HUMAN-ROBOT INTERACTION AND TRACKING USING LOW COST 3D VISION SYSTEMS
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2012, Vol 57, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper describes a platform which allows humans to interact with robotic arms using augmented reality. Low cost “kinect” cameras (Xbox 360) are used for tracking human skeletons and locations of robot’s end effectors. The main goal of this paper is to develop robust trackers on this platform. Concretely, a Kalman filter is used for tracking robotic arms using data received from these sensors. It comes to finding a low cost platform for human-robot interactions.

ON THE GEOMETRY OF THE HOMOGENEOUS REPRESENTATION FOR THE GROUP OF PROPER RIGID-BODY DISPLACEMENTS
This work investigates the geometry of the homogeneous representation of the group of proper rigid-body displacements. In particular it is shown that there is a birationaltransformationfromtheStudyquadrictothevarietydete...
THIN FILMS FLOW DRIVEN BY GRAVITY AND A SURFACE TENSION GRADIENT
The flow of a thin layer on a horizontal plate in the lubrication approximation is considered. The flow is driven simultaneously by gravity and some gradients of surface tension. These gradients imply a non-zero tangenti...
A NUMERICAL ASYMPTOTIC FORMULATION FOR THE POST-BUCKLING ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES IN CASE OF COUPLED INSTABILITY
The analysis of slender structures, characterized by complex buckling and postbuckling phenomena and by a strong imperfection sensitivity, is heavily penalized by the lack of adequate computational tools. Standard increm...
COMBINED XFEM-COHESIVE FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSES OF SINGLE-LAP JOINTS
Cohesive Zone Modelling (CZM) and eXtended Finite Element Modelling (XFEM) available in Abaqus® are used together to simulate the behaviour and strength of a single-lap adhesively bonded joint. A distinct CZM model is al...
HELICAL SPRING WITH VARIABLE WIRE DIAMETER
The geometrical and functional particularities of helical springs with variable wire diameter are studied in this paper. The spring’s characteristic is determined by two factors. On one hand, by the minimum distance betw...
