Centre de recherche d'Hydro-Québec (IREQ)

Design of multifunctional lifting equipment

Arjo

The project involves designing an assistance algorithm for a mobile robot to optimize the effectiveness of sit-to-stand and walking training in the context of early mobilization. The mobile robot is composed of a platform containing a robotic arm, which can deploy forces directly to the user's body through the ...

Adaptive Robot Control for Learning and Reproduction of Artwork

Acrylic robotics

The present era witnesses an upsurge in the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics within the realm of art, with a particular emphasis on enhancing the quality of artwork, notably in the domain of painting. This project encompasses two primary objectives: firstly, acquiring proficiency in learning and replicating an ...

Collaborative robot tasked with sanding gypsum walls

RCM

Nowadays, many building contractors use modular construction, where various parts of a building are partially or completely built on an assembly line and then put together on the delivery site. Building interior modules often involve building and finishing plasterboard walls, including closing joints between panels and hiding fasteners or defects ...

Combination of an optical encoder and an external sensor to estimate cable length and tension

RBot9

RBot9 has developed the RoCap, a cable-driven parallel robot (CDPR) for aircraft inspection, maintenance and manufacturing applications. In order to facilitate the collaboration between the RoCap and its operator, we would like to improve two aspects of this robot: (1) we would like to facilitate the redeployment of the robot ...

Improving robotic manipulation through intelligent multimodal perception

Robotiq

Robotic systems have challenges to grasp and manipulate objects. The grasping process could be described in three main stages: Detection, planning and Execution. The foundation to complete a task is to have Generalizing methods for the new objects, environment and tasks which could be quite difficult due to uncertainty and ...

From craft to robot an innovation in industrial method

Kinova

The evaluation of manufacturing is very complex, in the medical and industrial fields. The application of several theories on production capacity and the processes involved will be put into practice in this project in order to validate the hypotheses and assertions in previous studies. Automation in the manufacturing field is ...

Sim-to-Real using reinforcement learning applied to collaborative robots

Thales-cortAIx

My research project is taking place in the 3IT of the University of Sherbrooke under the supervision of Pr Wael Suleiman. The main objective of my research will be to reduce the gap between simulation learning and real learning in the field of collaborative robot control. To achieve this, I ...

Collaborative robot tasked with sanding gypsum walls

RCM

In the context of prefabricated house with gypsum walls, the building step of sanding the left-over plaster used for covering screw holes and joints between the gypsum sheets (on the walls, the ceiling and the corners), is a laborious task. The objective of the project is to detect the areas ...
