Human-Robot Collaboration Enabled By Real-Time Vision Tracking, Travis Deegan Jan 2021

Human-Robot Collaboration Enabled By Real-Time Vision Tracking, Travis Deegan

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The number of robotic systems in the world is growing rapidly. However, most industrial robots are isolated in caged environments for the safety of users. There is an urgent need for human-in-the-loop collaborative robotic systems since robots are very good at performing precise and repetitive tasks but lack the cognitive ability and soft skills of humans. To fill this need, a key challenge is how to enable a robot to interpret its human co-worker’s motion and intention. This research addresses this challenge by developing a collaborative human-robot interface via innovations in computer vision, robotics, and system integration techniques. Specifically, this …


Past To Present (P2p): Road Thermal Image Colorization, Yuseong Park Jan 2020

Past To Present (P2p): Road Thermal Image Colorization, Yuseong Park

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Thermal image colorization into realistic RGB image is a challenging task. Thermal cameras are easily to detect objects in particular situation (e.g. darkness and fog) that the human eyes cannot detect. However, it is difficult to interpret the thermal image with human eyes. Enhancing thermal image colorization is an important task to improve these areas. The results of the existing colorization method still have color ambiguities, distortion, and blurriness problems. This paper focused on thermal image colorization using pix2pix network architecture based on Generative Adversarial Net (GAN). Pix2pix is a model that transforms thermal image into RGB image, but our …
