Abstract: This paper considers the global exponential stability of planar distributed manipulation control schemes. The “programmable vector field” approach is a commonly prop...
We present a calibration procedure to determine the kinematic parameters of an active stereo system in a robot-centric frame of reference. Our goal was to obtain a solution of su...
An omnidirectional platform with an Active Offset Split Caster (ASOC) is described and its ability to operate on non-ideal floors is studied. It is shown that all of its driven wh...
We present control methods for an autonomous four-rotor helicopter, called a quadrotor, using visual feedback as the primary sensor. The vision system uses a ground camera to esti...
In this paper we present a new probabilistic feature-based approach to multi-hypothesis global localization and pose tracking. Hypotheses are generated using a constraintbased sea...
