Reconfigurable hydrostatics: Toward versatile and efficient load-bearing robotics
Jeff Denis, Frederic Laberge, Jean-Sebastien Plante +1
Wearable and legged robot designers face multiple challenges when choosing actuation. Traditional fully actuated designs using electric motors are multifunctional but oversized and…
Influence Vectors Control for Robots Using Cellular-like Binary Actuators
Alexandre Girard, Jean-Sébastien Plante
Robots using cellular-like redundant binary actuators could outmatch electric-gearmotor robotic systems in terms of reliability, force-to-weight ratio and cost. This paper presents…
Memory Management for Real-Time Appearance-Based Loop Closure Detection
Mathieu Labbé, François Michaud
Loop closure detection is the process involved when trying to find a match between the current and a previously visited locations in SLAM. Over time, the amount of time required to…
Online Global Loop Closure Detection for Large-Scale Multi-Session Graph-Based SLAM
Mathieu Labbe, François Michaud
For large-scale and long-term simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), a robot has to deal with unknown initial positioning caused by either the kidnapped robot problem or mul…
Appearance-Based Loop Closure Detection for Online Large-Scale and Long-Term Operation
Mathieu Labbé, François Michaud
In appearance-based localization and mapping, loop closure detection is the process used to determinate if the current observation comes from a previously visited location or a new…
Soft Two-degree-of-freedom Dielectric Elastomer Position Sensor Exhibiting Linear Behavior
Alexandre Girard, Jean-Philippe Lucking Bigué, Benjamin M. O'Brien +3
Soft robots could bring robotic systems to new horizons, by enabling safe human-machine interaction. For precise control, these soft structures require high level position feedback…
A Dual-Motor Actuator for Ceiling Robots with High Force and High Speed Capabilities
Ian Lalonde, Jeff Denis, Mathieu Lamy +1
Patient transfer devices allow to move patients passively in hospitals and care centers. Instead of hoisting the patient, it would be beneficial in some cases to assist their movem…
RTAB-Map as an Open-Source Lidar and Visual SLAM Library for Large-Scale and Long-Term Online Operation
Mathieu Labbé, François Michaud
Distributed as an open source library since 2013, RTAB-Map started as an appearance-based loop closure detection approach with memory management to deal with large-scale and long-t…
