Abstract: This paper presents the mechanical hardware and control software of a novel high-performance active vision system. It is the latest in an ongoing research effort to devel...
: This paper presents a new 3-D design of a discretely-actuated robot manipulator powered by binary actuators. Binary actuators have two stable states, which are, for example, clos...
: We present a method for representing, communicating, and fusing distributed, noisy, and uncertain observations of an object by multiple robots. The approach relies on re-paramete...

: Six DOF offset sensing between two plates is important for automatic docking mechanisms. This paper presents an easy and inexpensive implementation of such a system using four co...
: A solution to the singularity problem is presented from the approach of the operational space formulation which involves both motion and force control. A brief summary of the Ope...
: A framework for underwater navigation by combining raw information from different sensors into a single scene description is presented. It is shown that features extracted from s...

Abstract: This paper presents a technique for incorporating delayed decision making into stochastic mapping algorithms for concurrent mapping and localization. The approach explici...
: Autonomous long range navigation in partially known planetary-like terrain is an open challenge for robotics. Navigating several hundreds of meters without any human intervention...
