Human-Inspired Gait and Jumping Motion Generation for Bipedal Robots Using Model Predictive Control by Zhen Xu, Jianan Xie, Kenji Hashimoto

“…Currently, methods based on hybrid zero dynamics and reinforcement learning have been employed to enhance the walking and hopping capabilities of humanoid robots; however, model predictive control (MPC) presents two significant advantages: it can adapt to more complex task requirements and environmental conditions, and it allows for various walking and hopping patterns without extensive training and redesign. The objective of this study is to develop a bipedal robot controller using shooting method-based MPC to achieve human-like walking and hopping abilities, aiming to address the limitations of the existing methods and provide a new approach to enhancing robot mobility.…”

The Importance of Automatic Counters for Sustainable Management in Rural Areas: The Case of Hiking Trails in Historic Villages of Portugal by Ana Luque, Luiz Alves

“…In the case of structures and equipment anchored in the nature tourism segment, in particular hiking trails, in addition to determining the demand indices in a network of hiking trails and understanding their territorial and temporal dynamics, the data collected through automatic counters is a crucial tool to support territorial management and evaluate the patterns and flows of tourist demand. Based on these assumptions, this research seeks to analyse demand data observed on eleven hiking trails in the Historic Villages of Portugal, collected through automatic monitoring systems (counters). …”
