— In this paper, a control scheme that combines trajectory planning and gaze direction control for robotic exploration is presented. The objective is to calculate the gaze direct...
— This paper presents a body model of intermediate level of detail to allow prediction of the knee torque produced by thigh muscles based on EMG signals. This torque prediction i...
— In this paper, we define a mobile self-localization (MSL) problem for sparse mobile sensor networks, and propose an algorithm named Mobility Assisted MDS-MAP(P), based on Mult...
—This paper presents a new pneumatically driven underactuated hand with two fingers and 3 phalanxes per finger. Two evidences have led the design of this hand. Firstly, the use o...
— This paper presents a method to achieve visual servoing tasks when the shape of the object being observed as well as the final image are unknown. Therefore, a reconstruction p...
Abstract— Tightly-coupled multi-agent systems such as modular robots frequently exhibit properties of interest that span multiple modules. These properties cannot easily be detec...
