— Tactile information is valuable in determining properties of objects that are inaccessible from visual perception. In this work, we present a tactile perception strategy that a...
— This work is focused on the design of a rotor speed regulator for small-scale helicopters. A nominal model identification for the main rotor is performed using a hybrid proced...
— Needles are commonly used in medical practice as a minimally invasive means to reach subsurface targets for diagnosis or therapy delivery. Recent results indicate that steerabl...
