This book was released on 2024-06-24 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As society transitions into the digital age, the demand for advanced robotics and autonomous systems has remained unchanged. However, the field faces significant challenges bridging the gap between current capabilities and the potential for brilliant, autonomous machines. While exact and efficient, current robotic systems need more sophistication and adaptability of human intelligence. This limitation restricts their application in complex and dynamic environments, hindering their ability to realize their potential fully. Multidisciplinary Applications of AI Robotics and Autonomous Systems addresses these challenges by presenting cutting-edge research and innovative robotics and autonomous systems solutions. By exploring topics such as digital transformation, IoT, AI, and cloud-native computing paradigms, readers will understand the latest advancements in the field. The book delves into theoretical frameworks, computational models, and experimental approaches, offering insights to help researchers and practitioners develop more intelligent and autonomous machines.

Download or read book Enhanced Living Environments written by Ivan Ganchev and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-18 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book was prepared as a Final Publication of the COST Action IC1303 “Algorithms, Architectures and Platforms for Enhanced Living Environments (AAPELE)”. The concept of Enhanced Living Environments (ELE) refers to the area of Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) that is more related with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Effective ELE solutions require appropriate ICT algorithms, architectures, platforms, and systems, having in view the advance of science and technology in this area and the development of new and innovative solutions that can provide improvements in the quality of life for people in their homes and can reduce the financial burden on the budgets of the healthcare providers. The aim of this book is to become a state-of-the-art reference, discussing progress made, as well as prompting future directions on theories, practices, standards, and strategies related to the ELE area. The book contains 12 chapters and can serve as a valuable reference for undergraduate students, post-graduate students, educators, faculty members, researchers, engineers, medical doctors, healthcare organizations, insurance companies, and research strategists working in this area.

Download or read book Unmanned Aerial Vehicle: Applications in Agriculture and Environment written by Ram Avtar and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book showcases how new and emerging technologies like Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are trying to provide solutions to unresolved socio-economic and environmental problems. Unmanned vehicles can be classified into five different types according to their operation. These five types are unmanned ground vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles, unmanned surface vehicles (operating on the surface of the water), unmanned underwater vehicles, and unmanned spacecraft. Unmanned vehicles can be guided remotely or function as autonomous vehicles. The technology has a wide range of uses including agriculture, industry, transport, communication, surveillance and environment applications. UAVs are widely used in precision agriculture; from monitoring the crops to crop damage assessment. This book explains the different methods in which they are used, providing step-by-step image processing and sample data. It also discusses how smart UAVs will provide unique opportunities for manufacturers to utilise new technological trends to overcome the current challenges of UAV applications. The book will be of great interest to researchers engaged in forest carbon measurement, road patrolling, plantation monitoring, crop yield estimation, crop damage assessment, terrain modelling, fertilizer control, and pest control.
