In this paper, we propose a data driven approach to predict the appropriate bending angle for a soft gripper to effectively grasp objects of different shapes and orientations from their ultrasonic ...

A classification-guided regression network is designed for the prediction task. On an experimental setup, prediction accuracies (for bend angle) of approximately 80% are obtained. The ultrasonic ...

For the second article in this series, we convert the block diagram of the MPPT solar charge controller into a functioning circuit. As always with power electronics, the main focus is on the currents ...

Solar cells have, over time, become an entirely commonplace component in a myriad of different sizes and applications, becoming part of our daily lives. Let’s look at them in a brief ...
