— We explore an online problem where a group of robots has to find a target whose position is unknown in an unknown planar environment whose geometry is acquired by the robots d...
— We present a novel, simple algorithm for mobile robot navigation. Using a teach-replay approach, the robot is manually led along a desired path in a teaching phase, then the ro...
Abstract— We describe how a graph grammar program for robotic self-assembly, together with measurements of kinetic rate data yield a Markov Process model of the dynamics of progr...
Abstract— We present a path planning algorithm for a polyhedral robot with six degrees of freedom (6DOF) and a static obstacle. The planner consists of a dual-tree RRT algorithm ...
This paper presents an architecture for solving generically the problem of extracting the constraints of a given task in a programming by demonstration framework and the problem...
— A pan-tilt-zoom robotic camera can provide detailed live video of selected areas of interest within a large potential viewing field. To provide spatial context for human obser...
— This paper presents a geometrical feature detection system to use with conventional 2D laser rangefinders. This system consists of three main modules: data acquisition and pre...
