A new approach to control system design for systems containing sandwiched, uncertain, non-smooth friction is proposed. The method is based on a multi-state backstepping approach t...
A seven degree-of-freedom (DOF) haptic device has been developed with applications towards robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery. The device consists of four degrees of force ...
The contribution of this paper is the expansion of the range of possibilities in the analysis, planning, and control of contact tasks. The successful execution of any contact task...
