— This paper presents a vision based SLAM method by using stereo SFM technique. The proposed method is based on the stereo SFM presented in our former paper. The method do not ne...
— In this paper we address tasks for multirobot teams that require solving a distributed multi-agent planning problem in which the actions of robots are tightly coupled. The unce...
— This paper first presents a novel control strategy for periodic motion control based on a Hamiltonian system. According to the strategy, hybrid symmetric orbits (ideal walking...
Abstract— Constructing climbing behaviors for hyperredundant robots that account for the system dynamics requires a model of robot dynamics under contact and friction. One common...
- Balance maintenance and upright posture recovery under unexpected environmental forces are key requirements for safe and successful co-existence of humanoid robots in normal huma...
Abstract— Recent research trends and technology developments are bringing us closer to the realization of autonomous multirobot systems performing increasingly complex missions. ...
