van den Berg, Rob (author)
The problem of finding a target and forming a path to it is known and is well-explored in the field of swarm robotics. Using swarm intelligence, even swarms of simple robots are capable of solving this problem. However, often these works assume that two robots can perceive each other can physically reach each other, or that robots can detect any...

Tactile Internet opens many new possibilities as it solves one of the critical problems in the modern-day Internet, namely latency. Remote operations are possible that are deemed too dangerous with current technologies. Interacting directly with the remote environment without being physically present will be a life-changing experience. Before...

For my Master’s thesis, I developed and trained an audio-based localization system for indoor localization called AudioLocNet. AudioLocNet is based on convolutional neural networks and maps recordings from a small(10cm diameter) microphone array to a grid of locations around said array. AudioLocNet was made to be used by swarms of small robots...

Humans interact more and more at a distance these days. Where currently, this interaction is mainly visual and auditory, Tactile Internet (TI) also allows for remote kinesthetic interactions. With the devel- opment of TI, a paradigm shift is on the horizon where the current internet evolves from content delivery to a skill-set delivery network....

Reliable indoor navigation in the presence of dynamic obstacles is an essential capability for mobile robot deployment. Previous work on robot navigation focuses on expanding the network structure and hardware setup leading to more complex and costly systems. The accompanying physical demonstrations are often limited to slow-moving agents and...

Tactile Internet (TI) allows kinesthetic interactions with a remote environment and haptic sensory feedback over a network, essentially adding a new sensory dimension to the internet. TI has a wide range of applications such as enabling remote work for professions that require human hands and tactile sensory input like car repairs or medical...

In this Thesis a fast, low-cost, anthropomorphic robotic hand with tactile feedback is designed. The hand consists of an index finger and a thumb, both of which have four degrees of freedom. All eight degrees of freedom are fully actuated using eight servomotors whose forces are transferred using tendons. The design introduces tendon routing to...

LoRaWAN is a public Wireless Sensor network with excellent properties like being long-range, low-energy radios and resulting in long battery life. Devices are connected to this network through gateways, and they will run in that deployment for years without replacement. Therefore, bugs and security issues in such devices' firmware are present...

Localization is an important element for a moving swarm of robots. A swarm contains many individuals, and it is essential that the swarm members do not collide. Expensive and complex implementations to localize others is undesirable. Hence, a localization system designed using the available resources is desired. The available techniques that...

Robotic agents can continuously provide feedback to people based on their behaviors. For instance, a robot swarm can remind a group of people to respect social distancing guidelines during a pandemic or discourage unwanted behavior such as littering. However, developing a swarm robot to operate in realistic situations is challenging: a robot...

Tactile internet promises to enable humans to manipulate remote physical environments. The human interacts with the remote environment by manipulating a haptic device. Recently, research effort into tactile internet and haptic devices has seen a significant increase. However replicating one aspect of executing an action, feeling textures, is...

Long Range Wide Area Networks (LoRaWAN) offer easy deployment, robustness against interference, and operational longevity to energy constrained IoTdevices which communicate in a best-e_ort fashion in extended ranges. However, the simple (ALOHA-like) design of the MAC layer leads to packet collisions in dense LoRaWAN deployments with high traffic...

Technology is transforming almost all aspects of our lives, one of them is automation. The main motivation of automation is to help humans avoid performing tedious, high risk jobs. Automated driving, also known as autonomous driving, has been at the center of industrial and academic attention since a few decades now, thanks to its potential of...

Platooning is an application of autonomous driving in which the vehicles travel linearly following each other. The benefits of such driving are many-fold, primarily it increases the traffic throughput and also reduces fuel consumption as the result of minimized drag experienced by the vehicles. The state-of-the-art technologies to achieve...

We consider a system of IoT nodes powered completely by energy harvesting.This work focuses on achieving the time correlation of data measurements ina network of energy harvesting sensor nodes. Time correlation is achieved byhopping a message through the whole network. This message wakes up all thenodes and lets them perform a measurement....

Advances in sensing and machine learning technologies give rise to personal health coaches that monitor human activities and support healthy behaviour. In this context, wheelchair users can benefit from such technologies as they often suffer from physical ailments due to insufficient or over activity, prolonged improper posture and lack of...

Locating people inside buildings is still an unsolved problem. There is a lot<br/>of research going on in this field and many different solutions using different<br/>techniques have been proposed. However, there is no widely accepted indoor<br/>localization solution like how GPS is for outdoor localization due to less accuracy, higher hardware...

This work is a study into the channel throughput produced by a single channel LoRaWAN gateway under various traffic load conditions. The use of CSMA protocols has been proposed in heavy traffic conditions when ALOHA protocol starts to fail. Three network scenarios - Centralized, Distributed and Hybrid were envisioned in which p-CSMA and np-CSMA...

For the Internet of Things (IoT) applications that send a few bytes of sensor information infrequently, several long-range IoT technologies have been conceived. Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) is one of them that stands out due to its extended coverage, high penetrability, and high reliability features. Envisaged<br/>long device lifetime and the...

As the elderly world population increases, caregivers are switching to remote care and monitoring solutions to enable their patients to live autonomously at home for as long as possible. Such services are based on detecting and recognizing Activities of Daily Living (ADL) by using diverse types of sensors at the elder's home that transmit...
