— The paper studies the coordinated path following problem, namely, steering a group of unicycles to a given path while achieving an inter-vehicle formation pattern. A novel hybr...
In this paper, a teleoperation controller is proposed for a pair of nonlinear master and slave manipulators. The control law enables the nonlinear robots to be perfectly coordinate...
In this paper the control of exible joint manipulators is studied in detail. A composite control algorithm is proposed for the exible joint robots, which consists of two main part...
— Analyses of position and force control laws in the case of perfectly rigid bodies have been made so far with strong assumptions on the state of the contacts such as supposing t...
In this paper we consider a quantized discrete-time linear quadratic regulator (DLQR) problem, namely a DLQR problem where the input u may only take values in a given finite set ...
— This paper addresses the design of a control law for vision-based robot navigation. The method proposed is based on a topological representation of the environment. Within this...
— 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...
— This paper proposes a method to control an I4R parallel robot by the observation of its legs with a calibrated camera. We show that the control law depends only on the edges of...
— The control of humanoid manipulators is very challenging due to the large number of degrees of freedom and the resulting redundancy. Using joint-level control complex planning ...
— A decentralized, adaptive control law is presented to drive a network of mobile robots to a near-optimal sensing configuration. The control law is adaptive in that it integrat...
