Precision Positioning of Microrobots for Multi-Object Spectrographs
How does one study the evolution of the Milky Way, or the expansion of the Universe, or explore the mysteries of Dark energy? To investigate these complex topics, astronomers require data, and a great deal of it, in the form of the spectra of stars, galaxi ...
EPFL2020DETERMINING POSITIONS OF TRANSDUCERS FOR RECEIVING AND/OR TRANSMITTING WAVE SIGNALS
Paul Hurley, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni, Nezihe Merve Gürel
The invention is notably directed to a method for determining positions {pi}i=1,..., N of transducers {Ai}i=1,..., N of an apparatus. The transducers are assumed to be configured for receiving wave signals from and/or transmitting wave signals to one or mo ...
2017First spatial alignment of the LHCb VELO and analysis of beam absorber collision data
A first alignment of the LHCb Vertex Locator has been obtained from beam induced tracks at the LHC. A 450 GeV/c protons were collided on a beam absorber during the LHC synchronisation tests of the anti-clockwise beam in August and September 2008. The resul ...
2010Organ Surface Markerless Tracking
Today’s surgical navigation systems are difficult to use for deformable organs. State of the art technology struggles to continuously update and display preoperative information such that it corresponds to the actual position of the organ. An update method ...
2008A Galileo E1b,c RF front-end for Search-and-Rescue applications
Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Frédéric Chastellain, Marcel Baracchi Frei, Davide Manetti
The current Search-and-Rescue (SAR) service, which is based on the Cospas-Sarsat system, suffers from major limitations such as poor position accuracy, long alert times and high false alarm rate. Two types of distress signals are used, the 121.5MHz/(up to ...
2007Enactive robot vision
The complexity of today's autonomous robots poses a major challenge for Artificial Intelligence. These robots are equipped with sophisticated sensors and mechanical abilities that allow them to enter our homes and interact with humans. For example, today's ...
EPFL2007Evolutionary Active Vision Toward Three Dimensional Landmark-Navigation
Dario Floreano, Mototaka Suzuki
Active vision may be useful to perform landmark-based navigation where landmark relationship requires active scanning of the environment. In this article we explore this hypothesis by evolving the neural system controlling vision and behavior of a mobile r ...

Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Frédéric Chastellain, Davide Manetti, Giuseppe Zamuner
The current Search and Rescue (SAR) service, which is based on the Cospas-Sarsat system, suffers from major limitations such as poor position accuracy, long alert times and high false alarm rate. Two types of distress signals are used, the first 121.5MHz/( ...
2006A flexible Galileo E1 Receiver Platform for the Validation of Low Power and Rapid Acquisition Schemes
Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Frédéric Chastellain, Marcel Baracchi Frei, Davide Manetti, Giuseppe Zamuner
With the inclusion of 406 MHz transponders on the Galileo satellites and the new search and rescue (SAR) return link message (RLM) on the open service E1B signal, the availability of distress beacons equipped with a Galileo or combined GPS/Galileo receiver ...
2006A Lane Detection Vision Module for Driver Assistance
Roland Siegwart, Sascha Kolski
A driver support system should provide assistance and security to the driver. For navigaton tasks it is neccessary to determine position of the ego vehicle relative to the road. One of the principal approaches is to detect road boundaries and lanes using a ...
