— Legged robots offer the potential to navigate highly challenging terrain, and there has recently been much progress in this area. However, a great deal of this recent work has ...
An approach to high-level interaction with autonomous robots by means of schematic maps is outlined. Schematic maps are knowledge representation structures to encode qualitative s...

We believe intelligence does not dwell solely in brain but emerges from active interactions with environments through perception, action, and communication. This paper give an over...
Developing real robots that can exploit dynamic interactions with the environment requires the use of actuators whose behaviour can vary from high stiffness to complete complianc...
