RoboEarth
Description
Primary Application Field
: The RoboEarth-project exploits a new approach towards endowing robots
with advanced perception and action capabilities, thus enabling robots to
carrying out useful tasks autonomously in circumstances that were not
planned for explicitly at design time. The core of the innovation proposed
by the consortium involves the development of a world-wide web-style
database: RoboEarth. RoboEarth will allow robots to share any reusable
knowledge independent from their hardware and configuration. As a
result of the proposed project, major innovations are expected in the
fields of: 3D sensing (object recognition and localization), control
strategies (linking perception and action), and learning.

x-arm: human-friendly support aid for health care
Description
: The goal of the X-arm project is the development of an advanced
support aid for lifting and manipulating patients positions. The unique
selling point of the support aid is the intuitive control the user will
have over it. The movement of the user is amplified, without
diminishing the contact the user has with his or her environment (for
instance a patient). An exoskeleton could be a very good aid to the
care worker. There are two technical challenges to achieve a lifting aid
as described above: (1) the measurement and control systems,
especially haptic feedback and (2) the high forces, powers and energyneed that result in the bulky and intolerant exoskeletons currently
being developed. Technical drivers of the project are the development
of (mechanical) structural and energy-capacitive components that will
lead to efficient and light structures as contributing aspects on the
realization of a safe and ergonomic functional demonstrator. The xarm project is cooperation between InteSpring B.V., the Netherlands
and The Delft University of Technology. The TU Delft has a lot of
background knowledge about measurement and control systems.
InteSpring has knowledge and experience regarding mechanical
movement technologies and spring systems.

Myopro
Description
Primary Application Field
: Myoelectric prostheses often stay unused by their owners. Currently
available hands can only open and close and as a result patients
perform most activities with their intact hand. Furthermore, the
control is not intuitive and the user only perceives visual feedback.
The main goals of the project are threefold: * Improve the control of a
myoelectric arm-prosthesis by increasing the number of degrees of
freedom using multichannel surface electromyography * Develop a
natural and intuitive feedback mechanism * Develop a virtual reality
training program to enable aimed early-phase rehabilitation.

CompanionAble
Description
Primary Application Field
: CompanionAble will provide the synergy of Robotics and Ambient
Intelligence technologies and their semantic integration to provide for a
care-giver's assistive environment. This will support the cognitive
stimulation and therapy management of the care-recipient. This is
mediated by a robotic companion (mobile facilitation) working
collaboratively with a smart home environment (stationary facilitation).
The distinguishing advantages of the CompanionAble Framework
Architecture arise from the objective of graceful, scalable and costeffective integration. Thus CompanionAble addresses the issues of social
inclusion and homecare of persons suffering from chronic cognitive
disabilities prevalent among the increasing European older population. A
participative and inclusive co-design and scenario validation approach will
drive the RTD efforts in CompanionAble; involving care recipients and
their close carers as well as the wider stakeholders. This is to ensure endto-end systemic viability, flexibility, modularity and affordability as well as
a focus on overall care support governance and integration with quality of
experience issues such as dignity-privacy-security preserving
responsibilities fully considered. The collaboration of leading
gerontologists, specialist elderly care institutions, industrial and academic
RTD partners, including a strong cognitive robotics and smart-house
capability makes for an excellent confluence of expertise for this
innovative project.

Vision in Mechatronics and Robotics
Description
: At the moment 2D-vision is often applied in industry to flexible
automate all kind of production processes.
In this project Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are being
used to be able to parallel implement the edition and analysis of
images. In this case the additional edition of images is not only
possible with the PC, but also with an embedded controller. This can
be applied in simple vision tasks like following objects and building 3Dimages. The three involved lectoraten have their own application of
the link between 3D-vision and low power systems combined with
embedded control systems. Avans applies it to gripper technology.
Hogeschool Utrecht uses it to improve the accuracy and velocity with
which small components are being placed. Fontys uses this technique
to expand the possibilities of robot platforms with 3D vision to object
detection and place recognition.

