In this paper the kinematic design of CaPaMan (Cassino Parallel Manipulator) is used to deduce other new architectures for parallel manipulators through an approach that is based on kinematic inversion concept. Kinematic designs are outlined with basic considerations for both design and operation feasibility.

This contribution reveals some problems concerning the use of holonic manufacturing systems. These regard both the design and implementation phases and they can be discovered since the system analysis. A new Petri net based model is proposed for the holonic system organized according to the Contract Net Protocol coordination scheme. Certain weaknesses are discovered both at the model and implementation levels and some solutions are sketched. These are illustrated with a case from an experimental manufacturing environment that could exemplify the problems regarding the resource sharing and holons' coordination.

Decision making can be regarded as an outcome of a cognitive process leading to the selection of a course of action among several alternatives. With the latest advances in decision making systems it is important to study which methods provide better results and in which fields, contexts. By creating a hybrid approach to decision making we can outline the performance and deviations between different methods, but more importantly we establish the foundation for building a hybrid decision making system. With the analysis of the decision making methods, we are able to build a hybrid decision making system, which is a composition and cooperation of different methods and uses the optimal methods for specific contexts. In this paper the author presents an approach to creating and evaluating hybrid decision making systems.

Three phase permanent magnet synchronous motors are widely used in high performance industrial drives. The torque produced by these machines has a pulsating component which is a function of actual rotor position. The main part of this component is usually cogging torque. A variety of special machine construction techniques exist for reducing cogging torque which is affected greatly by mechanical misalignments. If the manufacturing tolerances are not well defined cogging may vary in a wide range. If analysis is made by several cases of each kind of mechanical misalignments, manufacturing tolerances can be defined.

In this paper we describe the use of a standard game console joystick, namely the Nintendo WIIMOTE, for an active real-time 3D marker tracking. We show the ease of applicability of inexpensive and robust standard game controllers for 3D object tracking, e.g. to track an infrared source in 3D space. Recovering the 3D information using stereo vision is still one of the major research areas in computer vision and has given rise to a great deal of literature in the recent past. In this paper we present the method for calibrating a WIIMOTE stereo pair without knowing any parameters of the build-in infrared cameras in advance. The results are two matrices which includes both the intrinsic and extrinsic parameters for left and right cameras. The comparison between the stereo and the mono WIIMOTE tracking system is presented. Furthermore, to demonstrate the use of the WIIMOTE stereo system we considered the task of throwing a ball with robotic hand, to the target identified with an infrared source. The throwing task was divided into two separate parts: the tracking part and the throwing part.

The work presented in this paper is focused on movement recognition as a first step to achieve the automation of a two-arm-surgical-robotic-system in the laparoscopic surgery environment. In order to accomplish coordination between the surgeon and the robotic assistant, a system able to recognize and differentiate between certain standard maneuvers should be developed. The new user interface is based on this maneuvers recognition system, which models the surgeon behavior. This interface consists of the data acquisition and the recognition system. The maneuvers are modeled with Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) and are trained off-line. The system has been tested in some in-vitro experiments as in tissue cutting, suturing and transporting.

With the advancement of autonomous vehicles the problem of navigation in rough terrain is becoming an interesting problem to tackle. One possible solution that has already been demonstrated for navigation on flat surfaces has been the use of Particle Swarm Optimization, PSO. This document aims to present results obtained from experiments gauging the adequacy of PSO for path planning in rough terrain environments. The PSO algorithm is set up to choose paths composed of straight line segments. A Controller is then used in a simulator to guide our vehicle along each path and the quality of the route traversed is then used to evaluate each path. Two different environments are prepared and solved for and the result for each environment is presented. It is shown that PSO is indeed applicable for use in path planning for rough environments.

Nowadays, companies in the abattoir and meat-cutting sector are encountering increasing difficulties in meeting their labor requirements. Therefore, the mechanization of these professions has become essential. The first part of this article involves on in-depth study of operators' expertise, so as to translate their actions into automatable operative tasks and to identify the constraints of robotization. We detail more particularly a cutting strategy using a bone as a guide which shows the complexity of the process. The analysis of the cutting and task constraint parameters involves the use of a kinematically redundant robotized cell with force control. Then the cell model is developed, and experimentation is performed. This study was carried out within the framework of the SRDViand project in cooperation with meat industry partners.

This paper presents an application that is designed to control the process of paper manufacturing in order to obtain a constant thickness for the resulting paper. The application teaches a system to control a thickness regulating member used in the manufacture of sheet products. The position of the slice lip is controlled by a number of actuators positioned along the slice lip and connected to it and to the head box. The system is composed of a Siemens S7–300 PLC connected to a Daytronic equipment. Also a TP270 operating panel is connected in order to allow users to view the state of the entire system and also set the position of the actuators.
