Greenhouse vertical rack hydroponic systems offer a sustainable and efficient solution for meeting the increasing global food demand. This paper introduces an IoT-integrated automated system designed to perform labor intensive and repetitive tasks in hydroponic farming. The proposed system integrates a robotic platform for transplanting and inspecting plants, as well as an intelligent controller to control and monitor greenhouse conditions and nutrient solution parameters. To enhance performance and accessibility, the system is integrated with an IoT platform, which includes a user-friendly web interface, enabling remote monitoring and control. Key features such as computervisiontechniques and advanced control algorithms are implemented to maximize operational efficiency. Experimental results validate its ability to reduce labor, improve productivity, and ensure consistent crop quality. This solution highlights the potential for scalable and sustainable advancements in modern agriculture.

As part of the Modular intelligent Manipulation system with Intuitive Control program, industry is working with the U. S. Army to explore technologies that will allow a user to intuitively control multiple degree of freedom robotic arms and maintain better awareness of the operating environment through haptic feedback. In addition to reporting resistance, haptic feedback can help make operators feel like they are actually there with the robot, opening doors, unscrewing blast caps, cutting wires, or removing batteries. Coupled with intuitive controls and advanced video feedback, the goal of this project is to provide users with the sensation that the robot is an extension of their body, all from a safe distance.

In designing a tracking algorithm, utilizing several different features, e. g., color histogram, gradient histogram and other object descriptors, is preferable to increase robustness of tracking performance. In this paper, we propose a multiple feature fusion framework to improve the tracking by assigning appropriate weights to individual features. The feature weights are optimally obtained by a waterfilling procedure that maximizes mutual information between target object features and query features. Especially, in this paper, we focus on a particle filter tracking implementation of the multiple feature fusion framework. Our experiments show that object tracking with multiple features outperforms single feature based tracking methods and illustrates that the proposed optimal feature weighting increases robustness of multiple-feature based tracking performance.

The intelligent Ground Vehicle Competition (IGVC) is one of four, unmanned systems, student competitions that were founded by the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI). The IGVC is a multidisciplinary exercise in product realization that challenges college engineering student teams to integrate advanced control theory, machine vision, vehicular electronics and mobile platform fundamentals to design and build an unmanned system. Teams from around the world focus on developing a suite of dual-use technologies to equip ground vehicles of the future with intelligent driving capabilities. Over the past 18 years, the competition has challenged undergraduate, graduate and Ph.D. students with real world applications in intelligent transportation systems, the military and manufacturing automation. To date, teams from over 75 universities and colleges have participated. This paper describes some of the applications of the technologies required by this competition and discusses the educational benefits. The primary goal of the IGVC is to advance engineering education in intelligent vehicles and related technologies. The employment and professional networking opportunities created for students and industrial sponsors through a series of technical events over the four-day competition are highlighted. Finally, an assessment of the competition based on participation is presented.
