— In this paper, we address the issues of compliant control of a robot under contact constraints with a goal of using joint space based pattern generators as movement primitives,...
— Skid-steered mobile robots have been widely used for terrain exploration and navigation. In this paper, we present an adaptive trajectory control design for a skid-steered whee...
Abstract— Tomorrow’s humanoids will operate in human environments, where efficient manipulation and locomotion skills, and safe contact interactions will be critical design fa...
We present a novel locomotion strategy called legless locomotion that allows a round-bodied legged robot to locomote approximately when it is high-centered. Typically, a high-cent...
