— Classical position-based visual servoing approaches rely on the presence of distinctive features in the image such as corners and edges. In this contribution we exploit a hiera...
— Our goal is to create roadmaps that are particularly suited for motion planning in virtual environments. We use our Reachability Roadmap Method to compute an initial, resolutio...
– The success of a landed space exploration mission depends largely on the final landing site. Factors influencing site selection include safety, fuel-consumption, and scientific...
— We created a human-robot communication system that can adapt to user preferences that can easily change through communication. Even if any learning algorithms are used, evaluat...

— This paper presents work on sensor-based motion planning in initially unknown dynamic environments. Motion detection and modeling are combined with a smooth navigation function...
Abstract— This paper proposes a new way of trajectory generation for industrial manipulators. A real-time algorithm for the interpolation of synchronized and time-optimal manipul...
— An algorithm for tracking articulating objects from moving camera platforms is presented. Mixtures of mixtures are used to model the appearance of the object and the background...
