With smart and autonomous vehicles around the corner, significant advances are being made in integration of sensing, machine learning, and advanced control systems in vehicles. Modern vehicles currently contain 60-100 sensors on average, and this number is expected to rise to 200 sensors per car by 2020. These sensing technologies, however, are mostly aimed at …
This research program is a multi-disciplinary partnership between the City of Kingston and Ingenuity Labs that will investigate robotic inspection technologies as an integral step towards turning the Kingston Third Crossing into a smart structure. The goal of this proposed research program is to begin development of a high resolution digital image analysis and artificial …
This project is about studying and developing demonstrably practical methods and algorithms for reconnaissance activities using multiple robotic vehicles, with a particular focus on especially harsh and uncertain terrains (e.g., rocky, forested, unstructured, off-road) as well as on the problem of maintaining secrecy from potential intruders in such operations. The proposed research includes work on …
The goal of this project is to initiate research into a novel process for improved patient care in acute and non-acute healthcare facilities. The process is based on the deployment of a smart environment enable nurses and other healthcare professionals to more effectively and efficiently monitor in-patients at risk of harm from events such as falls. …
