With the development of science and technology, mechatronics and automation have changed the face of the traditional machinery manufacturing industry and become an important aspect of information technology and modern industrial production, with a huge impact in many diverse fields such as manufacturing, robotics, automation, the automobile industry and biomedicine. This book contains the proceedings of ICMAT 2022, the 2022 International Conference on Mechatronics and Automation Technology, held as a virtual event due to restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and hosted in Wuhan, China on 29 and 30 October 2022. The ICMAT conference is an ideal platform for bringing together research...
This is the fourth volume of the successful series Robot Operating Systems: The Complete Reference, providing a comprehensive overview of robot operating systems (ROS), which is currently the main development framework for robotics applications, as well as the latest trends and contributed systems. The book is divided into four parts: Part 1 features two papers on navigation, discussing SLAM and path planning. Part 2 focuses on the integration of ROS into quadcopters and their control. Part 3 then discusses two emerging applications for robotics: cloud robotics, and video stabilization. Part 4 presents tools developed for ROS; the first is a practical alternative to the roslaunch system, and the second is related to penetration testing. This book is a valuable resource for ROS users and wanting to learn more about ROS capabilities and features.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Green, Pervasive, and Cloud Computing, GPC 2022, held in Chengdu, China, in December 2022. The 19 full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 104 submissions. GPC 2022 shares novel ideas and experiences in the areas of Green, Pervasive, and Cloud Computing.

Dynamic monitoring of crop phenotypic traits (e.g., LAI, plant height, biomass, nitrogen, yield et al.) is essential for exploring crop growth patterns, breeding new varieties, and determining optimized strategies for crop management. Traditional methods for determining crop phenotypic traits are mainly based on field sampling, handheld instrument measurement, and mechanized high-throughput platforms, which are time-consuming, and have low efficiency and incomplete spatial coverage. The development of crop science requires more rapid and accurate access to field-based crop phenotypes. Remote sensing provides a novel solution to quantify crop structural and functional traits in a timely, rapi...
