— Model based object tracking has earned significant importance in areas such as augmented reality, surveillance, visual servoing, robotic object manipulation and grasping. Alth...
— This work considers a hybrid force and vision control system for robotic manipulators using a force sensor and a fixed uncalibrated camera. A method is proposed to combine dir...
— As mobile robots become increasingly autonomous over extended periods of time, opportunities arise for their use on repetitive tasks. We define and implement behaviors for a c...
Abstract— Robots need to track object. Object tracking efficiency completely depends on the accuracy of the motion model and of the sensory information. Interestingly, when mult...
— Three-dimensional free-hand ultrasound imaging consists of capturing a set of ultrasound images with a 2D ultrasound system and their respective locations in order to position ...
— A new Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (EDA) with spline kernel function (EDA_S) is proposed to optimize biped gait for a nine-link humanoid robot. Gait synthesis of the bi...
Abstract— This paper describes a virtual reality based Programming by Demonstration system for grasp recognition in manipulation tasks and robot pregrasp planning. The system cla...
— We describe a system in which autonomous robots assemble two-dimensional structures out of square building blocks. A fixed set of local control rules is sufficient for a grou...
