Singularity avoidance for over-actuated, pseudo-omnidirectional, wheeled mobile robots
— For mobile platforms with steerable standard wheels it is necessary to precisely coordinate rotation and steering angle of their wheels. An established approach to ensure this ...

Dextrous Manipulation by Rolling and Finger Gaiting
Many practical dextrous manipulation tasks involve large-scale motion of the grasped object while maintaining a stable grasp. To plan such tasks, one must control both the motion ...
