— We present a system of coupled nonlinear oscillators to be used as programmable central pattern generators, and apply it to control the locomotion of a humanoid robot. Central ...
We have proposed the practical torque sensqng which utilizes a flexible part of a harmonic drive gear. The sensing technique providesjoint torque sensing without reducing stiffnes...

The control of nonholonomic and underactuated systems with symmetry is illustrated by the problem of controlling a bicycle. We derive a controller which, using steering and rear-w...
The general stochastic optimal control (SOC) problem in robotics scenarios is often too complex to be solved exactly and in near real time. A classical approximate solution is to ...
Abstract— Research on humanoid robots for use in servicing tasks, e.g. fetching and delivery, attracts steadily more interest. With ”Rollin’ Justin” a mobile robotic system...
