— This paper presents a novel whole body motion estimation method by fitting a deformable articulated model of the human body into the 3D reconstructed volume obtained from mult...
— One of features of soft object manipulation is motion during deformation of the soft body. We analyze the stability of soft object manipulation by simultaneous control of motio...
In this paper, we describe an exact method for detecting collision between two moving ellipsoids under pre-specified rational motions. Our method is based on an algebraic conditi...
The decades of research in motion planning have resulted in numerous algorithms. Many of the most successful algorithms are randomized and can have widely differing run-times for ...
Manual materials handling of heavy loads is a common cause of low back disorders. The manual manipulation of a heavy load may be made more comfortable by constraining the load to ...
