Grasping an object is a task that inherently needs to be treated in a hybrid fashion. The system must decide both where and how to grasp the object. While selecting where to grasp...
Trajectory planning and optimization is a fundamental problem in articulated robotics. Algorithms used typically for this problem compute optimal trajectories from scratch in a ne...
— Pose estimation of outdoor robots presents some distinct challenges due to the various uncertainties in the robot sensing and action. In particular, global positioning sensors ...

— This paper addresses the design of a control law for vision-based robot navigation. The method proposed is based on a topological representation of the environment. Within this...
We consider the robot exploration of a planar graphlike world. The robot's goal is to build a complete map of its environment. The environment is modeled as an arbitrary undi...
