Abstract: Multi-robot conflict resolution is a challenging problem, especially in dense environments where many robots must operate safely in a confined space. Centralized solutions do not scale well with the number of robots in dynamic scenarios: a centralized communication can cause bottlenecks and may not be robust enough when channels […]

The conflict on the Internet between individual security and ongoing monitoring is the focus of the 29. Moerser Universitätstage, a joint series of research talks organized by the UDE and the Sparkasse Niederrhein. On October 27th Prof. Pedro José Marrón from the University Duisburg-Essen will talk about the question "Bits Byts, […]
Abstract: Radio signals can be used to detect the presence of a person (target) in an environment by analysing the fluctuations in the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI). The velocity of the target can be estimated by examining the sequence of disturbances in consecutive radio links over a period of […]
In 2014 the University Duisburg-Essen and the University of Manitoba agreed on a Memorandum of Understanding, lead managed by Prof. Marrón and Prof. Eskicioglu, to foster the collaboration between both Universities. Within this collaboration this year`s visit was already the third visit of Prof. Eskicioglu at the University Duisburg-Essen. Prof. […]
Dr. Jesús Capitán focuses his research on robotics and artificial intelligence, more concretely, on data fusion and decision-making for multi-robot systems. He has been collaborating with NES to promote different activities in the NES Robotics Lab. First, he has helped establishing our indoor testbed for localizing and navigating drones in […]
Paper Details: Falk Brockmann, Sascha Jungen, Chia-Yen Shih, Marcus Handte and Pedro José Marrón: Accurate Event Detection and Velocity Estimation in Wireless Environments Abstract: Radio signals can be used to detect the presence of a person (target) in an environment by analysing the fluctuations in the Received Signal Strength Indicator […]
Abstract: One of the main goals of the pervasive computing domain is to provide the user with task support for everyday tasks. This task support should be realized by pervasive applications that are seamlessly integrated in the environment for example into embedded, resource-constrained devices such as everyday objects. The interaction […]
Abstract: The advancements in the field of mobile computing over the last decade have enabled the scientific community to expedite the theoretical and experimental work to achieve the vision of ubiquitous computing. As ubiquitous computing aims to provide seamless and distraction free task support to its users, one of the […]
The project focused on the position estimation and control of autonomous systems and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). For more information visit http://www.ec-safemobil-project.eu/ and NES.
