— We report an autonomous observation system with multiple pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras assisted by a fixed wideangle camera. The wide-angle camera provides large but low resolut...
— Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are an indispensable tool for marine scientists to study the world’s oceans. The Slocum glider is a buoyancy driven AUV designed for mis...
Abstract— This paper discusses the non-grasp dynamic manipulation of a deformable object inspired by the handling mechanism of pizza master. The master handles a tool where a pla...
Abstract— This paper describes the electronics and communication system of Odin, a novel heterogeneous modular robot made of links and joints. The electronics is divided into two...
