— Localization for low cost humanoid or animal-like personal robots has to rely on cheap sensors and has to be robust to user manipulations of the robot. We present a visual loca...
—Accurate models of the feel of physical objects are essential to improving the realism of haptic simulations. This paper presents a method for automatically obtaining experiment...
Abstract— The problem of an effective coordination of multiple autonomous robots is one of the most important tasks of the modern robotics. In turn, it is well known that the lea...
— In this paper, we propose a visual servoing scheme to align an airplane with respect to a runway. A linearized model of the airplane dynamics and decoupled visual features are ...
Abstract— We describe a novel intelligent execution monitoring approach for mobile robots acting in indoor environments such as offices and houses. Traditionally, monitoring exe...

Abstract— Vision systems are used more and more in ’personal’ robots interacting with humans, since semantic information about objects and places can be derived from the rich...

Abstract— In this paper, an attitude control strategy is developed for a high-speed quadruped trot. The forces in the trot are redistributed among the legs to stabilize the pitch...
