In this analysis, we present results from measurements performed to determine the stability of a hand tracking system and the accuracy of the detected palm and finger’s position. Measurements were performed for the evaluation of the sensor for an application in an industrial robot-assisted assembly scenario. Human–robot interaction is a relevant topic in collaborative robotics. Intuitive and straightforward control tools for robot navigation and program flow control are essential for effective utilisation in production scenarios without unnecessary slowdowns caused by the operator. For the hand tracking and gesture-based control, it is necessary to know the sensor’s accuracy. For gesture recognition with a moving target, the sensor must provide stable tracking results. This paper evaluates the sensor’s real-world performance by measuring the localisation deviations of the hand being tracked as it moves in the workspace.

The article deal about the development in the field of robotic research. The introduction suggests and summarizes actual development in robotics, which is heavily focused on the service and humanoid field in many applications. Next section of contribution is dealed to the development and is referred to its fundamental properties, which has current industrial robots.

This paper presents the development and validation of a cost-efficient and uncomplicated real-time localization system (RTLS) for use in mobile robotics, specifically within indoor and storage environments. By harnessing ultrasonic waves to measure distances from three beacons, the system provides stable and reliable localization. This method utilizes the time-of-flight (TOF) principle, allowing for accurate distance calculations with simple microcontrollers. The system is designed to update the robot’s position at a frequency of at least 10 times per second, ensuring smooth navigation. Our trilateration-based approach allows for the precise determination of the robot’s position with a notable standard deviation accuracy of up to 15 mm. The aim was to design a simple yet sufficiently accurate system and verify its precision through experimental measurements. The experimental results demonstrate the system’s efficacy and lay a solid foundation for advancing this technology. Furthermore, the cost for the components required to build this indoor localization system (ILS) with three beacons and one tag is remarkably low, under EUR 80.

Robotic football with humanoid robots is a multidisciplinary field connecting several scientific fields. A challenging task in the design of a humanoid robot for the AndroSot and HuroCup competitions is the realization of movement on the field. This study aims to determine a walking pattern for a humanoid robot with an impact on its dynamic stability and behavior. The design of the proposed technical concept depends on its stability management mechanism, walking speed and such factors as the chosen stability approaches. The humanoid robot and its versatility, along with the adaptability of the terrain, are somewhat limited due to the complexity of the walking principle and the control of the robot’s movement itself. The technical concept uses dynamic stability as the potential force of the inertial bodies and their parts so that the humanoid robot does not overturn. The total height of the robot according to the rules of the competition will be 50 cm. In the performed experiment, only the lower part of the humanoid robot with added weight was considered, which is more demanding due to the non-use of the upper limbs for stabilization. The performed experiment verified the correctness of the design, where the torso of the robot performed eight steps in inclinations of a roll angle +4/−2° and a pitch angle +4/−6°.

Installing robots in small businesses is primarily dependent on the ratio of money spent to achieve profit. In addition, from consumer pressure on the production, quality and low cost, the increasing cost of human labour leads to robot deployment. With falling prices of robots, their use is becoming increasingly common, which leads to small firms trying to implement robots that are not new. They try to buy a cheaper older robot or a robot that was damaged during its previous operation. It is necessary to eliminate the risk that arises from more serious damage to the robot, therefore, the requirements for verification of the robot’s resultant parameters after its repair performed in own interest. Based on such a requirement, the solution was to verify the parameters of the UR5 robot to confirm the possibility of its further use. After replacing the damaged parts, the robot was subjected to its parameter verification according to standard ISO 9283:2012. For measurement purposes, a measuring cube was designed and manufactured, as well as a measuring nest for Heidenhain sensors.

The article describes the concept of a locomotive construction for a robot moving along an urbanized or unstructured natural terrain. The most suitable variant was the development of a hybrid leg-wheel chassis for a service robot. It has only been confirmed that the proposed design solution for the leg-wheel hybrid chassis can largely determine activities, requiring a high degree of mobility in different application environments and, at the same time, a high efficiency motion speed over a relatively flat terrain. The geometry for the middle robot service category was processed to verify mobility. The proposed geometry has been optimized for the obstacles defined by the rescuers’ requirements. The result of the simulation is the mobility verification and the recommendation for the prototype development of the service robot.
