Abstract: Various examples are provided related to an autonomous/reactive human-robotic mimetic haptic control framework. In one example, a system includes at least one sensor obtaining tool operation data associated with a user operating a hand tool during execution of a construction process; and at least one computing device that trains a robotic system to mimic operation of the hand tool based upon the tool operation data; and causes the robotic system to carry out the operation using the hand tool by performing at least a portion of one or more trained behavior motif, each trained behavior motif including a time-stamped list of defined execution steps.

Abstract: Various examples are provided for dynamically deployed communication networks. In one example, a method includes deploying an agent in communication with a base platform; traversing an area by the agent, where one or more mesh nodes deployed in the area form a dynamically deployed communication network (DDCN); and maintaining communication between the agent and base platform via at least a portion of the one or more deployed mesh nodes of the DDCN. The mesh nodes can be autonomously deployed by the agent during traversal or can be deployed prior to traversal of the agent.

Abstract: Various examples of methods, systems and devices are provided for ophthalmic examination. In one example, a handheld system includes an optical imaging assembly coupled to a user device that includes a camera aligned with optics of the optical imaging assembly. The user device can obtain ocular imaging data of at least a portion of an eye via the optics of the optical imaging assembly and provide ophthalmic evaluation results based at least in part upon the ocular imaging data. In another example, a method includes receiving ocular imaging data of at least a portion of an eye; analyzing the ocular imaging data to determine at least one ophthalmic characteristic of the eye; and determining a condition based at least in part upon the at least one ophthalmic characteristic.

Abstract: A method of controlling a plurality of crafts in an operational area includes providing a command system, a first craft in the operational area coupled to the command system, and a second craft in the operational area coupled to the command system. The method further includes determining a first desired destination and a first trajectory to the first desired destination, sending a first command from the command system to the first craft to move a first distance along the first trajectory, and moving the first craft according to the first command. A second desired destination and a second trajectory to the second desired destination are determined and a second command is sent from the command system to the second craft to move a second distance along the second trajectory.

Abstract: A multi-agent autonomous system for exploration of hazardous or inaccessible locations. The multi-agent autonomous system includes simple surface-based agents or craft controlled by an airborne tracking and command system. The airborne tracking and command system includes an instrument suite used to image an operational area and any craft deployed within the operational area. The image data is used to identify the craft, targets for exploration, and obstacles in the operational area. The tracking and command system determines paths for the surface-based craft using the identified targets and obstacles and commands the craft using simple movement commands to move through the operational area to the targets while avoiding the obstacles. Each craft includes its own instrument suite to collect information about the operational area that is transmitted back to the tracking and command system.
