— Yoyo playing may seem easy for a human, but it is a challenging problem for a humanoid robot. This paper presents an approach to generate yoyo motions for the humanoid robot, H...
Abstract— Speeding up robot motion provides not only improvement in operating efficiency but also improves dexterous manipulation by taking advantage of an unstable state or non...
Abstract--We are developing an autonomous mobile robotic system to emulate six degree of freedom relative spacecraft motion during proximity operations. A mobile omni-directional b...

The Dual Smart Drive is a specially designed nonlinear actuator intended for use in climbing and walking legged robots. It features a continuously changing transmission ratio and d...
In this paper, we consider the problem of motion planning for mobile robots with nonlinear hybrid dynamics, and high-level temporal goals. We use a multi-layered synergistic framew...
