— Local maps algorithms have demonstrated to be well suited for mapping large environments as can reduce the computational cost and improve the consistency of the final estimati...
— The Micromechanical Flying Insect (MFI) project aims to create a 25 mm (wingtip to wingtip) flapping wing micro air vehicle inspired by the aerodynamics of insect flight. A k...

— This paper considers the problem of stabilizing a unicycle-type mobile robot using a time-invariant, discontinuous control law. In order to simplify the control design, most pr...
— As robots are gradually leaving highly structured factory environments and moving into human populated environments, they need to possess more complex cognitive abilities. Not ...

Abstract— We present an approach for the dynamic assignment and reassignment of a large team of homogeneous robotic agents to multiple locations with applications to search and r...
— In this paper, we propose a new method for the motion planning problem of rigid object dexterous manipulation with a robotic multi-fingered hand, under quasi-static movement a...
— In this paper, we describe the implementation of a precise reaching controller on an upper-torso humanoid robot. The solution we propose does not rely on prior models of the ki...
