This paper investigates the problem of "formclosure"for three-fingered grasps of polygonal objects under various combinations of contact models at the contact points. We...
In this paper I will show how reactive agents can solve relatively complex tasks without requiring any internal state and I will demonstrate that this is due to their ability to c...
