— Pretouch sensing is longer range than contact, but shorter range than vision. The hypothesis motivating this work is that closed loop feedback based on short range but nonconta...
Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) provide a principled, general framework for robot motion planning in uncertain and dynamic environments. They have been app...

— Human control of high degree-of-freedom robotic systems, e.g. anthropomorphic robot hands, is often difficult due to the overwhelming number of variables that need to be speci...
— In the eyes of many species, the optical nodal points of the cornea and lens do not lie on the axes of rotation of the eye. During eye movements, this lack of alignment produce...
This paper presents a new algorithm for object handling tasks based on active tactile and slippage sensations using a humanoid robot multi-fingered arm for an object that exists at...