Motion Controlled Arm Support, McArm
Description
: The McArm project further builds on two smaller projects the ran in
2006 and 2007. At that time the proof of concept of a motion steered
and controlled dynamic arm support (exoskeleton) was realized,
which was revolutionary at that time. Now in a range of smaller
projects (a.o. with Maastricht University performing kinematics
studies) this work is continued. Its goals is to develop a wheelchair
born dynamic arm support that adds force to the arm of a
handicapped user over several (4 - 7) joints. In this concept the user is
still using his/her own muscle force and the system adds additional
force to this but not more than strictly needed - the 'Use it or, loose it'
principle. In this concept the arm scale for the human underarm is
measuring the forces applied and the user is direct in the control loop.
In addition to sensors and actuators balancing mechanisms are used.
The arm support should be small, light and very easy to use during the
demanding circumstances of daily life. In 2011 work may be continued
in one or more bigger projects and with other partners.

Remote Robotics
Description
Primary Application Field
: This project concerns design of robotic systems for applications in
unstructured environments, with particular focus on medical
applications. Being exposed to X-rays on a daily basis can be harmful
for health care workers. Developing a remote-controlled robot that
could take the X-rays is one way to reduce human exposure. The robot
will be designed for use in hospitals (curative medicine) and in
homecare (care-based services). With a few alterations, the robot will
be able to perform multiple tasks. Marketing the robots as cheaply as
possible will be key. In about seven years, the first affordable robot is
expected to roll off the assembly line.

TeleFlex
Description
Primary Application Field
: Surgical robotic systems are revolutionizing healthcare and medical
services. Laparoscopy is becoming more invasive while conventional
surgery is becoming less invasive. This has led to the emergence of the
NOTES (Natural Orifice Transluminal Endoscopic Surgery) and SILS (Single
Incision Laparoscopic Surgery) procedures, in which use of flexible
instruments is essential. A robotic control of these instruments inside the
body is both challenging and critical for achieving good surgical outcomes.
The TeleFLEX project is one of the initiatives of University of Twente to
design, and develop a state-of-the-art surgical robotic system for endo/transluminal endoscopic surgery, and carry out research on the enabling
technologies. The master-slave concept, which is the norm in robotic
surgery today and in robotic technology itself, can solve many of the
technical challenges encountered in conventional flexible endoscopic
surgery. The master side contains a master input device (e.g. a haptic
device or a manipulator) with a controller and other visual display devices.
The slave side includes an endoscope/ endoscopic platform, which
provides access channels for the flexible surgical instruments and other
accessories required for the particular intervention, controller and drive
system.

ReflexLeg: Intelligent and energy-efficient actuation and natural bidirectional control
interfacing for transfemoral prostheses
Description
: Although the most important function of a prosthesis for leg
amputees is the support of body weight, there is a need to put more
intelligence in the device in order to perform a larger variety of
tasks more efficiently, like stair ascend and descend, walking with
different speeds and on different surfaces, including slopes,
ambulation in complex and variable environments like buildings. For
this purpose, modern prostheses are equipped with artificial
controllers that alter the dynamic properties of the knee mechanism,
depending on external loads as measured with different sensors. Yet,
currently no prostheses exist that are integrated in the reflexive
neural motor control of the body and that mimic a number of
essential biomechanical principles of the body, like energy-storing
actuation that allows energy transfer between knee and ankle joints.
It is the objective of the current project to investigate these
principles, specifically: 1. Adjustable and energy-efficient passive
actuation that allows energy transfer between knee and ankle joints
and that can be modulated by control inputs from the body. 2.
Reflexive control, integrated with the physiological motor control of
the body. The approach to be investigated in the current project
consists of a controllable spring (or combination of springs)
combined with a reflexive control interface. The controllable spring
connects and actuates the prosthetic knee and ankle joints. The
reflexive control interface consists of ElectroMyoGraphic (EMG)
control and electro- or vibrotactile feedback. The EMG electrodes
will sense the activation of muscles in the stump and the tactile
feedback will be applied on the skin of the stump. In addition to this
solution, the haptic characteristics of the physical interface between
upper leg and prosthesis will be investigated and optimized for
maximum integration with the remaining reflexive control.

