Robotic Platform Is Open Sourced And User Friendly – Hackaday

Posted: September 27, 2022 at 8:59 am

Having a 3D printer or a CNC machine available for projects is almost like magic. Designing parts in software and having them appear on the workbench is definitely a luxury. But for a lot of us, these tools arent easily available and projects that use them can be out-of-reach. Thats why one of the major design goals of this robotics platform was to use as many off-the-shelf components as possible.

The robot is called the OpenScout and, as its name implies, intends to be a fully open-source robotics platform for a wide range of use cases. It uses readily-available aluminum extrusion as a frame, which bolts together without any other specialized tools like welders. The body of the robot is articulating, helping it navigate uneven terrain outdoors. The specifications also call for using an Arduino to drive the robot, although there is plenty of space in the robot body to house any robotics platform you happen to have on hand.

For anyone looking to get right into the useful work of what robots can do, rather than spending time building up a platform from scratch, this is an excellent project. Its straightforward and easy to build without many specialized tools. The unique articulating body design should make it effective in plenty of environments. If you do have a 3D printer, though, that opens up a lot of options for robotics platforms.

Cybernetics will drive the future of robotics – Times of India

Posted: at 8:59 am

The desire for gadgets or machines that can keep up with the challenges of todays world and increasingly function in simpler and smarter ways is evident. Automation and autonomy have enabled this by producing and delivering products and services that require the least amount of human intervention, making certain jobs easier than ever before even when information is incomplete and uncertain. The emergence of new service robots and their ongoing evolution into new applications has further facilitated the world of automation. Due to the dynamic nature of robotics, numerous application sectors are now using robotics to carry out predetermined tasks and enhance human efforts in both physical and cognitive ways. Robotics has fuelled task efficiency, dependability, and quality, all of which were earlier, products of a laborious procedure. Being a crucial component of automation, robotics is currently used in an ever-growing variety of fields, including manufacturing, transportation, healthcare & medical care, utilities, defence, facilities, operations, and more recently, information technology. According to reports, the Indian industrial robotics market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.3% between 2019-2024. With its growing industry applications and productivity benefits, the study of cybernetics is likely to be a vital element in the advancement of robotics.

What is Cybernetics and what makes it different from Artificial Intelligence (AI)?

Cybernetics is a branch of science that focuses on creating technologies that behave or think like humans by researching how electrical devices or machines and the human brain function to add value to the task to be performed. Cybernetics, one of the best workaround physical embodiment of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and predictive analysis and control, investigate underlying systems/structures, possibilities, and limitations of complex mechanisms, including robotics, and develops autonomous innovations that require minimal to no human interaction. AI and cybernetics are two different perspectives on intelligent systems or systems that may act to achieve a purpose. Making computers simulate intelligent behaviour using pre-stored world representations is the main goal of AI. In general, cybernetics is the study of how systems control themselves and can take actions autonomously based on environmental signals even when the information is minimal and subject to significant uncertainty or noise. These systems go beyond simple computation; they can also control biological (body temperature regulation), mechanical (engine speed regulation), social (managing a huge workforce), and economic (controlling a national economy) systems.

How does Cybernetics work?

Every cybernetic systems objective is to be set up so that its operations are linked in a variety of input-output system configurations which are normally driven with reference control signasl. This is achieved by employing feedback-based automatic closed-loop control systems can decide which behaviours should be changed, which actions should be tracked, how to compare the actions to the reference, and how to adapt the relevant behaviours in the most effective way. In natural cybernetic systems, this regulatory mechanism develops or organises by itself via self-learning. On the other hand, artificial cybernetic systems react or are influenced by human-implemented automatic control systems. Essential elements of cybernetic systems are sensors, the controller, actuators and the system to be controlled.

Cybernetic systems, both natural and artificial, are subject to the controller, which must possess all of the capabilities necessary for its functions to analyse and model the static and dynamic characteristics so it can understood and properly classified so that a appropriate controller can be developed. The system starts to act in a goal-oriented way once the model and controller are coupled. The process can adapt to changing situations where the model and controller changes to stay tuned to the changing system. A good example to consider is an auto-pilot for an aeroplane whose weight is changing due to the on-board feul being consumed causing the plans behaviour to change. In addition, the objective is to maintain all essential system properties in agreement with the reference input regardless ofsystem disturbances which could be severe gusts of wind or storms. The controller must be able to operate the system appropriately and change the relevant variables in order to maintain good and safe performances.

