Abstract. The inclusion of additional modalities into the communicative behavior of virtual agents besides speech has moved into focus of human-computer interface researchers, as h...
Most of the obstacle avoidance techniques do not consider the robot orientation or its nal angle at the target position. These techniques deal with the robot position only and are ...
We describe an approach for building and testing software for ubiquitous computing. The approach provides application-level emulators of ubiquitous devices. Since each emulator is...
We propose a novel approach to proportional derivative (PD) control exploiting the fact that these equations can be solved analytically for a single degree of freedom. The analytic...
—One of the grand challenges of self-reconfiguring modular robotics is the assembly of a functional system from thousands of components. However, to date, only systems comprised ...