WikiTherapist
Description
: WikiTherapist facilitates therapists in developing technology-based therapy
programs on non conventional platforms like robots and tangible user
interfaces.
The subject of research is combining end-user programming and learning by
demonstration for easy creation of behaviors on a robotic platform that can be
used for therapy of autistic children. Within the project interactive scenarios
between the robot and the autistic children are developed with the help of
therapists and psychologists from Dr. LeoKannerhuis and ARC Cambridge. A
humanoid robot NAO is used as working platform which is enhanced with GPU
based robot command language that enables real-time processes to run in
parallel. This language is supplied by the company TiViPE.
The goal of the project is to create a web based community of therapists and
robot practitioners who co-create robot behaviors and scenarios with different
complexity. The expected result is an easy to control by non-specialists robotic
environment which is equipped with library of behaviors and scenarios that are
found useful for behavioral training of people with autism. The tools can be
used also in general context.

VirtuRob
Description
Primary Application Field
: In the Virturob project knowledge of virtual reality and robotics is
obtained. This knowledge is used for the realization of a technological
system for training of the disturbed arm and hand function of patients
with a neurological disease, such as cerebrovascular accident (CVA),
spinal cord injury (SCI) or traumatic brain injury (TBI). This
technological knowledge makes use of the state of the art insights on
motor control, motor (re) learning and neurological recovery. The
objective of the project is to acquire and make available technological
knowledge of Virtual Reality and Robotics in a form that can be used
for the development of a VirtuRob combination for the training of the
impaired arm and hand function of people with neurological
disorders. In more detail the project gathers information about the
effect of different feedback conditions during motor learning of the
arm; and the influence of cognitive dual tasks during the performance
of a motor task. Also a robotic device is build for the training of the
impaired arm for stroke survivors. This project is funded by Provincie
Overijssel, Provincie Gelderland and Ministry of Economic Affairs.

Added value of VR
Description
Primary Application Field
: To stimulate restoration of arm function after stroke, intensive and
task-specific training is essential. To implement this, the application of
virtual reality (VR) in rehabilitation is promising. Integration of stimuli
and feedback in a rehabilitation game, taking principles of motor
relearning into account, allows high motivation for patients during
training. Additionally, VR can automate and intensify treatment, since
patients can practice more independently, without the need for oneto-one supervision. Previous research of this group showed that arm
training using a specifically developed game for rehabilitation
(FurballHunt), combined with arm support, can improve reaching.
However, this pilot study did not discern between the effect of arm
support and the added value of training with a rehabilitation game.
The objective of this project is to obtain first insight into the effect of a
stimulus rich context, specifically developed for rehabilitation (rehab
game), with a less rich context (conventional exercises) during reach
training for restoration of arm function in chronic stroke patients. This
project is funded by `Wetenschappelijk College Fysiotherapie (WCF)
of the Koninklijk Nederlands Genootschap voor Fysiotherapie
(KNGF). The project runs within the research cluster Restoration of
Human Function and is led by Dr. A.I.R. Kottink-Hutten and Dr. G.B.

