Infrastructure-brokered collision avoidance is an Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) application built on top of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) links. An edge-hosted ITS service receives information from road-side sensors (or CAM messages in V2X-enabled vehicles) and detects impending collisions where vehicles cannot sense or contact each other directly. If so happens, it issues a warning message through net...
This work describes the development and implementation of a linear trajectory controller in a five degree of freedom (DOF) robot manipulator (Filho and Quintero 2013). An open loop control architecture was designed and embedded in a Field Programable Gate Array (FPGA), for the first threeDOF. In this paper, we present the direct and inverse kinematics and the Jacobian of the manipulator, used to extract the con...
The quest for comfort and practicality is commonplace in contemporary society, but such benefits are still not offered satisfactorily to all. Among these, special attention is given to people with Disabilities, who often do not enjoy the latest technologies in applications and automated systems because they do not have their needs covered by these technologies (Domingo 2012). The aim of this work was to develop...
