Abstract. This paper proposes a novel architecture for the programming of multi-modal service robots and networked sensors. The presented software framework eases the development o...
Abstract. In this paper, we review methods used for macroscopic modeling and analyzing collective behavior of swarm robotic systems. Although the behavior of an individual robot in...
This paper describes a six-legged robot based on the features of an agile insect, the American cockroach, Periplaneta americana. The robot is designed with insect-like leg structu...
We propose in this paper new redundancy-based solutions to avoid robot joint limits of a manipulator. We use a control scheme based on the task function approach. We first recall...
Dynamical systems theory is used here as a theoretical language and tool to design a distributed control archictecture that generates navigation in formation, integrated with obst...
