中文摘要 AI 辅助

连续体机器人常工作于不确定环境中,准确的状态估计对安全交互至关重要。估计的不确定性在空间上本就不均匀:置信度随测量可用位置变化。全局估计精度并非始终是首要任务,而是要在机器人沿任务相关位置获得足够置信度。本扩展摘要介绍了可机械重构的传感技术,可实现连续体机器人状态估计中的不确定性塑造。我们提出了一种概念硬件设计,证明了传感器在连续体机器人内纵向平移的可行性。我们证明,通过改变传感器位置可重构状态估计置信度,且与单个固定末端传感器相比,传感器随时间来回滑动时全身形状估计误差会降低。

英文摘要

Continuum robots often operate in uncertain environments, where accurate state estimation is essential for safe interactions. Estimate uncertainty is inherently spatially non-uniform: confidence varies depending on where measurements are available. Global estimation accuracy is not always the top priority, but rather achieving sufficient confidence at task-relevant locations along the robot. This extended abstract introduces mechanically reconfigurable sensing enabling uncertainty-shaping in state estimation for continuum robots. We present a concept hardware design demonstrating the feasibility of longitudinal translation of a sensor within a continuum robot. We demonstrate that state estimation confidence can be reconfigured by varying the sensor location, and show a reduction of full-body shape estimation errors when sliding the sensor back and forth over time, compared to a single fixed tip sensor.
