Visual-servoing tasks for mobile robots characteristically require the processing of vast amounts of navigational information which can impede the performance of even the most wel...
We present an approach for automatically generating complete process plans, including xturing and CNC code, from high level shape feature part descriptions. The demonstration syst...

This paper presents the application of an action module planning method to an experimental climbing robot named LIBRA. The method searches for a sequence of physically realizable ...
In this paper, we investigate methods for enabling a human operator and an automatic motion planner to cooperatively solve a motion planning query. Our work is motivated by our ex...
This paper deals with the Assembly Line Balancing Problem considering incompatibilities between the tasks with the aim of, first, minimizing the number of workstations and, then, ...