ROBAR - ROBot-supported Arm Rehabilitation in the early phase after stroke
Description
: After a stroke, many patients suffer from impaired motor function of
the arm. Optimal recovery of arm function is important to perform
activities of daily life independently. To stimulate restoration of arm
function after stroke intensive and task-specific training is essential.
For this, application of robotic systems in rehabilitation is promising.
More specifically, active movements can be facilitated by the use of
arm support, as shown by previous research by our group. One of the
biggest advantages of arm support using a robot is currently the
possibility to 'automate' therapy (a therapist can treat multiple
patients simultaneously), so that productivity of health care can
increase and cost can be reduced. In the past years, RRD has
developed a device that can support the arm in a smart way (the
Freebal), together with the University of Twente and Baat Medical.
This concept was further developed by the Swiss company Hocoma
into ArmeoBoom, in which arm support is combined with rehab
games. This system will be implemented in 7 rehabilitation centers
throughout the Netherlands in the scope of the ROBAR project. This is
possible due to a grant from Innovatieprogramma van Revalidatie
Nederland.

Sharing Control: feeling is believing
Description
: Manual control tasks like driving - are prone to human errors, which
may cause accidents. The conventional solution is to either fully
automate a task or to support the human with alerting systems. Both
approaches have inherent limitations, widely described in literature.
The solution of the future lies in shared control, where an intelligent
system assists the human with guiding forces. Control should
smoothly shift between human and machine, fully optimizing humanmachine interaction. The goal of this project is to develop the
fundamental knowledge needed to optimize shared control for
different users and tasks. Neuromuscular experiments and models will
form the basis for the design of prototype systems for vehicular
control tasks, which will be evaluated in available motion-based
simulators. The optimized guidance forces will keep the human in full
control, even when visually distracted; and allow fast neuromuscular
responses (200 ms.). The proposed shared control aims to be a
breakthrough in how we think about manual control, and the
methodology will apply to a variety of areas (tele-operation robotics,
exoskeletons, space robotics, wheel chair control).

AIROBOTS: Innovative aerial service robots for remote inspections by contact
Description
: The goal of the AIRobots project is to develop a new generation of
aerial service robots capable to support human beings in all those
activities which require the ability to interact actively and safely with
environments not constrained on ground but, indeed, freely in air. The
step forward with respect to the "classical" field of aerial robotics is to
realize aerial vehicles able to accomplish a large variety of
applications, such as inspection of buildings and large infrastructures,
sample picking, aerial remote manipulation, etc. The starting point is
an aerial platform whose aeromechanical configuration allows the
vehicle to interact with the environment in a non-destructive way and
to hover close to operating points. Rotary-wing aerial vehicles with
shrouded propellers represent the basic airframes which will be then
equipped with appropriate robotic end-effectors and sensors in order
to transform the aerial platform into an aerial service robot, a system
able to fly and to achieve robotic tasks. Advanced automatic control
algorithms will be conceived to govern the aerial platform which will
be remotely supervised by the operator with the use of haptic
devices. Particular emphasis will be given to develop advanced
human-in-the-loop and autonomous navigation control strategies
relying upon a cooperative and adaptive interaction between the onboard automatic control and the remote operator. Force and visual
feedback strategies will be investigated in order to transform the
aerial platform in a "flying hand" suitable for aerial manipulation.

ROSE: Energy-efficient design and control of mobile robotic sensor networks.
Description
: Networks have great potential to be applied to infrastructure
security, environment and habitat monitoring, industrial sensing,
traffic control, and so on. One of the challenges is that the
performance of such a robotic network is constrained by the limited
available energy supply (usually provided by the batteries carried by
each robotic sensor). It is therefore important to consider energy
scavenging techniques in the design of the systems. The aim of the
overall research project ROSE is to develop new energy-efficient
design methodologies and control strategies for robotic sensor
networks.

