Special Issue Information
Dear colleagues,
Implementing advanced perception and safety control in intelligent machines, such as autonomous vehicles and robots, is crucial. Intelligent machines often operate in diverse and unpredictable settings. Advanced perception systems equipped with machine learning capabilities enable adaptation to different environments, ensuring reliable performance across various scenarios. Intelligent machines can accurately sense and understand their surroundings, reducing the likelihood of collisions or accidents. Safety control measures are essential for ensuring that intelligent machines comply with industry standards and regulations. This is particularly critical in applications like autonomous driving, where adherence to safety guidelines is paramount. Safety control mechanisms ensure that the machine can respond promptly to unexpected situations, mitigating potential risks and hazards. Furthermore, in scenarios involving human-machine interaction, such as collaborative robots, advanced perception facilitates safe and efficient collaboration. Safety controls play a crucial role in preventing accidental harm to humans. In summary, the integration of advanced perception and safety control in intelligent machines is imperative for ensuring not only the safety of the machines themselves but also for fostering trust in their interactions with humans and their deployment in various environments. These technologies collectively contribute to the reliability, adaptability, and overall effectiveness of intelligent systems.
