In this paper we present a new approach to visual servoing using lines. It is based on a theoretical and geometrical study of the main line representations which allows us to deļ¬...
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...
A human can lift up an object with almost minimal grasping force regardless of the friction coefficient between the fingers and the object, but the sensing mechanism for this rema...
We presentthe first configurationspacecomputationalgorithm for pairs of rigid parts that move along fixed spatial axes. The motivation is contactanalysisformechanical design of sp...
We analyze a class of mechanisms that locomote by switching between constraints. Because of the hybrid nature of such systems, most of the existing analysis tools, developed prima...
