A constrained optimization approach to virtual fixtures for multi-handed tasks
— In this work, we have extended the concept of constrained motion control of robots to surgical tasks that require multiple robots. We present virtual fixtures to guide the mot...

Modeling multi-robot interaction using generalized occupancy grids, with application to reducing spatial interference
— As part of a program to find methods of reducing spatial interference in multi-robot systems, we propose the Interaction Grid (IG), a generalization of the Occupancy Grid that...
