Wire Harness Assembly: A Review of Gripper Technologies, Automation, and Robotic Manipulation

Robotic wire harness assembly remains difficult to automate because the harness’s physical behavior must be reconciled with the requirements of industrial assembly across a sequence of dependent operations. This review addresses that problem by providing a unified view of the research landscape and by clarifying how ex...

Model Predictive Control for Visual-Servo Tracking in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles: A Scoping Review

Model predictive control (MPC) has become a central receding-horizon strategy for robotic systems subject to constraints, uncertainty and multiple objectives. In unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), its integration with visual servoing makes it possible to formulate tracking problems directly in the image space, keep targe...

A Multi-Camera Temporal Fusion for False Alarm Suppression in Edge-Based Weapon Surveillance

A lightweight Adaptive Multi-Camera Temporal Fusion (ACTF) framework that combines confidence-aware evidence separation, temporal persistence, and short-window cross-camera validation at the decision level, thereby confirming detections without requiring additional neural-network inference is proposed.

INDI: A Low-Cost LLM-Enabled Multimodal Campus Guide Robot

University technology campuses contain specialized laboratories, academic programs, and services that can be difficult for first-time visitors to identify. This paper presents INDI, a custom mobile campus guide robot that combines spoken interaction, synthesized speech, touchscreen feedback, animated facial states, hea...

Analysis of YOLOv26 Variants (Nano to Extra-Large) for Real-Time Weapon Detection in Video Surveillance

Real-time weapon detection in video surveillance systems is a critical requirement for proactive security applications, particularly under the computational and latency constraints imposed by edge artificial intelligence deployments. While the YOLO family of object detectors has undergone continuous architectural evolu...
