We propose a novel combination of techniques for robustly estimating the position of a mobile robot in outdoor environments using range data. Our approach applies a particle filte...
Abstract— Existing penalty-based haptic rendering approaches compute penetration depth in strictly translational sense and cannot properly take object rotation into account. We a...
Finite-state controllers represent an effective action selection mechanisms widely used in domains such as video-games and mobile robotics. In contrast to the policies obtained fr...
Abstract— This paper describes a hierarchical planner deployed on a mobile manipulation system. The main idea is a two-level hierarchy combining a global planner which provides r...
