This paper discusses the feasibility of using conguration space C-space as a means of visualization and control in operator-guided real-time motion of a robot arm manipulator. T...
This paper discusses a novel approach to combining human and machine intelligence in teleoperation of 6 degree of freedom (DOF) arm manipulators. Two algorithms are presented that...
We present a novel approach to mobile object manipulation for service in indoor environments. Current research in service robotics focus on single robots able to move, manipulate o...
— In this paper, the concept of the ’robust arm configuration’ (RAC) is expanded using a mode shape compensator. This compensator improves the robustness of the arm configu...
Endoscopic surgery, while offering considerable gains for the patient, has created new difficulties for the surgeon. One problem is the fulcrum effect, which causes the movement o...
