Although braided pneumatic actuators are capable of producing phenomenal forces compared to their weight, they have yet to see mainstream use due to their relatively short fatigue...
This paper presents a flight rnanageiiient system (FhIS) iinpleniented as on-board intelligence for rotorcraft-based unmanned aerial vehicles (RUAVs), in order to gradually ilen a...
: In this paper, mobility analysis of various planar mobile robots are performed. Two different approaches are employed for that purpose. In the first approach, joint screws are em...
Abstract— We present an incremental algorithm to estimate the penetration depth between convex polytopes in 3D. The algorithm incrementally seeks a “locally optimal solution”...
This paper presents a method to deal the dynamic stability for a mobile manipulator. Although the system has static stability, manipulation on the moving base or mobile locomotion...

We present a novel box depalletizing system based on images acquired with a time of flight laser sensor mounted on the hand of the robot. Scanning the upper layer of the pallet y...
— This paper proposes a novel identification technique of constraint condition that the environment imposes on the robot’s end-effector, based on position and force sensing d...
This paper presents methods of localization using cooperating landmarks (beacons) that provide the ability to measure range only. Recent advances in radio frequency technology mak...
Most physically implemented multi-robot controllers are based on extensions of behavior-based systems. While efficient, such techniques suffer from weak representational power. Sy...
This paper presents an advanced leg module developed for HRP-2. HRP-2 is a new humanoid robotics platform, which we have been developing in phase two of HRP. HRP is a humanoid rob...
