In recent years, underwater robots have been an essential focus of marine science and technology applications. Whether it is the application of military tasks or general civil affairs, underwater robots have played a significant role. For example, unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) can work in the sea for a long time, have high maneuverability, and perform various underwater tasks. There are many subcategories of UUVs, such as autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), and autonomous and remotely operated vehicles (ARVs) (Kong et al., 2020).
近年来,水下机器人已成为海洋科技应用的一个重要热点。无论是军事任务还是一般民政的应用,水下机器人都发挥了重要作用。例如,无人水下航行器(uuv)可以在海上工作很长时间,具有高机动性,并执行各种水下任务。uuv有许多子类别,如自主水下航行器(auv)、远程操作航行器(rov)以及自主和远程操作航行器(arv) (Kong et al., 2020)。

This article documents the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) robotics summer camp held in June 2022, which is part of the outreach activities of two National Science Foundation-funded projects at Oklahoma State University. This STEM summer camp aims to address the challenges in organizing robot-centered STEM summer camps for students in kindergarten through 12th grade (K–12). We explored various new ways to prepare and conduct the summer camp.

Navigation is an essential skill for autonomous robots, and it becomes a cumbersome task in human-populated environments. Robots need to perform their tasks without disturbing the people around them. Robots navigating in a human-populated environment need to ensure people’s comfort and safety.

Ships have many uses in human social life and can be used for various purposes, such as the transportation of people and goods, military affairs, and scientific research. Generally, major ship accidents rarely occur because ships’ design and construction are completed in strict compliance with relevant regulations and international standards (Pan et al., 2020).

Canada has a strong presence in space robotics, and Mission SpaceWalker (MSW) is a group of ambitious young women who are leaning into Canadian robotics excellence through their investigation of how electroadhesive (EA) robots behave in reduced gravity, all while introducing a new testing procedure for rovers and adhesive space robotics. As an undergraduate student team at the University of Alberta, MSW has been chosen to fly their payload as part of the Canadian Reduced Gravity Experiment Challenge (CAN-RGX) organized by Students for the Exploration and Development of Space Canada (SEDS-Canada), the National Research Council of Canada, and the Canadian Space Agency. The annual competition is open nationwide to university students, soliciting participating groups to create a payload to be tested onboard a parabolic flight. The experiment will consist of an automated system contained within a Pelican case, featuring a mechanical design that will obtain footage of two robots on conductive and nonconductive surfaces. It will log data from onboard sensors to provide insight into the performance of the EA pads on both surfaces. The payload is expected to be flown on a parabolic flight during the CAN-RGX campaign in the 2023 calendar year.
