— The present paper introduces an evaluation of the manipulation performance of a robotic arm with respect to control accuracy and mechanical efficiency, taking into considerati...
We present motion planning for dexterous manipulation by whole arm grasp system based on switching contact modes. Motion planning for such a system should consider changing dynami...
Abstract— This paper proposes a small-scale agile wall climbing robot able to navigate on smooth surfaces of any orientation, including vertical and inverted surfaces, which uses...
