— 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...
— 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...
Serpentine robots are slender, multi-segmented vehicles designed to provide greater mobility than conventional mobile robots. Serpentine robots are ideally suited for urban search...
Abstract— We propose a new approximate algorithm, LAJIV (Lookahead J-MDP Information Value), to solve Oracular Partially Observable Markov Decision Problems (OPOMDPs), a special ...
— Image-based navigation paradigms have recently emerged as an interesting alternative to conventional modelbased methods in mobile robotics. In this paper, we augment the existi...
