It is known that the cells responds to external mechanical stimulations. Although the effectiveness of vibrational stimulation for the osteoanagenesis has been reported, the clarification of detailed mechanism for this phenomenon is insufficient. In this study, a micro device has been developed to evaluate the cell dynamics and responses to vibrations. The micro device has an array of moving micro stages which have transparent 5 µm thick thin film to enable them to observe the cell responses to vibrational stimulations by using an optical microscope. The moving micro stages are moved with a needle actuated by piezo actuator. Microfabrication processes, such as conventional photolithography, lift-off, and sacrificial layer etching, were used to fabricate the micro device. We designed two types of concepts for supporting and vibrating moving micro stages. Prototypes were fabricated and evaluated under vibrational conditions. Proposed design with the moving micro stages vibrating perpendicular to the beams generated simple linear oscillation without rotation. It was verified that the fabricated micro stage could be vibrated at the acceleration amplitude of 0.1 and 0.2 G with frequency 15, 45, and 90 Hz.
众所周知,细胞对外界的机械刺激有反应。虽然已有文献报道了振动刺激对骨增生的疗效,但对其具体机制的阐明尚不充分。在这项研究中,开发了一种微型装置来评估细胞的动力学和振动响应。该微装置有一系列可移动的微台,微台上有5µm厚的透明薄膜,可以通过光学显微镜观察细胞对振动刺激的反应。移动的微级是由压电驱动器驱动的针移动的。微加工工艺,如传统的光刻,提升和牺牲层蚀刻,被用来制造微器件。我们设计了两种概念,用于支撑和振动移动微舞台。在振动条件下制作了原型并进行了评估。提出了运动微级与梁垂直振动产生简单线性振荡而不旋转的设计方案。实验结果表明,所制备的微级可以在加速度振幅为0.1和0.2 G、频率为15、45和90 Hz的情况下振动。

This study discusses component separation using a microfluidic device. Based on the separation principle, a method was adopted to generate an external force due to centrifugal force in a spirally designed channel. In this study, four types of polystyrene particles with different diameters ranging within 1–45 µm were used, and the separation performance was evaluated for each particle size. The centrifugal force increased as the flow velocity in the channel increased; however, this time, the test was conducted with the flow rate, which is an input parameter fixed at 100 µL/min. The results of the micro-channel observation using a high-speed camera indicated that the particle density might be a factor in the decrease in separation efficiency. Therefore, by conducting tests at three different particle densities, we were able to experimentally investigate the change in separation efficiency based on the particle size and density. In this study, we considered the separation efficiency due to the size and density of the particle diameter along with its application to an onsite-type separation device.
本研究讨论了用微流控装置进行组分分离。基于分离原理,采用了一种在螺旋通道内由离心力产生外力的方法。在本研究中,使用了4种不同粒径的聚苯乙烯颗粒,粒径范围在1-45µm之间,并对每种粒径的分离性能进行了评价。离心力随通道内流速的增大而增大;但是,这次测试的流量是一个固定的输入参数,为100µL/min。高速相机微通道观测结果表明,颗粒密度可能是导致分离效率下降的一个因素。因此,通过在三种不同的颗粒密度下进行测试,我们能够实验地研究基于颗粒大小和密度的分离效率的变化。在本研究中,我们考虑了颗粒直径的大小和密度对分离效率的影响,并将其应用于现场式分离装置。

We conducted a study on the user experience design process ((i) research and analysis, (ii) concept design, and (iii) prototyping) to identify the requirements for a robot for supporting construction management. From this study, seven hypotheses were obtained for these requirements. One horizontal prototype satisfying three of these hypothesized requirements and three local prototypes satisfying one hypothesis each were created. The prototypes were evaluated in the field. The remaining one hypothesis was not tested at this time due to the longer trial period required for validation. It would be more appropriate to validate it during the evaluation of the vertical prototype or the system as a whole. Based on the results of the field evaluation, it was made clear that the hypothesized six requirements are reasonable requirements for a robot to support construction management.

