  • Creating and Assessing Cozmo Behaviors for Expressing Emotion

    Creator:
    Chan, Lilian C.
    Abstract:
    As human-robot interaction becomes more commonplace, roboticists should understand how robot behaviors are perceived by people to avoid misunderstandings. In our lab, we are exploring the use of a Cozmo as an interactive, break-taking aid in workplace settings. Before our interactive aid can be released into the wild, we must...

  • The Design and Implementation of a Motor Controller

    Creator:
    Williamson, Tyler J.
    Abstract:
    This thesis describes the design and implementation of a motor controller that is a customizable and cost effective replacement for the motor controllers used by Edwards Robotics Company (ERC). Extensive research of comparable products available in the market was conducted. The research formed the basis for the design specifications of...

  • Engineering a Profiling System for a Robotic Oceanographic Surface Sampler

    Creator:
    Shannon, Robert J.
    Abstract:
    ROSS (Robotic Oceanographic Surface Sampler) is an autonomous boat, equipped with oceanographic sensors, used for studying the ocean’s surface. One of its advantages over traditional research vessels is its ability to sample near glaciers, an area too dangerous for manned ships. In order to properly ascertain deep ocean heat’s effect...

  • Examination of Dielectric Properties of BaTiO3-SrTiO3 Based Systems

    Creator:
    Trobough, Nathaniel D.
    Abstract:
    This thesis examines the dielectric properties of two systems based on the perovskite materials barium titanate and strontium titanate. A solid solution was created starting with these base materials and then adding varying amounts of bismuth-zinc titanate and sodium niobate. These compositions were calcined and sintered at temperatures determined to...

  • Resiliency of United States Power Grids to Inclement Weather Conditions

    Creator:
    Trevis, Kyle R.
    Abstract:
    The United States depends on the electrical grid infrastructure for nearly every facet of its operation. Understanding how inclement weather affects the reliability of the grid and what the U.S. is doing to ensure its resiliency will be a key step moving forward into the 21st century as global climate...

  • Radioactive Isotope Matching for an Embedded System

    Creator:
    Wagner, Samuel T.
    Abstract:
    The goal of this project is to create a lightweight radioactive isotope identification program for an embedded system using the C programming language to perform isotope matching on a subset of isotopes. First, the physics behind radioactive spectra and their key features are explained. Next, the characteristics of the spectra...

  • Leveraging transformer encoder output for effective token summary in simultaneous translation

    Creator:
    Raffel, Matthew
    Abstract:
    Simultaneous speech-to-text translation remains a difficult yet important problem for modern machine learning models whereby a text translation is generated concurrently with receiving partial speech inputs. One state-of-the-art simultaneous speech-to-text model is the augmented memory transformer whose encoder breaks a speech input into fixed-size overlapping segments composed of left, right,...

  • Prototyping of Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting Circuitry for IoT Devices

    Creator:
    Webb, Derek
    Abstract:
    Due to the advancement of incredibly low power microcontrollers and small form factor integrated circuits, energy harvesting can be considered as an alternative, low power source for remote ocean sensing and measurements. To demonstrate the effectiveness of harvesting thermoelectric energy contained in the temperature differential between ocean surface water and...

  • Implementation of Distributed Localized Communications

    Creator:
    Snyder, Thomas
    Abstract:
    Artificial collectives are useful for accomplishing tasks that require teamwork from multiple simple robots. Multiple robot and collective testbeds have been developed, yet none stay committed to leverage the local interactions, group size, and imperfect information assumptions that strengthen biological collectives. A review of the collective and multiple robot literature,...
