— We consider the problem of task assignment and execution in multirobot systems, by proposing a procedure for bid estimation in auction protocols. Auctions are of interest to mu...
Abstract— Within assembly lines, wheel assembly to continuously conveyed car bodies is still executed by human workers using a device that compensates the weight of the wheel. Th...

— This paper presents an oceanographic toolchain that can be used to generate multi-vehicle robotic surveys for large-scale dynamic features in the coastal ocean. Our science app...
Abstract— We describe an autonomous robotic system capable of navigating through an office environment, opening doors along the way, and plugging itself into electrical outlets ...

—This paper describes the synthesis of correct robot control from high-level tasks that include non-projective locative prepositions. Here, locative prepositions such as ‘near...
— The problem of coverage of known space by a mobile robot has many applications. Of particular interest is providing a solution that guarantees the complete coverage of the free...
— Tendon driven mechanisms have been considered in robotic design for several decades. They provide lightweight end effectors with high dynamics. Using remote actuators it is pos...
— Tactile information is valuable in determining properties of objects that are inaccessible from visual perception. In this work, we present a tactile perception strategy that a...
— After briefly summarizing the mechanical design of the two joint prototypes for the new DLR variable compliance arm, the paper exemplifies the dynamic modelling of one of the...
Abstract— Trajectory generation and control of large equipment in open field environments involves systematically and robustly operating in uncertain and dynamic terrain. This p...
