We combine a "hybrid" force/position control scheme with a potential field approach into a novel method for collision recovery and navigation in unknown environments. It...
The ability to represent knowledge about space and its position therein is crucial for a mobile robot. To this end, topological and semantic descriptions are gaining popularity fo...
As robots and humans move towards sharing the same environment, the need for safety in robotic systems is of growing importance. Towards this goal of human-friendly robotics, a rob...
In this paper, we propose a human daily activity recognition method by fusing the data from two wearable inertial sensors attached on one foot and the waist of the human subject, r...
This paper describes some initial steps towards sensor based path planning in an unknown static environment. The method is a based on a sensor-based incremental construction of a o...
