Denver IEEE Computer Society Guest Lecturer - Caleb Escobedo: Robot Arm Collision Avoidance and Onboard Sensors

Caleb Escobedo, a Computer Science PhD student from the University of Colorado Boulder will be coming to DU to present his research in robotics. Free Food will be provided.

Abstract:
Sensors are required to detect obstacles near a robot manipulator. While depth cameras are the most common scene perception technology, we look at alternatives that give information originating from the robot body itself (on-board sensors). For robots to be physically located within human–laden environments, advances are needed in both control and sensing technology. We will look at formulations and execution of real-time control methods for robot manipulator collision avoidance around dynamic objects and how to perceive objects in real-time.
