— This paper first presents a novel control strategy for periodic motion control based on a Hamiltonian system. According to the strategy, hybrid symmetric orbits (ideal walking...
Cyclic genetic algorithms can be used to generate single loop control programs for robots. While successful in generating controllers for individual leg movement, gait generation,...
This paper presents an energy-ecient biped walking method that has been implemented in a low-cost humanoid platform, PINO, for various research purposes. For biped walking robots ...

- This paper presents a new control method to drive an array of wet Shape Memory Alloy actuators utilizing a Matrix Manifold and Valve system (MMV). The MMV architecture allows a v...
A Riemannian-geometry approach for control and stabilization of dynamics of object manipulation under holonomic or non-holonomic (but Pfaffian) constraints is presented. First, pos...
