— This paper addresses the issue of robotic manipulation of multi-DOF inverted pendulums. A control scheme is designed using Lyaponov stability theory for both the robot position...
Abstract— We discuss a ZMP-based running pattern generation for a biped robot equipped with toe springs. Our biped robot HRP-2LT has twelve active DoFs for its legs and two passi...
— This paper is about the autonomous control of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), and the particular considerations required to allow proper control while towing a 100-mete...

Abstract— Intelligently utilizing the frictional contact between a robot and its environment can prevent slip, maintain balance, and provide stability during a robot’s motion. ...
—An omnidirectional mobile robot is able, kinematically, to move in any direction regardless of current pose. To date, nearly all designs and analyses of omnidirectional robots h...
