—Learning control is a concept for controlling dynamic systems in an iterative manner. It arises from the recognition that robotic manipulators are usually used to perform repeti...
— 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 ...

— We present an optimization-based approach to grasping and path planning for mobile manipulators. We focus on pick-and-place operations, where a given object must be moved from ...
— The dynamics and control of a cable-suspended, two-arm robotic system are developed for an entertainment application. One manipulator arm is controlled to fulfill a user defi...
