— The reduction of the kinematics and/or dynamics of a high-DOF robotic manipulator to a low-dimension “task space” has proven to be an invaluable tool for designing feedback...
— This paper introduces our recently developed high precision robot localization system employing position sensitive detectors (PSD). A lateral effect PSD is an ideal position se...
