description: The use of extended reality (XR) for enabling “telepresence” of robotic systems has become more prevalent in the past decade. However, the technology leap from commercially available robots to more extreme environment robotic systems, such as industrial and space robots, has yet to be widely demonstrated. The Space Systems Laboratory at the University of Maryland is developing XR control interfaces using the Unity game engine to more intuitively command dexterous space robots. Utilizing the Unity game engine lends several benefits, such as high fidelity dynamic physics simulation, customizability through the use of C# scripting, and the built-in robotic features provided through the Unity Robotics Hub. Unity, being a game engine, is able to simulate different environments, such as microgravity and the surfaces of celestial bodies such as the Moon or Mars. This allows for the creation of immersive scenes that robots can be simulated in to demonstrate the intractability of the system in the desired environment. Accurate robotic models can be generated in Unity using ROS’s Unified Robot Description Files (URDFs) and Unity’s “ArticulationBody” component for joint simulation, which provide state feedback such as joint position, velocity, and torque, as well as forces and torques being applied to the robot body. The robot model can then be used to either visualize a robot by sending state data from a control program to Unity, or to command a robot by sending state data from Unity to the control program. Incorporating XR devices such as the Microsoft Hololens or the Oculus Quest allow for immersive control and visualization of space robotic systems in a desired environment.

description: Some mammalian and fish double-stranded (ds)RNA viruses hijack lipid droplets (LDs) during their replication cycle, however, our understanding of how avian dsRNA viruses interact with LDs is incomplete. Here, we report data from avian reovirus (ARV) and infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV)- infected cells. Following ARV infection, there was a significant increase in the number (p < 0.0001) and size (p < 0.0001) of LDs compared to mock-infected controls, 6-24 hours post infection (hpi), in both immortalized LMH cells and primary gut cultures. Treatment with the ACCA inhibitor, TOFA, reduced ARV-mediated LD induction, indicating de novo lipogenesis was partially involved in their formation. Moreover, ARV infection decreased the expression of PGC-1α (p < 0.05) and ELOVL2 (p < 0.001). Previous reports demonstrated that inhibition of PGC-1α and ELOVL expression in mice led to cellular lipid accumulation and hepatic steatosis, suggesting ARV could upregulate LD synthesis by decreasing expression of these genes. However, it is unclear whether LD induction was pro- or anti-viral, since both TOFA treatment to inhibit LD synthesis, and oleic acid/palmitic acid treatment to overexpress LDs did not significantly alter ARV replication. In contrast, infection with IBDV did not substantially increase the size or number of LDs, or significantly reduce the expression of PGC-1α and ELOVL2. In contrast to some other dsRNA viruses like rotavirus and mammalian orthoreovirus, neither ARV nor IBDV cytoplasmic puncta colocalized with LDs. Taken together, our findings demonstrate that the two dsRNA viruses had distinct effects on cellular lipid metabolism.

description: The Chesapeake Bay offers a scenic escape but struggles with excessive algae growth, particularly in forested wetlands. To address this, we are developing a robotic fish with a unique drivetrain that allows it to navigate both water and land, targeting hard-to-reach landscapes - like forested wetlands - as this is where excessive algae growth concentrates. Throughout our research, we discovered the Pleco fish - a fish that can swim on water and walk on land using its tail fin. We believe replicating this locomotion system will advance the development of algae cleanup robots. Because of this, we are designing our robot to use a dual-gated system; the robot will have one drivetrain with two functions - swimming and walking. To develop our robot, we first focused on three key areas: the body, tail, and locomotion system (swimming and walking). We built a prototype that navigates water and makes rudimentary walking motions on land. However, it uses two swimming and walking movement systems, which are still limited. We tested the robot’s aquatic abilities via a trial run in a controlled, clean pool at the University of Maryland, College Park’s Neutral Buoyancy Research Facility. We are trying to iterate the design of the current drivetrain system and integrate the swimming and walking capabilities into one dual-gated system. This system should allow the robot to swim and walk on water without utilizing separate movement systems. We hope these new iterations will bring us closer to replicating the locomotion of the pleco fish and help empower researchers and engineers to develop robotic platforms for cleaning algae in forested wetlands - a future of an algae-free bay.

