Classical haptic teleoperation systems heavily rely on operators’ intelligence and efforts in aerial robot navigation tasks, thereby posing significantly users’ workloads. In this paper, a novel shared control scheme is presented facilitating a multirotor aerial robot haptic teleoperation system that exhibits autonomous navigation capability. A hidden Markov model filter is proposed to identify the intention state of operator based on human inputs from haptic master device, which is subsequently adopted to derive goal position for a heuristic sampling based local path planner. The human inputs are considered as commanded velocity for a trajectory servo controller to drive the robot along the planned path. In addition, vehicle velocity is perceived by the user via haptic feedback on master device to enhance situation awareness and navigation safety of the user. An experimental study was conducted in a simulated and a physical environment, and the results verify the effectiveness of the novel scheme in safe navigation of aerial robots. A user study was carried out between a classical haptic teleoperation system and the proposed approach in the identical simulated complex environment. The flight data and task load index (TLX) are acquired and analyzed. Compared with the conventional haptic teleoperation scheme, the proposed scheme exhibits superior performance in safe and fast navigation of the multirotor vehicle, and is also of low task and cognitive loads.

In this paper, based on the proposed basic implementation of circular projection, a multi-camera setup which can be used for panoramic stereo imaging is presented. Firstly, we get multiple stereo pairs instantly by fixing multiple cameras on the proposed setup, which is an approximate implementation of circular projection. We then prove that the influence on the resultant stereo pairs generated by this approximate setup is slight based on similar triangles and structural similarity (SSIM). With these stereo pairs, the automatic panoramic image stitching algorithm is applied to generate panoramas for both eyes. In addition, with reasonable distance between cameras and the scene, physical dimensions of this setup are given. Finally, experimental results demonstrate that our scheme can be used to generate cylindrical stereo panoramic image with proper scene depth, which can provide viewers with distinguishing stereoscopic experience. The device can be installed on the mobile equipment and captures panoramic stereo image in a moment without stopping. In the future, the proposed setup can be used in the field of network navigation, video monitor and virtual reality. 相似文献
In this paper, a nonlinear entanglement witness criterion based on continuous-variable local orthogonal observables for bipartite states is established, which is strictly stronger than the the linear entanglement witnesses criterion introduced by Zhang et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 111:190501, 2013). This criterion is particularly applied to two-mode Gaussian states yielding a criterion in terms of the covariance matrix. Comparison with CCNR criterion is discussed. 相似文献
We developed a new approach for particle separation by introducing viscosity difference of the sheath flows to form an asymmetric focusing of sample particle flow. This approach relies on the high-velocity gradient in the asymmetric focusing of the particle flow to generate a lift force, which plays a dominated role in the particle separation. The larger particles migrate away from the original streamline to the side of the higher relative velocity, while the smaller particles remain close to the streamline. Under high-viscosity (glycerol–water solution) and low-viscosity (PBS) sheath flows, a significant large stroke separation between the smaller (1.0 μm) and larger (9.9 μm) particles was achieved in a sample microfluidic device. We demonstrate that the flow rate and the viscosity difference of the sheath flows have an impact on the interval distance of the particle separation that affects the collected purity and on the focusing distribution of the smaller particles that affects the collected concentration. The interval distance of 293 μm (relative to the channel width: 0.281) and the focusing distribution of 112 μm (relative to the channel width: 0.107) were obtained in the 1042-μm-width separation area of the device. This separation method proposed in our work can potentially be applied to biological and medical applications due to the wide interval distance and the narrow focusing distribution of the particle separation, by easy manufacturing in a simple device. 相似文献
