A Smart Metasurface for Electromagnetic Manipulation Based on Speech Recognition Article

Lin Bai, Yuan Ke Liu, Liang Xu, Zheng Zhang, Qiang Wang, Wei Xiang Jiang, Cheng-Wei Qiu, Tie Jun Cui

Engineering 2023, Volume 22, Issue 3,   Pages 185-190 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2022.06.026

Abstract:

In this work, we propose and realize a smart metasurface for programming electromagnetic (EM) manipulations based on human speech recognition. The smart metasurface platform is composed of a digital coding metasurface, a speech-recognition module, a single-chip computer, and a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) circuit, and can control EM waves according to pre-stored voice commands in a smart way. The constructed digital metasurface contains 6 × 6 super unit cells, each of which consists of 4 × 4 active elements with embedded varactor diodes. Together with the DAC and single-chip computer, the speech-recognition module can recognize voice commands and generate corresponding voltage sequences to control the metasurface. In addition, a genetic algorithm (GA) is adopted in the design of the metasurface for efficiently optimizing the phase distributions. To verify the performance of the smart metasurface platform, three typical functions are demonstrated: radar cross-section reduction, vortex beam generation, and beam splitting. The proposed strategy may offer a new avenue for controlling EM waves and establishing a link between EM and acoustic communications.

Selective and Independent Control of Microrobots in a Magnetic Field: A Review Review

Min Wang, Tianyi Wu, Rui Liu, Zhuoran Zhang, Jun Liu

Engineering 2023, Volume 24, Issue 5,   Pages 21-38 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2023.02.011

Abstract:

Due to the unique advantages of untethered connections and a high level of safety, magnetic actuation is a commonly used technique in microrobotics for propelling microswimmers, manipulating fluidics, and navigating medical devices. However, the microrobots or actuated targets are exposed to identical and homogeneous driving magnetic fields, which makes it challenging to selectively control a single robot or a specific group among multiple targets. This paper reviews recent advances in selective and independent control for multi-microrobot or multi-joint microrobot systems driven by magnetic fields. These selective and independent control approaches decode the global magnetic field into specific configurations for the individualized actuation of multiple microrobots. The methods include applying distinct properties for each microrobot or creating heterogeneous magnetic fields at different locations. Independent control of the selected targets enables the effective cooperation of multiple microrobots to accomplish more complicated operations. In this review, we provide a unique perspective to explain how to manipulate individual microrobots to achieve a high level of group intelligence on a small scale, which could help accelerate the translational development of microrobotic technology for real-life applications.

A hybrid visual servo control method for simultaneously controlling a nonholonomic mobile and a manipulator Research Articles

Wei Li, Rong Xiong,li_wei_666@163.com,rxiong@zju.edu.cn

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2021, Volume 22, Issue 2,   Pages 141-286 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1900460

Abstract: Visual servo control rules that refer to the control methods of robot motion planning using image data acquired from the camera mounted on the robot have been widely applied to the motion control of robotic arms or mobile robots. The methods are usually classified as image-based visual servo, position-based visual servo, and (HVS) control rules. enhances the working range and flexibility of robotic arms. However, there is little work on applying visual servo control rules to the motion of the whole robot. We propose an HVS motion control method for a robot which combines a six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) robotic arm with a nonholonomic mobile base. Based on the kinematic differential equations of the robot, the matrix of the whole robot is derived, and the HVS control equation is derived using the whole Jacobian matrix combined with position and visual image information. The distance between the gripper and target is calculated through the observation of the marker by a camera mounted on the gripper. The differences between the positions of the markers ’ feature points and the expected positions of them in the image coordinate system are also calculated. These differences are substituted into the control equation to obtain the speed control law of each degree of freedom of the robot. To avoid the position error caused by observation, we also introduce the to correct the positions and orientations of the end of the manipulator. Finally, the proposed algorithm is validated on a platform consisting of a Bulldog chassis, a UR5 robotic arm, and a ZED camera.
