Dynamical Wall Following for a Wheeled Robot Using a Passive Tactile Sensor
— Feedback from antennae – long, flexible tactile sensors – enables cockroaches and other arthropods to rapidly maneuver through poorly lit and cluttered environments. Inspi...

Using Adaptive Tracking to Classify and Monitor Activities in a Site
We describe a vision system that monitors activity in a site over extended periods of time. The system uses a distributed set of sensors to cover the site, and an adaptive tracker...

Towards High-Fidelity On-Board Attitude Estimation for Legged Locomotion via a Hybrid Range and Inertial Approach
Legged robots display a characteristically periodic motion. Measuring and tracking this motion has traditionally been performed using general inertial measurement techniques. While...

Differential forms for target tracking and aggregate queries in distributed networks
Consider mobile targets moving in a plane and their movements being monitored by a network such as a field of sensors. We develop distributed algorithms for in-network tracking an...
