The goal of the Architecture for Agile Assembly AAA is to enable rapid deployment and recon guration of automated assembly systems through the use of cooperating, modular, robust,...
Developing automated assembly systems normally happens in two distinct stages: rst an o -line" stage in which the system is designed and programmed in simulated and then an o...
Industrial Sawyer motor technology has existed for nearly three decades, traditionally being operated as open-loop positioners. Such systems can attain micron level motion resolut...

A high performance six degree-of-freedom magnetic levitation haptic interface device has been integrated with a physically-based dynamic rigid-body simulation to enable realistic ...
In this paper, an adaptive motion force control based approach is proposed to control bilateral teleoperation systems under both position and rate control with arbitrary motion fo...
We analyze a class of mechanisms that locomote by switching between constraints. Because of the hybrid nature of such systems, most of the existing analysis tools, developed prima...
A sonar-ring is one of the most popular sensors for indoor mobile robots, because it is simple and gives omni-directional distance information directly. However, it is dicult to m...
