The modeling and control flexible-manufacturing workcells (FMCs) has generally been performed in a hierarchical structure, where at the highest level they have been modeled as dis...
Tracking of a moving target by uncalibrated model independent visual servo control is achieved by developing a new \dynamic" quasi-Newton approach. Model independent visual s...

This paper describes the objectives of this project, which are to design artificial limbs that are lightweight, compact and dexterous, that mimic human anatomy and maintain a high...

This paper proposes a hybrid control method of using the impedance control and the computed-torque control for biped robot locomotion. The computedtorque control is used for suppo...
We describe techniques for performing mobile robot localization using occupancy grids that allow subpixel localization and uncertainty estimation in the pixelized pose space. The ...
In this paper we consider the detection of small surface features, such as ridges and bumps, on the surface of an object during dextrous manipulation. First we review the represen...
Currently, the viability of infrared IR as an accurate means of measuring distance depends on extensive prior knowledge of the surface. More speci cally, the manner in which a sur...