When the regulatory structure of the system notices an abnormality in its behaviour, it makes an effort to correct it by analysing the differences between its desired goal and the actual behaviour to alter controlling inputs to gthe system to make up for the discrepancies. This process of error discovery and correction is repeated as the now purposeful system starts to make advances toward achieving its goal.

Cybernetics in robotics

Cybernetics in robotics aims to use AI and machine learning in the sense-plan-act paradigm normally used to design robots so they can operate effectively in real-world scenarios. Getting a robot to understand and differentiate complex situations in everyday is extremely demanding and getting the situation awareness correctly identified is critical to ensuring the desired reference control signal can be identified for implementation. This can range from making sure an industrial robot identifies and picks up the correct item for the next stage of the manufacturing process from a selection of parts to ensuring the requests of the human to be served a variety of beverages will get the correct drink. Sensors and sensor systems which are correctly calibrated are essential for ensuring the situation awareness is achieved correctly and in real-time using AI-based models which can be learnt and applied in various situations such as driverless cars, medical robots, automated manufacturing and home care robots.

As per MarketStudy Oct. 2021 report, the industrial robotics market is expected to grow to $87.79 billion at a CAGR of 10.35%. Similarly the service and medical robotics sectors are expected to grow at fast rates.

LBX Food Robotics partners with UAE foundation to install Bake Xpress as part of Bread for All campaign – Vending Market Watch

Posted: at 8:59 am

LBX Food Robotics announced that The Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI) Foundation has installed custom Bake Xpress robotic hot food vending kiosks throughout Dubai, UAE, as a part of the MBRGI program to support citizens in need.

The custom Bake Xpress machines provide a selection of free local breads as well as the ability to make monetary donations. The first 10 machines launched in Dubai this month are the result of a two-year collaboration between LBX Food Robotics and the MBRGI Foundation to develop and customize the machines, with additional machines targeted for installation in the first quarter of 2023.

It was a privilege to partner with MBRGI to support their goals of providing a source of food to people who might otherwise go hungry, and we are delighted to see our technology leveraged in this unique way,"Benoit Herve, founder and CEO of LBX Food Robotics, said in the company announcement."This initial endowment effort is part of a larger-scale deployment of our technology in the Middle East, in support of the deeply held cultural traditions of philanthropy and community service. We can envision many uses for Bake Xpress because it provides such a unique way to deliver food. With 24/7 availability and minimal requirements for staff and space, the possibilities are virtually unlimited.

Herve added that a program similar to the one launched in Dubai is under development in the United States, with the intention of opening machines in 2023.

Bake Xpress is a robotic vending solution that freshly bakes foods on demand in its integrated smart oven. While the Bake Xpress menu can include a full menu ranging from pastries to meals, LBX customized the machines for MBRGI to dispense a selection of pita and local breads. Additionally, the Bake Xpress payment interface was adapted to the UAE banking system and all machine graphics, touchscreen content and instructions were translated into Arabic. With the addition of custom graphics to the machines exterior and photos of the available foods on the interactive touchscreen, the machines are an easily recognizable part of the MBRGIs overall campaign to support citizens in need.

More information on the joint effort is available at http://www.lebreadxpress.com/lbx-in-dubai.

Drones, robotics and 3-D printing: Middle school students learning about STEM fields through Betabox Learning this week – WLTX.com

Posted: at 8:59 am

Betabox Learning brings STEM opportunities to students in the southeast. This week, it's teaching each student at Ebenezer Middle School about drones and robotics.

SUMTER, S.C. Students at Ebenezer Middle School are flying drones and driving robotic cars while learning about science, technology, engineering and math this week. Betabox Learning is bringing the STEM curriculum to schools in the southeast, and will be at the Sumter middle school until Thursday through funding from the South Carolina Department of Education.

"Thats where the world is going now," said Ebenezer Principal Bertha Timmons. "Were having the kids to be engaged in science, technology, engineering math and all. And lots of the jobs are related in that area too."

