Control systems running on a computer are subject to timing disturbances coming from implementation constraints. Fortunately closed-loop systems behave robustly w.r.t. modelling e...
– This paper presents the motion analysis, design and position control of a novel, low cost, sliding micro-robot, which is actuated by centripetal forces generated by robot mount...
We combine a "hybrid" force/position control scheme with a potential field approach into a novel method for collision recovery and navigation in unknown environments. It...
Abstract — This paper presents the design and implementation of a system applicable for autonomous repair welding on huge forming tools, often realized as blacksmith’s swages. ...
We consider the problem of controlling multiple robots manipulating and transporting a payload in three dimensions via cables. Individual robot control laws and motion plans enable...
