Abstract— Real-world robotic environments are highly structured. The scalability of planning and reasoning methods to cope with complex problems in such environments crucially de...
— In this paper we present a systematic study of the performance of seven different configurations of GPS on a moving vehicle using three different GPS receivers. The seven diff...
— Locomotion on an irregular surface is a challenging task in robotics. Among different problems to solve to obtain robust locomotion, visually guided locomotion and accurate foo...

—This paper proposes the use of Electric Field Sensors to implement “pretouch” for robotic grasping. Weakly electric fish use this perceptual channel, but it has not received...
Abstract— Vision-based place recognition is a desirable feature for an autonomous mobile system. In order to work in realistic scenarios, visual recognition algorithms should be ...

— This paper reports a vacuum-based wet adhesion system for wall climbing robots. In this adhesion system, a suction cup adheres on a wet surface. The problems addressed are an a...
— Due to their flexibility in coverage and resolution, networked robotic cameras become more and more popular in applications such as natural observation, security surveillance,...
— This paper considers the problem of allocating tasks among robots that operate on a 3D truss. Each robot is commanded to navigate to a different location for work. When the inf...
– This paper presents visual perception discovered in high-level manipulator planning for a robot to reproduce the procedure involved in human painting. First, we propose a techn...
