to ...
Lane marking recognition based on laser scanning
(06/03/2015)
Towards safe autonomous vehicle navigation the problem of lane detection and classification is highly important in the development of advanced driver assistance system (ADAS). This paper proposes a new method to detect the ...
