— Underwater operations present unique challenges and opportunities for robotic applications. These can be attributed in part to limited sensing capabilities, and to locomotion b...
Off-line robot dynamic identification methods are mostly based on the use of the inverse dynamic model, which is linear with respect to the dynamic parameters. This model is sample...

Abstract-- Typical industrial assembly tasks require an accuracy that cannot be realized by only feedback control if a minimum speed is given by a conveyor. Feed-forward has proven...

Autonomous robots need the ability to move purposefully and without human intervention in real-world environments that have not been speci cally engineered for them. These environm...
