Preface: Special Issue on Knowledge Driven Robotics and Manufacturing

June 30, 2015
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Edson Prestes
State-of-the-art robots are capable of sub-millimeter movement accuracy. However, they are often programmed by an operator using crude positional controls from a teach pendent. Reprogramming these robots when their task is altered requires that the robot

Performance Testing and Evaluation of Transformative Apps Devices

April 16, 2014
Author(s)
Anthony J. Downs, Lisa J. Fronczek, Emile L. Morse, Brian A. Weiss, Ian P. Bashor, Craig I. Schlenoff
Transformative Apps (TransApps) is a Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) funded program whose goal is to develop a range of militarily-relevant software applications ("apps") to enhance the operational effectiveness of military personnel on

A Simulated Sensor-based Approach for Kit Building Applications

December 20, 2013
Author(s)
Zeid Kootbally, Craig I. Schlenoff, Theodore J. Weisman, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Thomas R. Kramer, Anthony Pietromartire
Kit building or kitting is a process in which individually separate but related items are grouped, packaged, and supplied together as one unit (kit). This paper describes advances in developing sensing/control and parts detection technologies enabling

Preface: Ubiquitous Robotics (UBIROBOTS): Workshop at the UBICOMP 2012 Conference

November 30, 2013
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Edson Prestes, Abdelghani Chibani, Yacine Amirat
Ubiquitous robots (UBIROBOTS) are smart software or physical service providers within ambient intelligence environments. The integration of these robots within cloud computing and ubiquitous computing technologies will enhance our daily lives. Ubiquitous

A Literature Review of Sensor Ontologies for Manufacturing Applications

October 23, 2013
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Tsai Hong Hong, Roger D. Eastman
The purpose of this paper is to review existing sensor and sensor network ontologies to understand whether they can be reused as a basis for a manufacturing perception sensor ontology, or if the existing ontologies hold lessons for the development of a new

Inferring Intention Through State Representations in Cooperative Human-Robot Environments

June 7, 2013
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Anthony Pietromartire, Zeid Kootbally, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Thomas R. Kramer, Sebti Foufou
In this paper, we describe a novel approach for inferring intention during cooperative human-robot activities through the representation and ordering of state information. State relationships are represented by a combination of spatial relationships in a

A Sensor Ontology Literature Review

April 18, 2013
Author(s)
Roger D. Eastman, Craig I. Schlenoff, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Tsai H. Hong
The purpose of this paper is to review existing sensor and sensor network ontologies to understand whether they can be reused as a basis for a manufacturing sensor ontology, or if the existing ontologies hold lessons for the development of a new ontology

An IEEE Standard Ontology for Robotics and Automation

October 12, 2012
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Edson Prestes, Rajmohan Madhavan, Paulo Goncalvest, Howard Li, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Thomas R. Kramer, Emilio Miguelanez
In this article, we discuss a newly formed IEEE- RAS working group entitled Ontologies for Robotics and Automation (ORA). The goal of this working group is to develop a standard ontology and associated methodology for knowledge representation and reasoning

An Industrial Robotic Knowledge Representation for Kit Building Applications

October 12, 2012
Author(s)
Stephen B. Balakirsky, Zeid Kootbally, Craig I. Schlenoff, Thomas R. Kramer, Satyandra K. Gupta
The IEEE RAS Ontologies for Robotics and Automation Working Group is dedicated to developing a methodology for knowledge representation and reasoning in robotics and automation. As part of this working group, the Industrial Robots sub-group is tasked with
