LineScout Power Line Robot: Characterization of<br />

a UTM-30LX LIDAR for Obstacle Detection<br />

Nicolas Pouliot, Pierre-Luc Richard, and Serge Montambault<br />

Hydro-Québec’s Research Institute (IREQ), Canada<br />

• Although popular, LIDAR obstacle<br />

detection was never before applied<br />

for Power Line Robot applications<br />

• Before its introduction onto<br />

LineScout plateform, formal<br />

characterization of the Hokuyo<br />

UTM-30LX LIDAR is realized<br />

• LIDAR’s performances while<br />

scanning cylindrical objects and<br />

power line cable samples are also<br />

assessed.<br />

• Preliminary analysis and detection<br />

criteria appear as promising<br />

14:30–14:45 WedDT3.3<br />

Vehicle Localization in Mountainous<br />

Gravelled Paths<br />

Yoichi Morales and Takashi Tsubouchi<br />

Systems and Information Engineering University of Tsukuba, Japan<br />

Shigeru Sarata<br />

Field Systems Research, Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, Japan<br />

• Vehicle localization in real mountainous<br />

non-paved roads of a quarry<br />

• For 3D elevation map elaboration using<br />

data from dead reckoning, RTK-GPS and<br />

a laser sensor<br />

• Terrain traversability analysis is performed<br />

and scan points are voted in an elevation<br />

map which is probabilistically updated<br />

• Localization experiments were evaluated<br />

towards RTK-GPS used as ground truth.<br />

Mobile Robotic Fabrication on Construction<br />

Sites: dimRob<br />

Volker Helm, Selen Ercan, Fabio Gramazio, and Matthias Kohler<br />

Architecture and Digital Fabrication, ETH Zürich, Switzerland<br />

• In dimRob (ECHORD - European Clearing<br />

House for Open Robotics Development,<br />

7 th Framework Programme) viable<br />

applications for mobile robotic units on<br />

construction sites are explored.<br />

• The aim is also to build upon innovative<br />

man-machine interaction paradigms via<br />

the cooperation of the precision of<br />

machine with innate cognitive human<br />

skills.<br />

• dimRob is intended as a first step in the<br />

evolution of mobile robotics for<br />

architecture on construction sites.<br />

<strong>2012</strong> IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems<br />

–153–<br />

The fabrication unit of dimRob:<br />

An industrial robot, ABB IRB<br />

4600, mounted on a compact<br />

mobile track system that is<br />

designed to fit through a standard<br />

door frame on construction sites<br />

14:45–15:00 WedDT3.4<br />

Casting Device for Search and Rescue<br />

Aiming Higher and Faster Access in Disaster Site<br />

Hideyuki Tsukagoshi, Eyri Watari, Kazutaka Fuchigami,<br />

and Ato Kitagawa Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan<br />

• As a new tool for rescue<br />

operation in dangerous<br />

buildings, a method for casting<br />

and fixing a tube to collect<br />

information is proposed.<br />

• To realize it, a deformable<br />

anchor ball, a retrieving<br />

device, and a gondola robot<br />

are introduced.