Visual Emotion Recognition Through Multimodal Cyclic-Label Dequantized Gaussian Process Latent Variable Model 基于多模态循环标签去量化高斯过程潜变量模型的视觉情绪识别

A multimodal cyclic-label dequantized Gaussian process latent variable model (mCDGP) for visual emotion recognition is presented in this paper. Although the emotion is followed by various emotion models that describe cyclic interactions between them, they should be represented as precise labels respecting the emotions’ continuity. Traditional feature integration approaches, however, are incapable of reflecting circular structures to the common latent space. To address this issue, mCDGP uses the common latent space and the cyclic-label dequantization by maximizing the probability function utilizing the cyclic-label feature as one of the observed features. The likelihood maximization problem provides limits to preserve the emotions’ circular structures. Then mCDGP increases the number of dimensions of the common latent space by translating the rough label to the detailed one by label dequantization, with a focus on emotion continuity. Furthermore, label dequantization improves the ability to express label features by retaining circular structures, making accurate visual emotion recognition possible. The main contribution of this paper is the implementation of feature integration through the use of cyclic-label dequantization.
提出了一种用于视觉情感识别的多模态循环标签去量化高斯过程潜变量模型。尽管情绪之后有各种描述它们之间循环相互作用的情绪模型,但它们应该被表示为尊重情绪连续性的精确标签。然而,传统的特征集成方法无法将圆形结构反映到公共潜在空间中。为了解决这个问题,mCDGP使用了公共潜在空间和循环标签去量化,通过最大化利用循环标签特征作为观察特征之一的概率函数。可能性最大化问题为保持情绪的循环结构提供了限制。然后,mCDGP通过标签去量化将粗糙标签转化为详细标签,增加共同潜在空间的维数,重点关注情感的连续性。此外,标签去量化通过保留圆形结构提高了表达标签特征的能力,使准确的视觉情感识别成为可能。本文的主要贡献是通过使用循环标签去量化实现特征集成。

This study aims to realize a precision grasp of unknown-shaped objects. Precision grasping requires a detailed understanding of the surface shapes such as concavity and convexity. If an accurate shape model is not given in advance, it must be addressed by sensing. We have proposed a method for recognizing detailed object shapes using proximity sensors equipped on each fingertip of a multi-fingered robot hand. Direct sensing of the object’s surface from the fingertips enables both avoidance of unintended collision during the approach process and recognition of surface profiles for use in planning and executing stable grasping. This paper introduces local surface curvature estimation to improve the accuracy of local surface recognition. We propose practical and accurate models to estimate local curvature based on various characteristic tests on the proximity sensor and to estimate the distance to the nearest point. In actual experiments, it was shown that it was possible to estimate the position of the nearest point with a mean error of less than 2 mm and to predict grasping stability in reasonable real-time for the object shape.
本研究旨在实现对未知形状物体的精确抓取。精确抓取需要对曲面形状如凹凸有详细的了解。如果事先没有给出准确的形状模型,则必须通过传感来解决。我们提出了一种方法来识别详细的物体形状使用接近传感器装备在多指机器人的每个指尖。从指尖直接感知物体表面,既可以避免在接近过程中发生意外碰撞,也可以识别表面轮廓,用于规划和执行稳定抓取。为了提高局部曲面识别的精度,本文引入了局部曲面曲率估计。我们提出了实用和准确的模型来估计局部曲率基于各种特性测试的接近传感器和估计到最近点的距离。在实际实验中表明,该方法可以在平均误差小于2mm的情况下估计出最近点的位置,并可以合理实时地预测物体形状的抓取稳定性。

Various devices have been developed that use stretching silicone sheets to evaluate cellular mechanotransduction. However, few studies have explored predefined cell alignments using mechanical stimuli for engineering applications, including cell sheets and drug screenings. Therefore, we proposed a magnetically driven cell-stretching device for predefined cell alignment in vitro , which consisted mainly of a circular silicone membrane with a neodymium magnet and standard cell culture dish. As the proposed device was incorporated into a cell culture dish, there may be a small risk of contamination in long-term incubation experiments. The device was fabricated by assembling a polydimethylsiloxane membrane and silicone ring. The fabricated device showed that the membrane strain increased with increasing voltage application to the electromagnet, and indicated that cell alignment occurs when strain exceeds 0.8%. Following cyclic stimulation of cells adhered to a membrane for 4 h in a CO 2 incubator with 1.05% strain at 0.1 Hz, cell alignment with the predefined direction increased by 20.4% compared to that before stimulation. The findings imply that the proposed device may be utilized for predefined cell alignment.
已经开发了各种设备,使用拉伸硅胶片来评估细胞机械转导。然而,很少有研究利用机械刺激探索用于工程应用的预定义细胞排列,包括细胞片和药物筛选。因此,我们提出了一种用于体外细胞预先定位的磁性细胞拉伸装置,该装置主要由带有钕磁铁的圆形硅胶膜和标准细胞培养皿组成。由于所提出的装置被纳入细胞培养皿中,因此在长期孵育实验中可能存在小的污染风险。该装置由聚二甲基硅氧烷膜和硅环组装而成。实验结果表明,薄膜应变随外加电压的增加而增加,当外加电压超过0.8%时,薄膜发生细胞排列。在0.1 Hz、1.05%浓度的co2培养箱中,将细胞粘附在膜上4小时,循环刺激后,细胞与预定方向的排列比刺激前增加了20.4%。研究结果表明,所提出的设备可用于预定义的细胞对齐。

