  • Cockroach Controlled Mobile Robot – www.freshcreation.nl

    By Garnet Hertz (2005) “Cockroach Controlled Mobile Robot” is an experimental mechanism that uses a living Madagascan hissing roach atop a modified trackball to control a three-wheeled robot. If the roach moves left, the robot moves left. Infrared sensors also provide navigation feedback to the roach, striving to create a pseudo-intelligent system with the roach…

  • Autonomous reactive navigation of a mobile robot with PTGs

    Reactive navigation of a mobile robot with Parameterized Trajectory Generators (PTGs) enables using simple obstacle avoidance methods on any-shape, kinematically constrained robots. The video has 3 experiments: PART 1: Our navigation method, using several PTGs simultaneously. PART 2: Comparison to the “classical” approach (only circular arcs). The navigator performs very poorly in this case in…

  • Mobile robots for digitalization of environements

    Digital 3D models of the environment are needed in rescue and inspection robotics, facility managements and architecture. This video presents an automatic system for gaging and digitalization of 3D indoor environments. It consists of an autonomous mobile robot (KURT3D / Ariadne), a reliable 3D laser range finder and three elaborated software modules. The first module,…
