…the ecosystem, to improve time to market and achieve IEEE and OPEN Alliance compliance. Keysight has developed a new automotive Ethernet Rx test software that verifies that information is received as intended. It performs complete bit error rate (BER) count to ensure the device-under-test (DUT) maintains a BER of less than 10-10 and meets the signal quality requirements of the IEEE Std 802.3bp and the Open Alliance 1000BASE-T1 Interoperability test suite specification. In addition, it performs an Alien Crosstalk Noise Rejection test, which saves hours with an automated test of IEEE and required OPEN Alliance compliance specifications, as well as…

…than a dozen robotics research papers at this year's IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, or ICRA, which will be held in London from May 29 to June 2. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) will recognize one of the company's papers, titled “Geometric Fabrics: Generalizing Classical Mechanics to Capture the Physics of Behavior,” with an IEEE Best Paper award at ICRA. Papers examine training robots in simulation to work in reality Many of this year’s submissions demonstrate robotics capabilities trained in simulation that were then shown to work in the real world, noted NVIDIA.

…Acharya, Matthews and Fischbeck published their recent study in IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems. Their new method entails sending data directly from the vehicle to a cloud server managed by the state or county within which the driver lives, eliminating the need for them to come in for regular inspections. Instead, the data would be run through machine learning algorithms that identify trends in the data and codes prevalent among over-emitting vehicles. This means that most drivers would never need to report to an inspection site unless their vehicle’s data indicates that it’s likely over-emitting, at which point they…

…of Electrical and Electronics Engineers' Robotics and Automation Society (IEEE/RAS) and the International Federation of Robotics (IFR) jointly sponsor the award, which is intended to promote stronger collaboration between science and industry in robotics. ABB PixelPaint saves paint, time In the past, 20% to 30% percent of the paint applied to vehicles was wasted because of overspray. By contrast, the inkjet head of PixelPaint applies 100% of the paint to the vehicle surface, according to ABB Robotics. In addition, PixelPaint's two high-precision robots eliminate the process of masking and de-masking each car, helping to reduce bottlenecks, it said. Previously, applying…

…from other sensors in a congested driving environment, said Tower. The research for this was documented in the 2021 IEEE International Solid-State Circuits Conference Digest of Technical Papers. In addition to the mutual work done with Tower Semiconductor, this research at USC was partially supported by Toyota Central R&D Corporation (TCRDL), Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT), and the USC Pratt and Whitney Institute for Collaborative Engineering (PWICE at USC).

…published in Volume 24, Issue 11 of the journal IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transport Systems on November 2023. The proposed system is built on the YOLOv3 (You Only Look Once) deep learning object detection technique, which is the most active state-of-the-art technique available for 2D visual detection. The researchers first used this new model for 2D object detection and then modified the YOLOv3 technique to detect 3D objects. Using both point cloud data and RGB images as input, the system generates bounding boxes with confidence scores and labels for visible obstacles as output. To assess the system’s performance, the team…

…Murphy is an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) fellow, and director of the Humanitarian Robotics and AI Laboratory. She has spoken about the role of robotics in responding to emergencies and infectious diseases, as well as the importance of human-machine interaction. Economic incentive needed for development “While many drones are being used by firefighters and law enforcement, there's not a lot of economic incentive to develop the ground robots for emergency management,” Murphy told Robotics 24/7. “A drone can cost $1,000 to $3,000 and do everything it needs to, but the minimum…

…do from a digital helper. The findings, published in IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, show how an AI agent interprets its environment through tactile and proprioceptive feedback, and then control the robots' behaviors. The researchers said this enables precise sensing, gentle interaction, and effective object manipulation to accomplish robotic tasks. They added that this development could revolutionize industries such as fruit picking, domestic service, and eventually recreate touch in artificial limbs. “With our Bi-Touch system, we can easily train AI agents in a virtual world within a couple of hours to achieve bimanual tasks that are tailored towards the touch,…
