The article describes the problem of human stability research in an industrial exoskeleton. The task of ensuring safe walking and human stability in a robotic exoskeleton is relevant for the development of industry and industrial automation systems. A design scheme of a seven-branched exoskeleton of the lower extremities with controlled hinges is presented, and the equations of kinematics of the connections between the links are described. Special attention is paid to the description of the quasi-static walking mode, in which the projection of the center of mass of the exoskeleton moves along a separate smooth trajectory, which ensures stability at each moment of time. The description of walking modes in conditions of stability and gait modeling for various step parameters are given, numerical characteristics of the step parameters are established. An algorithm for numerical simulation of stable walking in an exoskeleton is proposed, and a promising direction in the field of studying dynamic gait is discussed.

Generative artificial intelligence (AI), particularly ChatGPT, is revolutionizing various sectors, from exercise applications to accounting software, politics, and pharmaceuticals. As versatile aerial vehicles, drones have broad applications in videography, military operations, and surveying. However, their programming and optimal utilization often require extensive training. This research tackles these challenges by utilizing ChatGPT's sophisticated logic and prompt training features to enable drones to operate autonomously in various settings, ranging from everyday tasks to emergencies like search and rescue missions. Enhancing Microsoft Research's PromptCraft robotics, the project integrates innovative algorithms and GPT-4-Vision, improving command efficiency, speed, and accuracy. This integration also leverages additional sensor data feedback, allowing the drones to process user prompts with enhanced contextual understanding. Initial results show a significant improvement in command response times and accuracy, enabling the drones to interpret and execute complex voice commands in various environments. This paper presents a multimodal framework that enriches the capabilities of voice-controlled robotic systems and broadens the scope of AI applications in real-time systems, laying the groundwork for customized AI-driven systems, including robots tailored for diverse applications and the shift towards AGI.

Existing lower limb rehabilitation simulators are used for continuous passive or active development of one or more joints. In this case, additional excess axial effects occur in the joints, for example, on the knee and/or hip joints. The rehabilitation apparatus presented in the work in the form of a flat manipulator - an exoskeleton, is equipped with two drives, one of which is combined with the axis of the human hip joint. This arrangement allows compensating for the influence of active and reactive forces acting on the hip joint, which is especially important in the presence of contracture and spasticity. The developed mathematical model describing the interaction of the exoskeleton and the human leg takes into account not only the kinematic and dynamic features of the movement of the links of the rehabilitation device and the patient, but also the parameters characterizing their force interaction, which allows synthesizing the parameters of the control system. As a result, two problems were solved: the synthesis of parameters of electric drives of the rehabilitation exoskeleton and the second - the control moment $M(t)$ is calculated according to the given laws of change of generalized coordinates $\varphi_{1}(t)$ . The obtained dependences of the power of electric drives installed in the hinges of the manipulator on time will ensure the accuracy of movements of the exoskeleton links when performing medical manipulations.

Processing of various origin non-stationary signals in control systems for robotic devices is an urgent problem. The use of the extended Kalman filter (EKF) for working with non-stationary signals, including signal filtering, is limited by the precise settings of the filter — the observed system model and the covariance matrices of the EKF algorithm, which requires the adaptability of the filter algorithm under conditions of an input rapidly changing noised non-stationary signal. In this regard, the paper proposes to use the system “extended Kalman filter — adaptive digital filter” (EKF-ADF system) for filtering of non-stationary signals, which is the EKF augmented with an adaptive digital filter with the NLMS (normalized least mean squares) adaptation algorithm in order to compensate for the error in the operation of the EKF when non-stationary signal filtering is performing. The study of the operation of the EKF-ADF system as a filter for non-stationary signals shows that under conditions of a significant noise applied on a non-stationary signal, the algorithm of the EKF-ADF system, in comparison with the EKF algorithm, which has settings similar to the EKF settings in the EKF-ADF system, possesses the highest values of the “signal-to-noise ratio” evaluation of filtering results. The EKF-ADF system can be used as a state observer of robotic devices, which is capable of operating under conditions of non-stationary processes.

Advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have transformed robotics by enabling systems to autonomously execute complex tasks with minimal human involvement. Traditional methods, however, often depend on costly hardware, continuous monitoring, and intricate software integration, which constrain scalability and widespread implementation. This research presents an innovative approach that combines vision-based large language models (LLMs) with zero-shot prompting to autonomously program robotic systems, including a humanoid robot equipped with dual manipulators. The proposed system harnesses contextual image data to efficiently generate task-specific code, eliminating the need for iterative corrections. Training is conducted through OpenAI's Assistant feature, utilizing documents predominantly comprising images, while continuous operation is facilitated by a self-looping mechanism. Experimental results highlight the system's capability to perform manipulator tasks with notable accuracy, paving the way for scalable, adaptive, and dynamic automation. This study addresses both practical and theoretical challenges in automation, providing a cost-effective framework for next-generation robotic systems.

Orbital services are becoming increasingly important. One of the fundamental engineering challenges to enable such services is to provide mechanical, data, power, thermal, and fluid connectivity for activities such as capture, repairing, upgrading, refueling, life extension, or deorbiting of space assets. This paper provides an overview of the elements used for connectivity, generically referred to as a "standard interface". An overview of interfaces defined for applications in grabbing, mechanical docking, fluid transfer for refueling, and multi-purpose interfaces is provided. A comparative analysis of the interfaces using mechanical criteria and performance characteristics helps to identify the current status and future challenges in this domain.
