This paper reports performance results of qualitative optical flow processing integrated in a fuzzy logic-based behavioral mobile robot control system. The quality and noise robustness of qualitative optical flow processing is improved by a novel optical flow outlier detection filter. This filter performs a qualitative detection of outliers based on comparison between an optical flow vector and the average value of an optical flow pattern related to the considered vector. The performance of qualitative optical flow processing is tested and demonstrated successfully through experiments in a real office environment.

The main idea behind this project is to provide a unified platform which will cover a complete process for embedded systems learning. A modular approach is considered for skills practice through supporting individualization in learning. This platform shall facilitate a novel development of universal approach in creative learning environment and knowledge management that encourage use of ICT. New learning model is challenging the education of engineers in embedded systems design through real-time experiments that stimulate curiosity with ultimate goal to support students to understand and construct their personal conceptual knowledge based on experiments. In addition to the technological approach, the use of cognitive theories on how people learn will help students to achieve a stronger and smarter adaptation of the subject. Applied methodology will be evaluated from the scientific point of view in parallel with the implementation in order to feedback results to the R&D.
If potential contributors leading to system failure can be identified when a scientific workflow is modeled, a lot of system weaknesses may thus be revealed and improved. In this paper, we first identify a number of d...

In this work we focus on the topology control problem for robotic networks. In particular, we assume agents to be equipped with limited field of view sensors. As a consequence, directed graphs are required to model the robot-to-robot interaction. This significantly limits the applicability of algorithms developed for undirected graphs. In that view, we propose an auction-based solution for the decentralized estimation of an approximated minimum (in terms of number of links and in terms of a global cost function) strongly connected directed graph. This represents the first step towards the development of a connectivity maintenance framework for directed graphs. A theoretical analysis along with numerical simulations are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
This paper overviews recent advances in the field of switched fuzzy systems, switched systems whose subsystems are fuzzy systems, followed by the comparative study for this kind of systems. Starting with the basic ide...

The problem of mobile robot navigation is a broad topic and it covers a large spectrum of different methods and technologies. In this paper we will present the new concept for local navigation. The concept is based on object identification technique by means of origin fragment identification algorithm (ICPF). The main idea, theory and practical examples of object identification using ICPF are presented as main goal of the paper. One can use it for robot location and as support information in case of following local path planning. We also sketch in two different possibilities for image data measuring. The post-process of the antecedent steps can be local path planning of course.

Within this paper, we will describe a grid concept to realize a universal remote lab infrastructure as well as different operation modes based on this concept. This new infrastructure consists of three parts: an internal serial remote lab bus, a bus protection unit to interface the remote lab bus and to protect it from misuse and damage as well as a protection unit, which protects the physical systems (the electro-mechanical models in our remote lab) against deliberate damage or accidentally wrong control commands and which offers different access and control mechanisms. The interconnection between the Web-control units and the selected physical system during a remote lab work session (experiment) as well as the user management is done by the lab server, which also handles the webcams. The implemented remote lab infrastructure is based on the iLab architecture of the MIT, which allows to interconnect remote labs and to exchange remote lab experiments among different universities worldwide.
