Exteroceptive and proprioceptive sensors for robotics
Facebook Twitter Pinterest LinkedInProprioception refers to the perception, conscious or not, of the position of the different parts of the body. Exteroception, as opposed to proprioception, groups together the sensations caused by external stimuli (sight, smell, hearing, etc.). It is these phenomena that enable humans to move around in an environment and to be aware…
RIMA Realigned Project
Facebook Twitter Pinterest LinkedInINNOWTECH participates a second time to the RIMA Realigned project. A great collaboration between INNOWTECH, EyeSnap and TotalYmage to develop a robot-sensor equipped with a 360° camera for inspections in sensitive environments. RIMA projects aim to bring together all actors (suppliers, service providers, innovation centers…) in order to accelerate robotics in Inspection…
CdTe and CdZnTe detectors
Facebook Twitter Pinterest LinkedInFeatures Semiconductor detectors are nuclear measurement detectors which, combined with the appropriate electronics, allow spectrometric, counting or integration measurements. They have the following general characteristics Compactness, Very good energy resolution, Good spatial resolution. However, these detectors are often : Expensive, Fragile, Susceptible to radiation damage. Mode of operation Semiconductor detectors allow the…
Algorithmes SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping)
Facebook Twitter Pinterest LinkedInPositioning and mapping of a robot The positioning of a robot in its environment is an important issue in the field of mobile robotics to allow autonomous navigation of the robot and the taking of geolocated measurements. In constraining environments, the use of absolute positioning systems (beacons, GPS…) is impossible. Only relative…
What is ROS (Robot Operating System)?
Facebook Twitter Pinterest LinkedInTechnical introduction to ROS ROS (Robot Operating System) is an open source software development environment for robotics. Its development is currently led by the Open Robotics. ROS is a standardised meta operating system that provides various functionalities for robotics: abstraction of the hardware layer, control of low-level peripherals, simplified implementation of commonly…
