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 ...
The absence of GPS underwater makes navigation for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) a difficult challenge. Without an external reference in the form of acoustic beacons at known positions, the vehicle has to rely on proprioceptive information obtained ...
Indoor pedestrian navigation is probably a very challenging research area. In this context, an optimal data fusion filter that hybridises a large set of observations: angles of arrival (AOA), time differences of arrival (TDOA), accelerations, angular veloc ...
During the last decade, ultra wideband (UWB) systems gained a large interest in the scientific world because of their suitability to realize among others communication systems with tremendous data rates and accurate indoor positioning and location systems. ...

Modern navigation systems use multi-sensor-systems for location determination in combination with GPS or DGPS. Limitations in the availability of satellites due to shadowing and multi path effects in urban areas, magnetic disturbances, wheel slips and erro ...
This project is based on the ongoing data collection campaign by Nokia Re- search Center-Lausanne. We use location data sampled everyday by mobile phones in the campaign to estimate position of the participants. It is with emerging mobile systems that comb ...
This paper presents results from static loads tests performed on the new Langensand Bridge built in Switzerland. A systematic study of over 1000 models subjected to three load cases identifies a set of 11 candidate models through static measurements. Predi ...

Inertially aided satellite positioning can bring its benefits to all disciplines in which detailed knowledge of the trajectory is a prerequisite for improving performance. In motorcycling for instance, the determination of slips of tires requires the deter ...

The objective of this study is to verify if only the use of robotic force feedback enables indirect and dynamic manipulations which are difficult for human beings to perform. Human beings usually control the trajectory of an object using visual feedback; f ...
