Gaze direction based vehicle teleoperation method with omnidirectional image stabilization and automatic body rotation control

In robot teleoperation, a robot works as a physical agent at a remote site for a robot operator. There are mainly two tasks in robot teleoperation using camera images: environment recognition using visual information and robot control according to the recognition. In this paper, we propose a gaze direction based vehicle teleoperation method with an omnidirectional image stabilization and an automatic body rotation control. In the proposed method, we manage above two tasks in the same manner that are usually treated separately. This method is an intuitive vehicle teleoperation method where an operator do not need to have concern about vehicle body orientations and can absorb differences of vehicle driving mechanisms. That is, this method frees an operator from being bothered from controlling a vehicle and the operator can concentrate on where he/she intends to go. This method mainly consists of two technologies: an omnidirectional image stabilization technology and automatic body rotation control. The conducted experiments show effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Alternative Economics and Sustainable Future: Diverse Cultures/Beliefs/Values as Indispensable Factors

This article argues for a theoretical framework of alternative economics pertinent to Sustainable Development. The alternative economics requires an appropriate belief/value system based on a dynamic, sound and holistic society-specific culture (abbreviated as “Culture”). To represent the Culture-based belief/value system, a general framework for overarching Integral Harmony is introduced as an appropriate social value system for a paradigm shift toward sustainability. Such a social value system is now related to the value premises of the alternative economics. Then, the framework of alternative economics is explained in terms of basic theoretical construct that is simplified as a summary equation comprising value and real aspects. Finally, a typical working of the alternative economics is demonstrated diagrammatically as constant interactions of the value aspect and the real aspect (abbreviated as “Value-Real Interactions”).     

Assessing the effects of gamification in the classroom: A longitudinal study on intrinsic motivation,social comparison,satisfaction, effort,and academic performance

Gamification, the application of game elements to non-game settings, continues to grow in popularity as a method to increase student engagement in the classroom. We tested students across two courses, measuring their motivation, social comparison, effort, satisfaction, learner empowerment, and academic performance at four points during a 16-week semester. One course received a gamified curriculum, featuring a leaderboard and badges, whereas the other course received the same curriculum without the gamified elements. Our results found that students in the gamified course showed less motivation, satisfaction, and empowerment over time than those in the non-gamified class. The effect of course type on students' final exam scores was mediated by students' levels of intrinsic motivation, with students in the gamified course showing less motivation and lower final exam scores than the non-gamified class. This suggests that some care should be taken when applying certain gamification mechanics to educational settings.

Nonsmooth identification of mechanical systems with backlash-like hysteresis

Backlash-like hysteresis is one of the nonsmooth and multi-valued nonlinearities usually existing in mechanical systems. The traditional identification method is quite difficult to be used to model the systems involved with such complex nonlinearities. In this paper, a nonsmooth recursive identification algorithm for the systems with backlash-like hysteresis is proposed. In this method, the concept of Clarke subgradient is introduced to approximate the gradients at nonsmooth points and the so-called bundle method is used to obtain the optimization search direction in nonsmooth cases. Then, a recursive algorithm based on the idea of bundle method is developed for parameter estimation. After that, the convergence analysis of the algorithm is investigated. Finally, simulation results to validate the proposed method on a simulated mechanical transmission system are presented.
