As a result of the calls for reform in mathematics education and the ever-changing nature of mathematics, today's teachers face the challenge of teaching unfamiliar content in ways that are equally unfamiliar. In view of this challenge, the purpose of this study was to investigate middle school teachers' subject matter...
This paper presents a method of implementing real-time apple detection for closed-loop control to approach apples for grabbing. The approach is to train two known real-time object detection networks–the Faster R-CNN and YOLOv5–on a novel dataset to verify that it is possible to achieve maximum average precision (mAP) above 50\%...
A technique is presented for obtaining high resolution root locus plots and Bode diagrams. This is done by translating the origin of coordinates to the area of interest by an appropriate change of variable. The method is applicable to hand calculations or use of a potential analog computer. Examples include...
Recently there has been a large amount of research into basic human movement as a baseline for robotic motion. Robotic grasping is a challenging problem for a number of reasons. One of which is that it is difficult to accurately know the interaction between the hand and the object, especially...
