Shape memory alloy (SMA) based actuators have a number of attributes which make them useful for robotic applications. Unfortunately their response is relatively slow, being limite...
Nodes in sensor fields and in autonomous swarms of mobile robots need to communicate; this usually requires individual nodes to either consume a significant amount of energy, ca...
As the number of imaging pixels in camera phones increases, users expect camera phone image quality to be comparable to digital still cameras. The mobile imaging industry is aware...
