In this paper, we assume the platform with visual observer is moved on flat ground and a constrained camera-platform configuration. The constrained camera-platform is used to simplify the camera motion model. Based on the assumption and simplified camera-platform configuration, the 3D camera motion can be separately estimated by planar region alignment between two frames. Firstly, a detected 2D motion between two frames is used to align corresponding planar regions, such an alignment or registration can removes the effects of camera rotation, and the resulting residual parallax displacement field between the two region-aligned images is an epipolar field centered at the FOE (Focus-of-Expansion). Then the camera translation can be recovered from the epipolar field. The camera rotation is recovered from the computed 3D translation and the detected 2D motion. The camera motion model is derived and represented by two parts, and a multistage ego-motion estimation process is introduced. Some experiments with real images demonstrate the robustness of the proposed motion estimation method.

This paper addresses the exploitation of the field emitting properties of carbon nanotubes for movement sensor applications. To utilize this transducer principle a well defined gap between the field emitting carbon nanotubes and the counter electrode must be formed. Three different methods to dissect the dielectrophoretically deposited carbon nanotubes in a reproducible way are presented.

A novel approach to estimate localizability for mobile robots is presented based on probabilistic grid map (PGM). Firstly, a static localizability matrix is proposed for off-line estimation over the priori PGM. Then a dynamic localizability matrix is proposed to deal with unexpected dynamic changes. These matrices describe both localizability index and localizability direction quantitatively. The validity of the proposed method is demonstrated by experiments in different typical environments. Furthermore, two typical localization-related applications, including active global localization and pose tracking, are presented for illustrating the effectiveness of the proposed localizability estimation method.

High performance path following control, especially straight line path tracking, is one of the most difficult problems in autonomous control of under-actuated ship. In this paper, we propose a straight line path following control algorithm by combining adaptive yaw angle feedback, back-stepping and acceleration feedback technique together. The most absorbing advantage of the proposed controller is that it not only reserves the good performance of back-stepping controller and bring much faster convergent rate, but also eliminates the disturbance impacts, which is very important in real applications. The simulation results with respect to a training ship model have shown the feasibility and validity of the proposed method.

Connectionist Central Pattern Generator models (CCPG) are helpful to understand how the CPG neural mechanism functions, and have relatively small complexity which makes them suitable for controlling snake-like robots. However, there are few CCPG models are constructed to generate the snake-like robot's three-dimensional gaits, which are important for adapation, and their gaits generation ability is also very inadequate. According to the CPG mechanism, a hierarchical CCPG model (HCCPG) with small complexity is proposed to implement the three-dimensional gaits better. The HCCPG has a two-layers structure, namely the basic rhythmic signal generation layer and the output signal modulation layer. The HCCPG can generate three-dimensional gaits well and is extendable. Based on the HCCPG, a three-dimensional gait control method is proposed. The simulations and experiments validate this method.
