The CoCoMaps project has been invited to exhibit our technology at the Hannover Messe 2017 in Germany. We will be showcasing our turn-taking technology running on the Psyclone 2 platform.
Demo 1 went well with the robots successfully identifying their human partners – and the video editing is finally complete. In this video you can watch the full demo.
Simple robots operate through a perception-action cycle, or loop, which allows them to make decisions and form a response based on the information they receive on each cycle. Adding layers in a robot’s perception-action cycle enables it to “think outside the loop”, supporting parallel information processing on different levels simultaneously, thus making it generally more…
The video and report for Demo 2 are now available to see.
Demo 1 produced a lot of data and we are working our way through it now. Preliminary figures suggest that the CCMCatalog enabled the robots to collaborate far more efficiently when working together and that the robots were able to detect and track humans in the scene. Stay tuned for more results…
The stage has now been set for our robots to show off their capabilities so far. The robots are to map out an area which they scan for humans using search patterns. Each human detected will be identified using facial recognition. All information is instantly shared with the other robot via the CCMCatalog. Let’s see…
