In this paper, a teleoperation controller is proposed for a pair of nonlinear master and slave manipulators. The control law enables the nonlinear robots to be perfectly coordinate...
We present a new algorithm that enables a convex shaped robot to explore an unknown planar workspace, i.e., an unknown configuration space diffeomorphic to SE(2). This new algor...
: This research studied the optimal design of Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) muscle wire bundle actuators. Current literature describes the use of multiple muscle wires placed in paralle...

— This paper presents a new approach for the absolute self-localization of a mobile robot in structured large-scale environments. The requirements with regard to both, the necess...
We describe techniques for automatically acquiring observations of a deforming object and for estimating a model of the deformation from these observations. A robotic system was d...
We present an efficient approach to self-collision detection suitable for complex articulated robots such as humanoids. Preventing self-collisions is vital for the safe operation ...
