Abstract— We consider the problem of approximating a continuous curve by a piecewise linear one whose segments are assumed to be connected by universal joints. Rather than taking...
– This paper presents a modular and reconfigurable robot for multiple locomotion modes based on reconfigurable modules. Each mode consists of characteristics for the environment ...

Abstract— This paper introduces the concept of gait transitions, acyclic feedforward motion patterns that allow a robot to switch from one gait to another. Legged robots often ut...
— This paper presents a model-based approach to cancel friction in the joints of the manipulators of a forcefeedback telerobotic system. Friction compensation can improve the tra...
— In this paper, the design, analysis, and fabrication of a gecko-inspired climbing robot are discussed. The robot has kinematics similar to a gecko’s climbing gait. It uses pe...

— In this paper we discuss active humanoid vision systems that realize foveation using two rigidly connected cameras in each eye. We present an exhaustive analysis of the relatio...