This paper proposes a method to improve the accuracy of 3D measurement of a stereo camera by marking a measured object using a line laser. Stereo cameras are commonly used for 3D measurement, but the accuracy of 3D measurement is affected by the amount of texture. Therefore, a new measurement system combining a stereo camera and a line laser is developed. The accuracy of 3D measurement with a stereo camera is improved by using a line laser to mark arbitrary points on the measured object and measuring the marked points, regardless of the amount of texture on the measured object. Because the laser is only used to mark points on the measurement target, calibration is not required with the stereo camera. Experimental evaluation showed that our proposed method can obtain millimeters.
提出了一种利用直线激光对被测物体进行标记,提高立体相机三维测量精度的方法。立体相机通常用于三维测量,但三维测量的精度受纹理量的影响。为此,研制了一种立体相机与直线激光器相结合的新型测量系统。采用直线激光在被测物体上标记任意点并测量被标记点,而不考虑被测物体上纹理的多少,从而提高了立体相机三维测量的精度。由于激光仅用于标记测量目标上的点,因此不需要使用立体摄像机进行校准。实验结果表明,该方法可以获得毫米级的精度。

Smooth interactions between talkers can be realized by transmitting and receiving mutual video images and voices in remote communication. However, in such remote communication, it is difficult to generate a sense of unity and an interactive atmosphere because humans recognize screens as a boundary of the physical space. Therefore, it is essential to develop a communication system that can generate and share an interactive atmosphere and interaction-activated communication even if talkers are in remote places. In this study, we developed a speech-driven avatar robot system incorporating an estimation model that simulates the degree of activated communication based on the talker’s speech. The developed avatar robot system can visualize an interactive atmosphere while changing the complexion based on an estimated value.

在远程通信中,通过相互发送和接收视频图像和语音,可以实现通话者之间的顺畅交互。然而,在这种远程交流中,由于人们将屏幕视为物理空间的边界,因此很难产生一种统一感和互动氛围。因此,开发一种即使在遥远的地方也能产生和共享互动氛围和互动激活通信的通信系统是非常必要的。在这项研究中,我们开发了一个语音驱动的化身机器人系统,该系统结合了一个估计模型,该模型基于说话者的语音来模拟激活沟通的程度。开发的化身机器人系统可以在根据估计值改变肤色的同时,将互动氛围可视化。通过感官评价证明了所开发系统的有效性。

However, in such remote communication, it is difficult to generate a sense of unity and an interactive atmosphere because humans recognize screens as a boundary of the physical space. Therefore, it is essential to develop a communication system that can generate and share an interactive atmosphere and interaction-activated communication even if talkers are in remote places. In this study, we developed a speech-driven avatar robot system incorporating an estimation model that simulates the degree of activated communication based on the talker’s speech. The developed avatar robot system can visualize an interactive atmosphere while changing the complexion based on an estimated value.

Quadruped mammals can control the movement of their center of gravity when turning by skillfully utilizing their bodies to achieve adaptive turning movements. Interestingly, the low-speed turning behavior also changes depending on the animal’s morphology. Therefore, this study aims to understand the control algorithm of low-speed turning, which can reproduce the turning behavior according to the location of the center of gravity. Specifically, we constructed a control algorithm based on the knowledge that animals steer with the leg closest to the center of gravity and verified it with a quadruped robot whose center of gravity could be adjusted. Consequently, the behavior observed in animals was successfully reproduced, with a stable and large turning angle per time when the proposed control algorithm was used.
四足哺乳动物在转弯时可以熟练地利用身体来控制重心的移动,实现自适应的转弯动作。有趣的是,低速转弯行为也会根据动物的形态而变化。因此,本研究旨在了解低速转弯的控制算法,该算法可以根据重心位置再现转弯行为。具体来说,我们基于动物用离重心最近的腿来掌舵的知识构建了一种控制算法,并用重心可调节的四足机器人进行了验证。因此,该控制算法成功地再现了动物的行为,且每次的转角稳定且大。
