This paper presents a new solution to haptic based teleoperation to control a large-sized slave robot for space exploration, which includes two specially designed haptic joysticks, a hybrid master-slave motion mapping method, and a haptic feedback model rendering the operating resistance and the interactive feedback on the slave side. Two devices using the 3 R and DELTA mechanisms respectively are developed to be manipulated to control the position and orientation of a large-sized slave robot by using both of a user's two hands respectively. The hybrid motion mapping method combines rate control and variable scaled position mapping to realize accurate and efficient master-slave control. Haptic feedback for these two mapping modes is designed with emphasis on ergonomics to improve the immersion of haptic based teleoperation. A stiffness estimation method is used to calculate the contact stiffness on the slave side and play the contact force rendered by using a traditional spring-damping model to a user on the master side stably. Experiments by using virtual environments to simulate the slave side are conducted to validate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed solution.

This paper presents a rapid and robust method to align large sets of range scans captured by a 3D scanner automatically. The method incorporates the color information from the range data into the pairwise registration. Firstly, it detects the features using SIFT (Scale-Invariant Feature Transform) on grayscale images generated from two range scans to align. Then a quasi-dense matching algorithm, based on the match propagation principle, is applied to specify the matching pixel pairs between two images. All matches obtained are mapped to 3D space but in different world coordinates, and filtered by the 3D geometry constraint discovered from the range data. The remaining set of point correspondences is used to estimate the rigid transformation. Finally, a modified ICP (Iterative Closest Point) algorithm is applied to refine the result. The paper also describes a framework to use this alignment method for object reconstruction. The reconstruction proceeds by acquiring several range scans with color information from different directions, following which pair-wise of range data are aligned with the above method selectively and iteratively. Then a model graph containing the correct pair-wise matches is created and a span tree specifying a complete model is constructed. Finally a global optimization is performed to refine the result. This reconstruction technique achieves a robust and high performance in the application of rebuilding the 3D models of culture heritages for virtual museum automatically. Copyright 2008 ACM.

An acceleration frequency response function (FRF) based model updating method is presented in this paper, which introduces Kriging model as metamodel into the optimization process instead of iterating the finite element analysis directly. The Kriging model is taken as a fast running model that can reduce solving time and facilitate the application of intelligent algorithms in model updating. The training samples for Kriging model are generated by the design of experiment (DOE), whose response corresponds to the difference between experimental acceleration FRFs and its counterpart of finite element model (FEM) at selected frequency points. The boundary condition is taken into account, and a two-step DOE method is proposed for reducing the number of training samples. The first step is to select the design variables from the boundary condition, and the selected variables will be passed to the second step for generating the training samples. The optimization results of the design variables are taken as the updated values of the design variables to calibrate the FEM, and then the analytical FRFs tend to coincide with the experimental FRFs. The proposed method is performed successfully on a composite structure of honeycomb sandwich beam, after model updating, the analytical acceleration FRFs have a significant improvement to match the experimental data especially when the damping ratios are adjusted.
