— We explore the control synthesis problem for a robot dynamically manipulating an object in the presence of multiple frictional contacts. Contacts occur both between the object ...

Algorithms that process geometric objects become more and more important for many safety-critical embedded systems, e.g. for motion planning or collision detection, where correctne...
Adversarial multi-robot problems, where teams of robots compete with one another, require the development of approaches that span all levels of control and integrate algorithms ra...

— We introduce a hierarchical variant of the probabilistic roadmap method for motion planning. By recursively refining an initially sparse sampling in neighborhoods of the C-obs...