CROPS
Description
Primary Application Field
: CROPS will develop scientific know-how for a highly configurable,
modular and clever carrier platform that includes modular parallel
manipulators and intelligent tools (sensors, algorithms, sprayers,
grippers) that can be easily installed onto the carrier and are capable
of adapting to new tasks and conditions. Several technological
demonstrators will be developed for high value crops like greenhouse
vegetables, fruits in orchards, and grapes for premium wines. The
CROPS robotic platform will be capable of site-specific spraying
(targets spray only towards foliage and selective targets) and selective
harvesting of fruit (detects the fruit, determines its ripeness, moves
towards the fruit, grasps it and softly detaches it). Another objective
of CROPS is to develop techniques for reliable detection and
classification of obstacles and other objects to enable successful
autonomous navigation and operation in plantations and forests. The
agricultural and forestry applications share many research areas,
primarily regarding sensing and learning capabilities.

Ruud - robot to detect and control broad-leaved weed in grassland
Description
: Broad-leaved dock (Rumex obtusifolius) is a bothersome grassland
weed. Organic dairy farmers in particular have trouble dealing with
this weed. Dairy farmers who would like to switch to organic farming
are often hesitant to do so because they fear that broad-leaved dock
will get out of control once they can no longer use pesticides. Farmers'
study group "Biologisch West-Utrecht" has been looking for an
effective method to control docks. Manual removal is the most
effective method, but this method is physically demanding and timeconsuming. In recent years, new technologies have become available
to control weeds, notably vision-based detection, mechanical
destruction of the weed by means of a chopper, and autonomous
vehicles. The study group, Wageningen UR, Bioconnect, LaMi and
Samsom-Wilnis vof collaborate in a project to combine these
technologies. This will result in an affordable, practical robot to
control broad-leaved dock.

NIFTi
Description
Primary Application Field
: NIFTi investigates cognitive architectures which can meaningfully
sense, act and cooperate with humans in real-life environments.
When it comes to making cognitive architectures "cooperative,"
research has primarily focused on autonomy, and high-level
communication. Little or no attention has been given to making the
cognitive architecture adapt to the human in understanding the
environment, planning and acting, communicating. NIFTi picks up on
this: NIFTi puts the human factor into cognitive architectures. With as
application area the Urban Search and Rescue domain.

VIACTORS: Variable Impedance ACTuation systems embodying advanced interaction
behaviORS
Description
: Most of todays robots have rigid structures and actuators which
require complex software control algorithms and sophisticated
sensor systems in order to behave adaptable, compliant, and safe in
contact with unknown environments or with [Link], in
terms of energy efficiency, peak force and speed, these robots are
still considerably weaker than their biological archetypes. An
alternative design approach is to build actuators with physically
adjustable compliance and damping, which are able to store and
release mechanical energy, react softly when touching the
environment, and provide an intrinsic degree of safety, just like
muscles do. VIACTORS addresses the development and use of safe,
energy-efficient, and highly dynamic variable-impedance actuation
systems which will permit the embodiment of natural characteristics,
found in biological systems, into a new generation of mechatronic
systems. Target outcome of the project is that of obtaining the
intended physical interaction and motion behaviours of the robotic
system intrinsically by its physical structures to the maximum extent
possible. This will not only save computational and communication
costs for controlling the robot motion; it will also allow us to match
the task requirements in a natural and highly dynamic way as it can
be observed in biology and to provide a powerful, human-like
physical interface which can be accessed by higher (cognitive)
intelligence levels without having to care for basic motion generation
principles. This advance in technology will pave the way towards new
application fields, such as industrial co-workers, household robots,
advanced prostheses and rehabilitation devices, and autonomous
robots for exploration of space and hostile environments. Therefore,
results of this project will deeply impact applications where
successful task completion requires people and robots to collaborate
directly in a shared workspace or robots to move autonomously and
as efficiently as humans.

Description
Primary Application Field
: This project, executed together with the ICS/ES EE group at TU/E,
deals with setting up methods and prototype tools for a multiple-view
approach in mechatronic system design. Via multiple views,
verification and showing cross-view design-change influences will be
achieved using co-simulation as vehicle. With this approach, we aim to
relax the tension between several dependability issues (like reliability
and robustness), while keeping design time (and thus design costs)
under control. First methodological ideas and tool prototypes are
tried out.
