We report on our recently achieved spatial two-juggle: the ability to bat two freely falling balls into stable periodic vertical trajectories with a single three degree of freedom...
Many tasks are di cult or impossible for onearmed" robots, for example, assembly with long parts. Multi-armed robots can do such tasks well, but only if both robot and contro...
This paper presents a summary of the design and implementation of a force-reflecting controller for conventional heavy duty hydraulic machines. The unsuitability of direct force ...
In this paper, a variable structure controller with time-varying sliding surface is proposed for robot manipulators. The proposed time-varying sliding surface ensures the ezistenc...
Controlled compliance and accommodation matrix techniques are considered for robust insertion of threaded fasteners. Errors in translational positioning are shown to be easily cor...
