A Crowd Simulation Backend for Omniverse Create

A crowd simulator API with a default demo scene. The main python API can be used in a few ways. There is an examples folder showing a few use-cases. Users can also switch between social forces and PAM as the crowds algorithm.

Working on Managing Deformation: A Step Toward Higher Robot Autonomy

New paradigms are needed to address these challenges. Therefore, the aim of this workshop is to discuss new research prospects considering the object’s deformation in various robotic applications.

Liquid crystal shells: ‘Smart’ material enables novel applications in autonomous driving and robotics

Liquid Crystal shells, only fractions of a millimeter in size so they can easily be applied to surfaces, have several unique properties that could be utilized in engineering: As they reflect light highly selectively, they can be arranged into patterns that are readable for machines, akin to a QR code, adding coded information to objects.
