– In this paper, we present a general mathematical foundation of hormone-inspired control for the selfreconfigurable robotic system. Problem considered here is the lack of a math...
— We study the problem of generating continuous steering control for robots to completely cover a bounded region over a finite time. First, we pack the area by disks of minimum ...
— Recently, Rao-Blackwellized particle filters have become a popular tool to solve the simultaneous localization and mapping problem. This technique applies a particle filter i...

ACT Search and rescue robots often use tethers to provide power and communication, but tethers get caught on debris and small robots have difficulty with the added drag of the tet...
— This paper describes a test-bed for planar micro manipulation tasks and a framework for planning based on quasistatic models of mechanical systems with frictional contacts. We ...
