Collaborative robotics and adaptive machines laboratory – research advances in autonomous systems, advanced manufacturing, and healthcare

摘要

This report summarizes the recent research projects carried out at the Collaborative Robotics and Adaptive Machines Laboratory, Old Dominion University. The topics include collaborative robotics strategies for non-repetitive micro-drilling tasks, hand-held robots for spillage-free specimen retrieval tasks, development of a three-dimensional simulator for autonomous underwater vehicles, and enhancing search efficiency of glowworm-inspired robotic swarms for multiple source localization tasks. Research in these areas has applications in autonomous systems, advanced manufacturing, and health care.
