Das vorliegende Paper gibt einen Überblick über das Verhalten von modernen, autonom navigierenden Fahrzeugen in Baustellen. Dabei werden besondere Herausforderungen für die autonome Navigation im Baustellenbereich benannt. Außerdem wird ein Überblick über die Sensorausstattung und die Fahrerassistenzsysteme von modernen Fahrzeugen gegeben und es werden Technologien vorgestellt, die für eine Verbesserung der autonomen Navigation durch Baustellen genutzt werden können. Es wird ein Versuch durchgeführt, der aufzeigt, wie zuverlässig moderne Fahrzeuge durch Baustellensituationen navigieren können. Dabei werden Schwachstellen, wie bspw. die mangelnde Verfügbarkeit von Fahrerassistenzsystemen bei niedrigen Geschwindigkeiten, aufgedeckt.
Relax yourself - Using Virtual Reality to enhance employees mental health and work performance
(2019)
This paper presents work-in-progress aiming to develop an actively adapting virtual reality (VR) relaxation application. Due to the immersive nature of VR technologies, people can escape from their real environment and get into a relaxing state. Goal of the application is to adapt to the users' physiological signals to foster the positive effect. Until now, a first version of the VR application was constructed and is currently evaluated in an experiment. Preliminary results of this study demonstrate that people appreciate the immersion into the virtual environment and escape from reality. Moreover, participants highlighted the option to adapt users' needs and preferences. Based on the final study data, the constructed application will be enhanced with regard to adoption and surrounding factors.
Even though many aspects of automated driving have not yet become reality, many human factors issues have already been investigated. However, recent discussions revealed common misconceptions in both research and society about vehicle automation and the levels of automation levels. This might be due to the fact that automated driving functions are misnamed (cf. Autopilot) and that vehicles integrate functions at different automation levels (L1 lane keeping assistant, L2/L3 traffic jam assist, L4 valet parking). The user interface is one of the most critical issues in the interaction between humans and vehicles--and diverging mental models might be a major challenge here. Today's (manual) vehicles are ill-suited for appropriate HMI testing for automated vehicles. Instead, virtual or mixed reality might be a much better playground to test new interaction concepts in an automated driving setting.
Im Zentrum dieses Workshops stehen Erkenntnisse zur Mensch-Computer-Interaktion in sicherheitskritischen Anwendungsgebieten. Da in solchen Feldern – etwa Katastrophenmanagement, Verkehr, Produktion oder Medizin – immer häufiger MCI stattfindet, sind viele wissenschaftliche Gebiete, unter anderem die Informatik, zunehmend gefragt. Die Herausforderung besteht darin, bestehende Ansätze und Methoden zu diskutieren, anzupassen und innovative Lösungsansätze zu entwickeln.
Process diagnosis is an important method for improving product quality in rolling mills. In addition, the measurement of process variables such as roll gap, cross-sectional area, velocity, and volume flow of the material during production enables the implementation of model-based control concepts to improve product quality. The non-contact speed measurement of hot wire and bar is still a big challenge due to the rough environmental conditions and is solved mainly with optical measuring methods in production. The alternative measurement principle with eddy current sensors presented in this paper enables velocity measurement at locations in a rolling mill where optical measurement methods are not suitable.
The development of innovative measuring technology for process optimization in hot rolling mills becomes more and more relevant because of increasing demands on product quality. Measurement technology for high-resolution non-contact cross-sectional area measurement has shown that the variation in cross-sectional area contains information about the rolling process. This information can be used for the development of new measurement devices and analytical methods for process optimization. The harsh environmental conditions and strict safety regulations result in great effort when implementing a new sensor prototype in hot rolling mills. For this reason, this work presents a mechatronic test stand that can simulate the cross-sectional area variation under laboratory conditions realistically.
Velocity Approximation of Hot Steel Rods Using Frequency Spectroscopy of the Cross-Section Area
(2019)
In this work, an approach for velocity approximation of hot steel rods based on frequency spectroscopy is presented. For this purpose, a sensor already implemented in a rolling mill for measuring the cross-sectional area of the rolling stock is used to obtain information about the velocity of the hot rods. Moreover, the effect of forward slip is briefly discussed.
In the field of producing hot-rolled steel bars and wires, hot rolling mills are incomplete or barely equipped with measuring technology for recording relevant process parameters. Therefore, there is a big potential to increase product quality and to decrease costs and scrap by improving process control establishing new sensor systems. One of these crucial parameters is the roll gap,which is investigated as part of the research project PIREF. In this paper an experimental setup for examining the roll gap during a rolling process is presented and based on these results different sensor arrangements are discussed.
Die breite Einführung autonomer Fahrzeuge, ob für den Individualverkehr oder auch den öffentlichen Nahverkehr, ist nur noch eine Frage der Zeit. Dies bedeutet unweigerlich, dass in absehbarer Zeit alle Verkehrsteilnehmer*innen mit dieser Art von Fahrzeugen in Berührung kommen werden. In diesem Artikel soll diskutiert werden, wie Ansätze des Positive Computing helfen können, die Ausgestaltung der automatisierten Fahrzeuge so vorzunehmen, dass sie zum Wohlbefinden der Menschen in Verkehrssituationen beitragen.