Timmons explains thats why its important for students to learn about STEM opportunities early.

"Not only is it hands-on, but its hands-on and its minds-on," she expanded. "And as long as students can really identify to what theyre doing and theyre enjoying it, then its just going to pique their interest, their learning.

Timmons tells me the goal is to help kids explore skills that can lead to more job opportunities and help them "compete in a global society" as technology evolves.

"To be able to give our students that experience is helping them prepare for whats coming," explained Bellania Hales, a science teacher at Ebenezer.

Hales says implementing curriculum like this helps make these opportunities more accessible.

"Being able to have an experience like this allows them to explore different concepts that they sometimes may not be allotted these opportunities," Hales detailed. "Theyre able to get experiences that they may not be able to get in the classroom, so being able to be exposed to drones and how to program different cars - robotic cars - it allows them to get outside experiences that they can use in different jobs, careers that they may explore later in life."

That accessibility is exactly what Betabox Founder Sean Maroni was trying to create.

"Opportunity is everywhere and there is genius everywhere, but the opportunities arent evenly distributed," he said. "Maybe one or two of these students will leave this experience saying Oh yeah, I could do this with my career."

Each student at the school will have an opportunity to test their hand at flying drones and operating robots. Before Betabox leaves, Maroni says it will provide lesson plans to teachers so they can continue implementing stem lessons throughout the year.

R&D led innovation is changing the landscape of robotics technology in healthcare – Times of India

Posted: at 8:59 am

The transformative potential of digital technology in global healthcare has been felt more than ever in the past decade. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI), big-data analytics, wearable technology and robotics is beginning to transform the healthcare landscape while raising the bar for caregiving. Robotics, in particular, has disrupted the healthcare sector with a range of benefits, and is creating a bold new era in personalized medicine,one where technology makes healthcare more efficient, accessible, and equitable.

Expanding accessibility and bringing healthcare to all

In India, nearly 70% of surgeries are performed as open procedures. 1 Globally about 60% of surgeries approximately are done as open procedures. The rest are minimally invasive surgeries (MIS), with only 3% of those done with the assistance of a robot. 1 MIS has significantly reduced postoperative recovery time compared to open surgeries as it offers fewer complications, shorter hospitals stay, and faster return to normal activities. 24 Adopting new technologies like robotics combined with AI can expand accessibility in regions where there is limited infrastructure and help steadily march towards fulfilling Indias health goals.

When it comes to robotic-assisted surgery, technology is evolving very quickly. For us, that means supporting with continuous R&D efforts on existing robotic-assisted surgery platforms that can help surgeons in the operating room and enhance patients procedural experience. When Medtronic set out to create a new soft-tissue robotic-assisted surgery system called Hugo robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) system, we met with hundreds of surgeons and hospital executives and their input helped us think differently and shaped some of our design choices, including the modular architecture and open console.

Driving innovation in surgeries through research and development

The advent of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) has provided an accurate, advanced way of conducting minimally invasive surgeries. At Medtronic, its our view that every patient around the globe deserves access to quality surgical care. We believe that robotic technology, paired with data and analytics, can help reduce unwanted variability and improve patient outcomes in the future. All this is possible with robust R&D at the core of each innovation.

For instance, the R&D team at Medtronic Engineering & Innovation Center (MEIC) in India played an important role in the launch of the Medtronic Hug RAS system. MEIC offers R&D solutions to all business groups of Medtronic globally. In the case of Hugo RAS system, the center contributed to a wide range of areas, including software, hardware, systems engineering and quality. And, despite an unprecedented global pandemic, the team was able to maintain critical momentum on the development of the system, which is now available for clinical use in India. The teams at MEIC continue to support our Surgical Robotics business as we pursue future innovations in this exciting space. We also have progressively developed and adopted our technology capabilities in data analytics to establish a robust data analytics practice and glean meaningful insights to help streamline processes for clinicians and standardize the quality of care.

Our focus on robotic-assisted surgery, along with data & analytics, will yield a continuous cadence of product innovations that solve problems and continue to redefine surgical standards. This is possible with teams encompassing engineering expertise in a wide range of areas, including software and hardware engineering design, systems engineering and software quality engineering. And our team in India is shaping that exciting future today.

