This paper proposes a hybrid control method of using the impedance control and the computed-torque control for biped robot locomotion. The computedtorque control is used for suppo...
We describe techniques for performing mobile robot localization using occupancy grids that allow subpixel localization and uncertainty estimation in the pixelized pose space. The ...
In this paper we consider the detection of small surface features, such as ridges and bumps, on the surface of an object during dextrous manipulation. First we review the represen...
Currently, the viability of infrared IR as an accurate means of measuring distance depends on extensive prior knowledge of the surface. More speci cally, the manner in which a sur...
We have previously developed a brachiation controller that allows a two degree of freedom robot to swing from handhold to handhold on a horizontal ladder with evenly space rungs a...

This paper describes a new method for improving the accuracy of range information using low resolution ultrasonic sensors mounted on a mobile robot. These sensors emit ultra-sound...
Cobots are capable of producing virtual surfaces of high quality, using mechanical transmission elements as their basic element in place of conventional motors. Most cobots built ...
