Growing volumes of wood are being used in construction, interior architecture, and product design, resulting in increasing amounts of wood waste. Using this waste is challenging, because it is too labor-intensive to process large volumes of uneven wood pieces that vary in geometry, quality, and origin. …

This is a thesis on developing software that detects things using machine learning and computer vision algorithms. Furthermore, the application includes the use of RTDE to operate a robotic arm that can take the fruit and deliver it to a certain location.

Background: Impaired upper extremity function due to muscle paresis or paralysis has a major impact on independent living and quality of life (QoL). Assistive technology (AT) for upper extremity function (i.e. dynamic arm supports and robotic arms) can increase a client’s independence. Previous studies …

Dutch industrial manufacturers are confronted a new and promising industrial robot: the collaborative robot (cobot). These small robotic arms are revolutionary as they allow direct and safe interaction with production workers for the very first time. The direct interaction between production worker and …

Vanwege de vraag vanuit de grafische drukindustrie naar een machine die meerdere sleeves kan beplakken met platen, wil AV Flexologic een nieuwe machine realiseren en vervolgens op de markt introduceren. De te realiseren machine is de RoboCell welke sleeves en platen moet combineren tot sleeves met platen …

Research was conducted to enable remote control of a humanoid robotic arm using movements of the human arm. Several options for the measurement technique have been discussed, resulting in a proposal for usage of MARG sensor modules to measure human arm movement. The InvenSense MPU9250 sensors where used, …

During the research into smart industry, there has been looked at what smart industry means and how it is already applicable in the automation industry. There has been look at the software package Automation-ML and the standards that it uses. Furthermore, there has been looked at the application frame …
