All mobile bases suffer from localization errors. Previous approaches to accommodate for localization errors either use external sensors such as lasers or sonars, or use internal s...
Abstract— This paper deals with constant disturbances rejection in limit cycle tracking for an underactuated mechanical system. The feedback controler presented in [1] is enhance...
We describe techniques for automatically acquiring observations of a deforming object and for estimating a model of the deformation from these observations. A robotic system was d...
— In this paper, we describe a new approach for the extrinsic calibration of a camera with a 3D laser range finder, that can be done on the fly. This approach does not require an...
- Autonomous space robots are needed for future missions such as satellite capture and large space structure construction. Precise control of these space robots is important for sp...