Structure Collapse Search

description: Many high-stress situations can be difficult to navigate for first responders. Scenes such as active fires and building collapses require precise response tactics in order to minimize risk to first responders and victims alike. Disaster response tends to leave outcomes up to chance as a result of the unpredictable nature of these situations. Introducing robots into disaster response may help reduce uncertainty. Specifically, engineering robots to perform reconnaissance and relay critical information could greatly mitigate the risk posed to first responders entering dangerous scenes. My aim is to design a robot that possesses the gliding and crawling capabilities of the draco lizard. Draco lizards have unique wings that are used to glide amongst trees. My goal is to incorporate this gliding system into the robot, enabling it to be deployed to disaster sites with ease and reducing the workload for first responders. Equipped with cameras, the robot will be able to relay footage of the disaster scene for monitoring. Additionally, a thermal sensing system permits the transmission of quantitative data on potentially hazardous conditions, aiding in the locating of victims and ensuring informed and safer rescue operations.

description: Language serves as a powerful tool facilitating effective communication across diverse cultures globally. However, individuals facing language barriers, such as those with hearing disabilities, encounter difficulties expressing themselves to the world [15]. The existence of multiple sign languages worldwide compounds this challenge, as the unique gestures of each language create barriers to mutual understanding. To address this, people turn to mobile applications like Handtalk, Jeenie, and ASL Pocket Sign for communication and learning due to their affordability and accessibility [1, 6, 7]. Despite their benefits, challenges persist, including limited vocabulary signs leading to feature constraints, inconsistencies in displayed content, and a lack of multimedia utilization affecting user-friendliness, effectiveness, and performance [3]. Enhancing applications for barrier-free communication and addressing gaps in existing technology, the research focuses on the challenges individuals face due to the absence of suitable communication technologies, especially for those familiar with different sign languages worldwide [6]. A thorough analysis was conducted to address the identified issues with existing applications and platforms, examining their strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement through competitive analysis. Innovations were devised using research papers and innovative ideas from applications to improve overall usability and effectiveness. The proposed application stands out by offering a selection of multiple sign languages, including widely used ones like ASL, BSL, FSL, etc [18]. This approach eliminates the need for users to switch between different applications, distinguishing it from some existing solutions. Prioritizing globally used sign languages further enhances inclusivity in our application [18]. Introducing a live sign language translator, inspired by technology like Slait [19], revolutionizes video calls and meetings by providing real-time sign language translation into text captions, improving communication efficiency [19]. Unlike platforms using human translators, such as Jeenie [8], the proposed solution feature ensures user privacy and cost-effectiveness. Additionally, drawing inspiration from engaging platforms like Goodreads and Duolingo, we aim to overcome content limitations in existing applications. Our platform encourages user interaction and engagement by incorporating interactive individual and group activities and gamifying the learning experience [4,8]. These implementations aim to elevate the user experience and usability of the application. The research identified significant issues and system gaps, proposing solutions based on existing features in other domains. The subsequent sections will provide detailed insights into the literature review and the process behind these advancements.

description: Characterization of debris flow is critical to both risk assessment and hazard mitigation. Recent technologies enable onsite environmental monitoring sensors for geological disaster monitoring. However, the spatiotemporal understanding of debris flow in remote mountainous areas is still limited due to difficulties in observation networks and its complex driving conditions. Here we apply a coupled surface–subsurface hydrological model to examine the characteristics of the water movements near debris flow sites in southwest China. Our approach captured the temporal dynamics of infiltration, redistribution of soil moisture, groundwater storage, and lateral groundwater fluxes. The lateral groundwater flux and groundwater storage were informative indicators in identifying debris flow location. Such informativeness was only effective when hourly dynamics were analysed. Our findings provide new insight into quantifying debris flow susceptibility. This study suggests that the coupled surface–subsurface watershed modelling approach can be informative for preliminary monitoring, planning and management of debris flow.

Tackling In-Store Picking Operations by leveraging Proximal Policy Optimization
Creators: name: Miguel Cardoso Moreira, Tiago

description: This dissertation is about tackling the in-store picking challenges retailers face that come up with the new grocery shopping paradigm of integrating the online channel with the physical channel following an omnichannel approach that can better respond to the different kinds of demand customers have. It is motivated by the growing efforts that serving customers in a competitive market requires from the customer’s point of view - where keeping the service level as high as possible is important - and from the retailer’s point of view - where being efficient in its operations is important to keep their costs low while providing better services. As such, the goal of the dissertation was to train an agent to learn a picking policy using Proximal Policy Optimization, a deep Reinforcement Learning algorithm, capable of travelling the minimum possible distance and avoiding encounters with physical customers in an environment modelled as a Markov Decision Process. To do so, the first step was to devise a set of features that would drive the learning process. Followed by that, came the creation of synthetic stores with different sizes. A hyperparameter tuning technique was employed to tailor the hyperparameters that serve as input to the model to each configuration and then do a more extensive training process with the sets of hyperparameters that achieved better performance. The results were tested and then based on the stability of the training process and the performance a transfer learning technique was reproduced to verify if it was possible to retrain an agent that was trained to do a simpler task in a more complex one. Finally, this strategy was employed in a real world store configuration, in which the store was divided into subsections that were sequentially added to the training process. Some important real world considerations were not implemented which leaves room for future work regarding employing this methodology in driving efficient in-store picking in real world scenarios within other parameters. The obtained results validate this approach for the real world scenario as the learning phase reached a value of 0.95 encounters per product picked and 77.28 reward per product picked.
