Article Synopsis
- GeoCrack is the first large-scale open-source dataset for annotated geological fracture traces, aimed at enhancing deep learning techniques for fracture segmentation.
- The dataset includes images from 11 diverse sites in Europe and the Middle East, meticulously cleaned, normalized, and segmented to ensure high-quality annotations.
- Validation of GeoCrack using a U-Net model showed impressive segmentation results, highlighting its potential to improve fracture identification in various geological contexts.
Lunarminer Framework for Nature-Inspired Swarm Robotics in Lunar Water Ice Extraction.
Biomimetics (Basel)
November 2024
School of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering, The University of Adelaide, Adelaide 5005, Australia.
The Lunarminer framework explores the use of biomimetic swarm robotics, inspired by the division of labor in leafcutter ants and the synchronized flashing of fireflies, to enhance lunar water ice extraction. Simulations of water ice extraction within Shackleton Crater showed that the framework may improve task allocation, by reducing the extraction time by up to 40% and energy consumption by 31% in scenarios with high ore block quantities. This system, capable of producing up to 181 L of water per day from excavated regolith with a conversion efficiency of 0.
