The bow leg hopper is a novel locomotor design with a highly resilient leg that resembles an archer's bow. During flight, a "thrust" actuator adds elastic energy to...
Accurate knowledge of depth continues to be of critical importance in robotic systems. Without accurate depth knowledge, tasks such as inspection, tracking, grasping, and collisio...
We consider the problem of bounding the combinatorial complexity of a single cell in an arrangement of n low-degree algebraic surface patches in 3-space. We show that this complex...
Abstract. We can achieve guaranteed constraint satisfaction of a hybrid dynamical system (which takes into account the underlying continuous dynamics) in a simple, hierarchical con...
The mobile robotics community has traditionally addressed motion planning and navigation in terms of steering decisions. However, selecting the best speed is also important – be...
