— Algorithms for dextrous robot grasping always have to cope with the challenge of achieving high object specialisation for a wide range of grasping contexts. In this paper, we p...
— This paper presents a balance controller that allows a humanoid to recover from large disturbances and still maintain an upright posture. Balance is achieved by integral contro...
The human body has a complex skeleton, giving a very high number of degrees of freedom, and is actuated by a large number of elastic elements muscles and tendons. As a consequence,...
