This paper focuses on bridge inspections performed by intelligent unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). For this, small data loggers are placed by the UAVs at the bridge, which have to be removed later. In our previous work we presented the magnetic localization method SRIOD, which not only detects the center of the data logger but also its orientation. In this work we proof SRIOD in a real application and let a robotic arm locate a magnetic target. The hardware involved is presented including the control strategy for the robot. The motions of the robot and the magnetic target are captured with 12 Optitrack cameras in order to validate the localization quality.
Joint robots are widely used in various industries, such as aviation, aerospace, and automotive manufacturing. The performance degradation of servo motors can significantly affect the overall performance of the robots...

This paper proposes some methods to improve the fault-tolerance in distributed systems specifically in deterministic situations by distributed decision-making and coordination. Providing a distributed system with fault tolerance is a feasible but hard problem due to the intrinsic aspects of such systems such as: independency, unpredictability and communication problem. A multi-agent system as an instance of distributed system, can handle different kinds of fault by using traditional fault tolerance techniques. But what focused in this paper are agent-based techniques. In fact proposed methods are based on agent-based help provision by distributed cooperation among helper agents. The helpers try to tune their normal roles such that they can undertake the faulty agents' tasks too. These helpers go through a sub-optimal task selection algorithm, to decide whom to help. It is important to remark that there is no explicit interaction; instead they coordinate their decisions implicitly by adopting the most appropriate task in terms of their speed, relative reliability and the task's criticality coefficient. Proposed ideas are tested on a DCS-like tested to improve its fault tolerance. The results illustrate the effectiveness of the approaches in comparison to the case of no help situation and the case of using purely redundant components.

A visual feedback learning control algorithm is proposed for a robot manipulator equipped with joint position servos employing fuzzy-membership-function-based neural networks (FMFNN), where weightings of FMFNN's are adjusted in such a way that the robot manipulator with an eye in hand is capable of not only tracking a moving object along the line of sight but also stopping in front of a static object, wherever it is. The training mechanisms of FMFNN are extended to be applied to the control of dynamic systems. To show the validity of the proposed algorithm, several numerical examples are illustrated for a robot manipulator equipped with position servos.< >

In this paper we extend our previous work on UAV localization based on the magnetic field strength. The method is based on a magnetic flux density distribution in vicinity of two very long, thin and parallel transmission lines. An UAV is equipped with 4 magnetometers, positioned so that obtained measurements give unique solution to an optimization problem used to find relative position and orientation of the UAV with respect to conductors. Several sets of experiments, undertaken on a laboratory setup, confirmed validity of the method for both solutions - analytical and numerical optimization. Obtained results, compared with high precision motion capture system, are within range of standard RTK positioning.
