The locomotor controller for walking, running, swimming, and flying animals is based on a Central Pattern Generator (CPG). Models of CPGs as systems of coupled non-linear oscillato...

Abstract. Whiskers are versatile sensors for short-range navigation and exploration that are widespread in many animal species, especially in rodents. Their arrangement is in very ...
We present a new algorithm that enables a convex shaped robot to explore an unknown planar workspace, i.e., an unknown configuration space diffeomorphic to SE(2). This new algor...
Existing solutions to carrier-based sensor placement by a single robot, in a bounded unknown region of interest (ROI), do not guarantee full area coverage and/or do not terminate. ...

In this paper, we consider the problem of motion planning for mobile robots with nonlinear hybrid dynamics, and high-level temporal goals. We use a multi-layered synergistic framew...
