This paper provides an overview of our selection process for proximity sensors for manipulator collision avoidance. Five categories of sensors have been considered for this use in...
Abstract-This paper deals with enhancing the level of autonomy in a robotic work cell. With that mission in mind, we present here an integrated framework for the sensing, the plann...
In this paper, we are concerned with the problem of location of inspection centers in a multistage manufacturing system. A Genetic algorithm based approach is developed to determi...
For an autonomous robot navigating in an unstructured outdoor environment, staying close to a path is crucial to successfully reaching its goal. Although the degree of accuracy wi...

Accurate knowledge of depth continues to be of critical importance in robotic systems. Without accurate depth knowledge, tasks such as inspection, tracking, grasping, and collisio...
A blind traveler walking through an unfamiliar environment, and a mobile robot navigating through a cluttered environment have an important feature in common: both have the kinema...
A mobile robot requires perception of its local environment for both sensor based locomotion and for position estimation. Occupancy grids, based on ultrasonic range data, provide ...
