Moderate Access Level Required. High Access Level Required. He has developed human-computer interfaces based on the processing of signals and has developed a system that adds spatialized sounds to the icons in a computer interface to facilitate access by individuals with "low vision.

Francisco R. His main research area focuses on improving user interaction in 3DUI by a eliciting hand and full-body gesture and multimodal interactions, b developing techniques for multimodal interaction, and c developing interactive multimodal recognition systems.

His secondary research aims to discover how to increase interest for CS in non-CS entry-level college students via virtual and augmented reality games. His research has focused on 1 implementing the sensor fusion algorithm to improve orientation measurement using MEMS inertial and magnetic sensors and 2 developing a 3D hand motion tracking system using Inertial Measurement Units IMUs and infrared cameras.

This will be the most comprehensive book on the market today providing instructors a wide choice in designing their courses. An Instructor's Manual presenting detailed solutions to all the problems in the book is available from the Wiley editorial department. This is a short course covering advanced topics in state estimation and Kalman filtering. It focuses on the Orbit Determination problem.

This course is structured to present the basic concepts without the in-depth theoretical background and mathematical derivations that commonly accompany an academic presentation of the subject. My intention is to introduce state estimation in a simplified manner to those with no previous background in the field, or to provide a review to those who have studied the subject previously.

Readers should have a familiarity with differential and integral calculus and differential equations to help understand some equations presented. The form of this short course is like the many short courses I've taught at government agencies and private corporations during my thirty-five-year career as an aerospace engineering professor at Auburn University. It provides the practical equations that are useful to the practicing engineer.

The objectives of this short course are to: - Introduce the concepts and fundamentals of state estimation, with applications to the orbit determination problem. The material presented is usually covered in graduate level course in estimation theory except that there's no required homework, quizzes, projects, computer programs to write, or examinations.

I believe that even a novice reading through this material will gain an in-depth understanding of state estimation. My former students should recognize everything in this presentation, and if they didn't learn it the first time, they can learn it now through this simplified short course with much less work. State estimation and Kalman filtering is not easy, but it's my goal to make it enjoyably simple once the fundamentals are understood.

To do so, I've attempted to present the difficult concepts as clearly as possible to facilitate that understanding. Completion of this short course should enhance the knowledge base of all those who read through its content. This short course is part of a series I've developed as a Professor at Auburn University. Cicci, Auburn, Alabama, [email protected]. The book is divided into 24 chapters and organized in five blocks corresponding to recent advances in Kalman filtering theory, applications in medical and biological sciences, tracking and positioning systems, electrical engineering and, finally, industrial processes and communication networks.

Experience Kalman filter with hands-on examples to grasp the essence. A book long awaited by anyone who could not dare to put their first step into Kalman filter. The author presents Kalman filter and other useful filters without complicated mathematical derivation and proof but with hands-on examples in MATLAB that will guide you step-by-step. The book starts with recursive filter and basics of Kalman filter, and gradually expands to application for nonlinear systems through extended and unscented Kalman filters.

Also, some topics on frequency analysis including complementary filter are covered. Each chapter is balanced with theoretical background for absolute beginners and practical MATLAB examples to experience the principles explained.

Robot motion planning has become a major focus of robotics. Research findings can be applied not only to robotics but to planning routes on circuit boards, directing digital actors in computer graphics, robot-assisted surgery and medicine, and in novel areas such as drug design and protein folding. This text reflects the great advances that have taken place in the last ten years, including sensor-based planning, probabalistic planning, localization and mapping, and motion planning for dynamic and nonholonomic systems.

Its presentation makes the mathematical underpinnings of robot motion accessible to students of computer science and engineering, rleating low-level implementation details to high-level algorithmic concepts.

Ortega Publisher: CRC Press ISBN: Category: Computers Page: View: In this new era of computing, where the iPhone, iPad, Xbox Kinect, and similar devices have changed the way to interact with computers, many questions have risen about how modern input devices can be used for a more intuitive user interaction.

It presents most of the aspects of control that can help anyone to have a synthetic view of control theory and possible applications, especially concerning process engineering. This book provides the foundational material necessary for those who wish to embark on advanced research at the limits of computability, collecting together lecture material from leading experts across the topics of optimization, uncertainty quantification and aerospace engineering.

The aerospace sector in particular has stringent performance requirements on highly complex systems, for which solutions are expected to be optimal and reliable at the same time.

The text covers a wide range of techniques and methods, from polynomial chaos expansions for uncertainty quantification to Bayesian and Imprecise Probability theories, and from Markov chains to surrogate models based on Gaussian processes.

The book will serve as a valuable tool for practitioners, researchers and PhD students. The errors originate from the seismic mass, which is mounted upon the transducer. On the one hand, the seismic mass reduces the bandwidth of the measurement system. On the other hand, the seismic mass leads to superimposed inertial forces, when the seismic mass is subjected to motion during cutting force measurement.

Both effects are modelled and correction methods were researched, which are capable to correct these systematic measurement errors in hard real-time. Several control laws are presented for mini-helicopters, quadrotors, mini-blimps, flapping-wing aerial vehicles, planes, etc. Finally, this book has two chapters devoted to embedded control systems and Kalman filters applied for aerial vehicles control and navigation. This book presents the state of the art in the area of UAVs.

The aerodynamical models of different configurations are presented in detail as well as the control strategies which are validated in experimental platforms.
