Design of twin foldable and tiltable rotors flight vehicle model
(University of Waikato, 2017)With the increasing number of private cars, traffic congestion is getting worse. Compared to the ground, there is a wider space in the sky due to its three-dimensional space. In consideration of this, flight vehicles would ... -
Development of an aluminium filled epoxy insert using perfactory rapid prototyping technique and electroless nickel plating for low volume plastic injection moulding
(University of Waikato, 2015)In this research, a rapid tool for low volume production plastic injection moulding is designed, developed, and tested on an injection moulding machine. The tool is designed as a cavity insert of injection mould for plastic ... -
Extended Kalman Filter SLAM Implementation for a Differential Robot with LiDAR
(The University of Waikato, 2018)SLAM is an approach deployed in robotics to develop autonomous mobile robots. These robots have been deployed in numerous fields such as manufacturing, aerospace navigation, and other areas deemed dangerous to humans. SLAM ... -
Incorporating contact area in soft finger grasp models
(The University of Waikato, 2021)The ability to grasp is a significant function of many robotic hands, whether it be for fruit-picking or manufacturing tasks. Two major theories often used in conjunction to model grasping are Nguyen’s theorem and Coulomb’s ... -
Mana Motuhake Ringa: The non-invasive neural interface based artificial hand
(The University of Waikato, 2019)Ten million people on the earth at any given time suffer from the loss or lack of a limb. Three million of these are upper extremity amputees. No matter the cause or reason for amputation the amputees’ life is never the ... -
Modified serpentine motion of the snake robot
(University of Waikato, 2015)The frequent occurrence of earthquake in New Zealand drives the research on snake robot for search and rescue operation because of its elongated body shape and locomotion mimicry of the biological snake. Both features are ... -
Prismatic axis, differential-drive robotic kiwifruit harvester for reduced cycle time
(The University of Waikato, 2018)The New Zealand kiwifruit industry is currently worth over NZD 2 billion in annual sales revenue, this is forecast to double within the next 5-10 years due to a significant increase in production volume. The industry is ... -
Real-time New Zealand sign language translator using convolution neural network
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Over the past quarter of a century, machine Learning performs an essential role in information technology revolution. From predictive internet web browsing to autonomous vehicles; machine learning has become the heart of ... -
Surface Reconstruction by Triangular Mesh of Models with Uneven Density and with Hole
(University of Waikato, 2015)With the fast development of computer software, 3D computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) are being improved rapidly and have been commonly used in industry, especially in medical area and ... -
The Development of a Brain Controlled Robotic Prosthetic Hand
(University of Waikato, 2015)An anthropomorphic, brain controlled, under actuated, Prosthetic hand has been designed and developed for upper extremity amputees. The hands function is based on micro servo actuation and the use of coupling links between ... -
Time-of-flight perception pipeline for selective green asparagus harvesting: Theory and application
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Generally declining labour markets, coupled with a significant increase in the projected global population have raised concerns over a potential food scarcity crisis. In response to this, the agricultural industry is ...