To be able to innovate is one thing, but in healthcare, its critical to keep the patient and end user at the center of all that we do, to create technology that is meaningful and solves problems.

Schneider to partner with Torc Robotics on autonomous truck pilot – Transport Dive

Posted: at 8:59 am

Dive Brief:

Torcs deal with Schneider National is one of many tech and carrier partnerships popping up in the industry as companies push to get autonomous trucking technology on the road.

Schneider National has been adding autonomous partners to its operations for years. The carrier launched a pilot with Aurora in August to haul freight between Dallas and Houston, and last year TuSimple announced Schneider National as one of its customers.

Torc currently runs pilots in NewMexico and Texas, with plans to expand,Torc Chief Strategy Officer Andrew Culhane said in a statement to Transport Dive. While we are not currently disclosing specifics on areas of pilot operations, these operations will expand beyond those two, Culhane said.

Schneider National will work with the Virginia-based tech company all the way through commercialization, according to a Torc spokesperson.

The new pilot will include two or more Torc employees in each cab, one of whom will be an experienced and trained safety driver behind the wheel at all times. The pilot will launch in the coming weeks in the southwest U.S., the company said in a statement.

Robotics: Enhancing veterans home residents’ health with robots – The Chief News

Posted: at 8:59 am

What researchers find out about the use of robots in an Oregon project, could be used to enhance health care for veterans and others in Columbia County.

Oregon State University researchers are partnering with the Edward C. Allworth Veterans Home in Lebanon, Oregon. The project is a federally funded effort to see if robots can improve residents health and wellness by engaging them in physical and mental exercise.

OSU College of Engineering Assistant Professor of Robotics Naomi Fitter poses with robots for this photo.

Naomi Fitter, assistant professor of robotics in the OSU College of Engineering, is leading the $800,000 study, funded by the National Science Foundations National Robotics Initiative through the National Institutes of Healths National Institute on Aging.

The exact nature of the study will take shape after interviews with veterans home staff and residents are completed, Fitter said. At this stage of the project, Fitter is envisioning studying physical therapy regimens and other physical and cognitive exercise routines game-ified, enticing and entertaining being led by a human-sized robot.

The home already has virtual reality setups as part of its physical therapy facilities, Fitter said. We want to see if a physically present robot agent, there in the same space, can be an improvement. Residents can do their exercise routines with a buddy, possibly with more engagement, especially between physical therapists visits when human support for exercise practice is not typically available.

Fitter says a robot in common areas of the home could perform exercises with the veterans, encouraging them to be physically active in a group environment that also may benefit them socially.

And well strive toward minimizing the difficulty of operating the system because weve learned that can be a real pain point, a barrier to adoption, Fitter said. Weve also learned that physical robots have more clout and motivational ability compared to virtual reality systems, or tablets or computers.

In addition, the researchers will look at whether other types of robot interventions can be helpful in a skilled nursing environment such as the veterans home for example, alleviating nurse burnout by handling some of the responses when residents press their call buttons.

We have robots in the lab that might be able to help with that type of thing, Fitter said. We can also look at whether telepresence robots can help the residents videoconference with friends and relatives. And there are pettable seal robots that can be used to help with dementia care, to provide comfort at important times of day, like sundown.

Bill Smart, professor of mechanical engineering and robotics, is a co-principal investigator, and Carolyn Aldwin, director of the Center for Healthy Aging Research in the College of Public Health and Human Sciences, is on the research team as well.

It seems most likely well explore the breadth of applications to see what from our current arsenal might be most useful, and see what other needs and ideas veterans home staff might have that we did not think of in our initial brainstorming, Fitter said.

The Edward C. Allworth Veterans Home.

The Edward C. Allworth Veterans Home is named for OSU alumnus Maj. Edward Christopher Allworth, who received the Congressional Medal of Honor in World War I for leading a canal crossing that led to the capture of 100 enemy troops during the Meuse-Argonne Battle.

Allworth graduated from Oregon Agricultural College, as OSU was then known, in 1916. In 1925 he became the first director of the Memorial Union, a position he held until his retirement in 1963.

Allworth died in Portland in 1966 and is buried in Crystal Lake Cemetery in Corvallis.
