In the project we have developed new methods for autonomous inspection, maintenance and ... -
AUV Pipeline Following using Reinforcement Learning
Fjerdingen, Sigurd Aksnes; Kyrkjebø, Erik; Transeth, Aksel Andreas (Chapter, 2010)This paper analyzes the application of several reinforcement learning techniques for continuous state and action spaces to pipeline following for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). Continuous space SARSA is compared ... -
Bevegelsesplanlegging og regulering av mobile robotmanipulatorer
Myhre, Ulrich Solli (Master thesis, 2011)Mobile robot manipulators will be prevalent in addressing many future needs such as contributing to the caring for an aging population, as well as monitoring environmental pollution and removing contamination. However, a ... -

Bakken, Trond; Johnsen, Stig Ole; Holmstrøm, Sture; Merz, Mariann; Transeth, Aksel Andreas; Grøtli, Esten Ingar; Risholm, Petter; Storvold, Rune (Research report, 2019)Formålet med denne rapporten er å vise eksempler på bruk av fjernstyrte og autonome droner i petroleumssektoren og vise hvilke utviklingstrender innen droneteknologi som er viktige. Utfordringer og muligheter for bruk av ... -
Image Segmentation of Corrosion Damages in Industrial Inspections using State-of-the-Art Neural Networks
Fondevik, Simen Keiland (Master thesis, 2020)Denne masteroppgaven studerer avanserte bildesegmenteringsalgoritmer for automatisk korrosjonsskade-segmentering. Automatisk bildeanalyse er nødvendig for å prosessere all data som samles inn med dronebaserte industrielle ... -
Model Based on C/C++ for Simulation of a 3D Snake Robot with Experimental Validation
Rogne, Robert Harald (Master thesis, 2008)A simulator based on the Open Dynamics Engine (ODE) is presented in this report. The simulator is validated experimentally with varying results, but simulation speed and stability of the simulator is excellent. This report ... -
Modeling and Path-following for a snake robot with active wheels
Murugendran, Boathymathava; Transeth, Aksel Andreas; Fjerdingen, Sigurd Aksnes (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2009)Snake robots with active wheels provide interesting opportunities within many areas such as inspection and maintenance and search and rescue operations. The highly-articulated body of a snake robot combined with the ... -
Modelling and Control of Snake Robots
Transeth, Aksel Andreas (Doktoravhandlinger ved NTNU, 1503-8181; 2008:2, Doctoral thesis, 2008)Snake robots have the potential of contributing vastly in areas such as rescue missions, fire-fighting and maintenance where it may either be too narrow or too dangerous for personnel to operate. This thesis reports novel ... -
