Efficient physics-based planning: sampling search via non-deterministic tactics and skills
Motion planning for mobile agents, such as robots, acting in the physical world is a challenging task, which traditionally concerns safe obstacle avoidance. We are interested in p...

On the Importance of Asymmetries in Grasp Quality Metrics for Tendon Driven Hands
Abstract— Grasp quality measures are important for understanding how to plan for and maintain appropriate and secure grasps for pick and place operations and tool use. Most grasp...

Recognizing surface properties using impedance perception
— When the end-effector of a robot is slid on a flat surface, the stiffness matrix obtained by linear fitting of position and force contains information not only on the stiffne...

Shadow-Driven 4D Haptic Visualization
Just as we can work with two-dimensional floor plans to communicate 3D architectural design, we can exploit reduced-dimension shadows to manipulate the higher-dimensional objects ...

Six Degree-of-Freedom Haptic Rendering Using Voxel Sampling
A simple, fast, and approximate voxel-based approach to 6DOF haptic rendering is presented. It can reliably sustain a 1000 Hz haptic refresh rate without resorting to asynchronous...
