Abstract: Proximity sensing is of great importance for robot control during human–robot collaboration (HRC). Commonly used machine vision sensors or photodetectors are subjected to the light block ...

The SparkFun Ultrasonic Distance Sensor - TCT40 (sen-24805) a user-friendly upgrade to the popular HC-SR04 sensor, offers non-contact distance measurement from 2cm to 400cm with an accuracy of 3mm.

I purchased one of each of these cheap sensors recently from aliexpress for testing purposes. Compared with the ubiquitous HC-SR04 (*), I liked the idea of having a combined emitter/receiver, i.e.

I build robots that move, blink, and sometimes even creep you out. From animatronics to 3D printing experiments, I fuse mechanics, electronics, and creativity to bring ideas to life. Follow to see ...

Abstract: We present a method that enhances the safety and responsiveness of robotic manipulators by employing constrained Variable Admittance Control (VAC) in conjunction with proximity perception.

The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has decided to make it mandatory for Rs 500-crore real estate construction project sites to install air quality sensors that would provide real-time data on air ...
