We had a great meeting with everyone at National Robotics Engineering Center to discuss some potential applications! The conversations included some potential applications for their projects but they also gave us a lot of general ideas about where else this device could be used. Definitely a lot to think about and we really appreciate the insights. The feedback we received reaffirms our belief that this linear actuator technology has the potential to revolutionize a wide range of industries. We can't wait to share more updates as we progress! Make sure to follow our new company Tension Dynamics as we are going to be posting about our journey of bringing new technology to market. #linearactuator #robotics #engineering #automation #manufacturing #industrialautomation #roboticsengineering #innovation #technology #tech #newtech #innovationtechnology #pittsburgh #pghtech #pghinnovation #collaboration #partnership #networking

🌞 How to not spill a single drop 💦 It’s Sunday. Let's not disturb this family idyll with a high-tech material and lean into automation in a pleasant way :) 🔸 An intriguing aspect of robotic movement: Speed Profiles. Specifically, the differences between Rectangular and Trapezoid speed profiles. 🔄 🔸Imagine a scenario where precision and smoothness are crucial – like transporting a pint of beer on a robotic table without spilling a drop! 🍺 👉 Rectangular Speed Profile: This approach involves abrupt starts and stops. Think of it like a car going from 0 to 100 instantly and then slamming the brakes. Perfect for the situation where speed and time is crucial. 👉 Trapezoid Speed Profile: Trapezoidal profiles incorporate gradual acceleration and deceleration phases. It's akin to easing your car into motion and gently coming to a stop. This movement profile is perfect everywhere where smoothies is a key. Thanks to MAB Robotics we are able to see the difference in person, without harming any beer :) Credits: Robert Smak

I'm pleased to share our latest publication, "A Self-Reconfiguration Algorithm for Sliding Triangular Modular Robots," co-authored with Oded Medina. In this paper, we introduce an innovative algorithm aimed at enhancing the adaptability of 2D Sliding Triangular Modular Robots in complex scenarios. A central element of our research is the robust proof we've provided for the connectivity between any two horizontally-convex configurations. This aspect underlines the strength and reliability of our approach. We also illustrate the practical application of our work with a motion planning example: a STRIMOR with 1000 modules efficiently navigating through a narrow gap. Our research aims to contribute to the ongoing developments in modular robotics. For those interested in a deeper exploration of our findings, I invite you to read our article. We truly value your interest and support in our endeavors.

Our latest paper, "Dynamic Modeling and Sliding Mode Control of an Over-Actuated Quadrotor with Variable Hedral Angle of Propeller Axes," has been published and is now available on IEEE Xplore. This paper represents just a small portion of our extensive work and research on the SAC-1 project which unlocks a new era in aerial robotics. Stay tuned for our upcoming articles if you are a big fan of the intricate world of aerial robotics. 🔗 Link to the paper: https://lnkd.in/gAP5kHbT #AerialRobotics #Robotics #Control #DynamicSystems #IEEE #Hedral

Thor Power Trezium power system with the Grismir PMAC power device - not spill a single drop, also cut an unragged/straight curve.

The semi-autonomous design of SippTech's robotic tools minimize the need for manned entry into a pipe. As a result, the entire process is safer than most other rehabilitation methods. SippTech is the future of pipeline rehabilitation. #pipelineintegrity #fiftyyeardesignlife #trenchlesstechnology #thefutureofpipelinerehabilitation

Q.1:If it took Earth 1 billion years to form life and then another billion years to form animals, how long would it take humans to make life on another planet livable? A.1: Humans are all grown up or overgrown witch ever ways we look back or forward at it, the secret is safe to say thank robotics and automation testing techniques and technology to create robotics to create strong substation building construction industries so we can get Off this decomposing craft!

If you thought my Line-Follower was the only one going through some INTENSE training this week, YOU'RE WRONG !! 🔥💪🔥 Today in the #IonPrototypingLab at Ion Houston, I programmed the motor control logic for Lil' Spud which allowed him to hug walls ! Note: In the video, Lil' Spud automatically turns to align himself and maintain a predefined distance from the perimeter. Similar to the Line-Follower, Lil' Spud utilizes the 💥 Bang-Bang 💥 control method for staying with the wall. Over the next week or two, I will implement the P.I.D control loop into Lil' Spud's motor logic. Over the next couple of weeks, Lil' Spud will receive the following improvements: - P.I.D control loop for smoother perimeter following - ‘circular buffer’ averaging filter to reduce ultrasonic sensor signal noise - Mounting bracket { designed in OnShape } for a cluster of HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors to improve perimeter-following accuracy I will release the GitHub repository for the 'perimeter-following' code later this week !

MTRN4092 Thesis Project: Simulating Weaver Ant Behavior with Zumo Robots This video showcases my thesis project, where I used a Zumo robot equipped with a camera to simulate the behavior of weaver ants. The system demonstrates the robot's ability to navigate obstacles and locate targets. This is inspired by the natural foraging and obstacle-avoidance strategies of these remarkable insects.
