Implicit Distance Functions: Learning and Applications in Robotics

In this thesis, we address the complex issue of collision avoidance in the joint space of robots. Avoiding collisions with both the robot's own body parts and obstacles in the environment is a critical constraint in motion planning and is crucial for ensur ...

Gazebo Fluids: SPH-based simulation of fluid interaction with articulated rigid body dynamics

Auke Ijspeert, Jonathan Patrick Arreguit O'Neill, Wei Wang, Emmanouil Angelidis

Physical simulation is an indispensable component of robotics simulation platforms that serves as the basis for a plethora of research directions. Looking strictly at robotics, the common characteristic of the most popular physics engines, such as ODE, DAR ...

Radatron: Accurate Detection Using Multi-resolution Cascaded MIMO Radar

Haitham Al Hassanieh, Junfeng Guan, Seyedsohrab Madani, Saurabh Gupta, Waleed Ahmed

Millimeter wave (mmWave) radars are becoming a more popular sensing modality in self-driving cars due to their favorable characteristics in adverse weather. Yet, they currently lack sufficient spatial resolution for semantic scene understanding. In this pa ...

Real-time high-resolution omnidirectional imaging platform for drone detection and tracking

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Selman Ergünay, Yusuf Leblebici, Vladan Popovic, Bilal Demir, Gökçen Nurlu

Drones have become steadily affordable, which raises privacy and security concerns as well as interest in drone detection systems. On the other hand, drone detection is a challenging task due to small dimensions of drones, difficulty of long-distance detec ...

GarNet: A Two-Stream Network for Fast and Accurate 3D Cloth Draping

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Victor Constantin, Erhan Gündogdu

While Physics-Based Simulation (PBS) can accurately drape a 3D garment on a 3D body, it remains too costly for real-time applications, such as virtual try-on. By contrast, inference in a deep network, requiring a single forward pass, is much faster. Taking ...

Phace: Physics-based Face Modeling and Animation

Mark Pauly, Ladislav Kavan, Alexandru Eugen Ichim

We present a novel physics-based approach to facial animation. Contrary to commonly used generative methods, our solution computes facial expressions by minimizing a set of non-linear potential energies that model the physical interaction of passive flesh, ...

Reconstructing Personalized Anatomical Models for Physics-based Body Animation

Ladislav Kavan, Alexandru Eugen Ichim

We present a method to create personalized anatomical models ready for physics-based animation, using only a set of 3D surface scans. We start by building a template anatomical model of an average male which supports deformations due to both 1) subject-spe ...

Accuracy and Precision of Head Motion Information in Multi-Channel Free Induction Decay Navigators for Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Tobias Kober, Gunnar Krüger, Michael Herbst, Maryna Volodimirivna Waszak

Free induction decay (FID) navigators were found to qualitatively detect rigid-body head movements, yet it is unknown to what extent they can provide quantitative motion estimates. Here, we acquired FID navigators at different sampling rates and simultaneo ...

Mechanical form-finding of timber fabric structures

Seyed Sina Nabaei

How about fastening a knot? not with ropes... but with timber panels. Timber Fabric Structures (TFS) originate from such an inspiration. An architectural reinterpretation of fabric techniques (mainly braiding) using building scale timber panels to design ...

Fast collision detection methods for joint surfaces

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Ehsan Arbabi

In the recent years medical diagnosis and surgery planning often require the precise evaluation of joint movements. This has led to exploit reconstructed three-dimensional models of the joint tissues obtained from CT or MR Images (for bones, cartilages, et ...
