Development of a high-performance haptic telemanipulation system with dissimilar kinematics (2006)
Journal Article

This work addresses selected practical issues regarding the development of a telerobotic system for 6-d.o.f. tasks. The system consists of a hyper-redundant 10-d.o.f. haptic input device ViSHaRD10, a redundant 7-d.o.f. manipulator and a stereo vision...

Constraint modelling as a means for understanding the limitations of a design and its performance (2006)
Book Chapter

When new design tasks are undertaken, knowledge of the design area is often ill-understood and the appropriate design rules are unclear. What are more apparent are the constraints which place limits upon the allowable forms of feasible design. This p...

A high performance fuzzy logic architecture for UAV decision making (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The majority of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in operation today are not truly autonomous, but are instead reliant on a remote human pilot. A high degree of autonomy can provide many advantages in terms of cost, operational resources and safety. Ho... Read More about A high performance fuzzy logic architecture for UAV decision making.

A constraint-based modelling approach, to assess the capability of food processing equipment to handle product variation (2006)
Book Chapter

For design and development engineers, difficulties arise ensuring that existing manufacturing equipment has the potential to handle both large product variation and complexity of process. The food processing industry maintains the highest number of p...

On the response of shock-induced separation bubble to small amplitude disturbances (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Numerical simulations of an oblique shock interacting with a compressible laminar boundary layer are reported. The Mach number ranges from 2 to 6.85, while the Reynolds number based on the distance to the impingement location is fixed at 3 × 105. All...

Recording forces exerted on the bowel wall during colonoscopy: In vitro evaluation (2005)
Journal Article

High fidelity telepresence systems: Design, control, and evaluation (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

An overview of subjectively selected recent topics and research trends in the area of modern telepresence and teleaction is given. Multi-modal telepresence systems are to enable human operators to become present and active in remote or inaccessible e...

Haptic telemanipulation in extensive remote environments (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We present a telepresence system with visual and haptic feedback for a telemanipulation task in full six degrees-of-freedom. The employed teleoperator consists of an anthropomorphic manipulator arm mounted on a mobile base to allow task execution in...
