Niet alleen in de (gezondheids)zorg voor bijvoorbeeld ouderen of mensen met een autismespectrumstoornis worden dieren ingezet. Ook in de veiligheidszorg zijn animal assisted interventions (AAI’s) populair. Denk maar eens aan programma’s met dieren in detentie of aan de inzet van dieren bij mensen die …

Met toestemming overgenomen uit Microniek, 2020, nr. 5 A stereo-vision system that was developed for application in mobile robots turned outto lack depth resolution in the background of the pictures. A simulator was built togain understanding of the parameters that influence depth estimation in stereo …

Using the latest industrial robot technology, the collaborative robot (cobot), industrial manufacturers work towards high-mix low-volume production systems that could satisfy a diversifying customer demand. As the utilization of the cobot’s potential depends on the dynamic interaction with operators, …

Robots have been found to be effective tools for programming instruction, although it is not yet clear why students learn more using robots as compared to receiving ‘traditional’ programming instruction. In this study, 121 nine- to twelveyear-old children received a programming training in pairs, in …

The estimation of the pose of a differential drive mobile robot from noisy odometer, compass and beacon distance measurements is studied. The estimation problem, which is a state estimation problem with unknown input, is reformulated into a state estimation problem with known input and a process noise …

The current configuration of the robotic stearate coating process only supports certain bead sizes, the rest is coated manually. The current configuration lacks capacity and requires a lot of maintenance due to the age of the used robots. To be able to support all bead sizes, increase the daily capacity, …
