Parallel closed-chainmechanical architectures allow for redundant actuation in the force domain. Antagonistic actuation, afforded by this input force redundancy, in conjunction wi...
This paper presents a new velocity blending approach to the problem of task space trajectory generation. To compare this technique with others, a generalized formulation for task ...
This paper presents a scheme by which a manipulator can use dynamic tactile sensing to detect when it is about to lose hold of a grasped object and take preventive measures before...
A survey of blackboard robotics applications shows the improvements of blackboard models used in telerobotics and autonomous robots from the use of sequential blackboard in the ro...
The problem of programming a robot t o carry out a systematic exploration of its environment using realistic sensors is considered in this paper. The robot is modelled as a single...
