— We present a hydro-elastic actuator that has a linear spring intentionally placed in series between the hydraulic piston and actuator output. The spring strain is measured to g...
Abstract— In general, a mobile robot that operates in unknown environments has to maintain a map and has to determine its own location given the map. This introduces significant...
Decision-theoretic reasoning and planning algorithms are increasingly being used for mobile robot navigation, due to the signi cant uncertainty accompanying the robots' perce...
— This paper reports an autonomous cooperative navigation system for robot formations in realistic scenarios. The formation movement control is based on a virtual structure compo...
