Abstract. Sensor networks using mobile robots have recently been proposed to deal with data communication in disruption tolerant networks (DTNs) where an instantaneous end-to-end p...
—In many robotics applications, knowing the material properties around a robot is often critical for the robot’s successful performance. For example, in mobility, knowledge abo...
A wireless sensor network deployment on a glacier in Iceland is described. The system uses power management as well as power harvesting to provide long-term environment sensing. Ad...
Pointing gestures are a common and intuitive way to draw somebody’s attention to a certain object. While humans can easily interpret robot gestures, the perception of human beha...
Dynamically-balancing robots have recently been made available by Segway LLC, in the form of the Segway RMP (Robot Mobility Platform). We have addressed the challenge of using the...
