: The immobilization of non-rigid objects is currently an active research area in robotics. This paper explores the problem by studying the immobilization of serial chains of rigid...
— We demonstrate five-degree-of-freedom (5-DOF) wireless magnetic control of a fully untethered microrobot (3DOF position, 2-DOF pointing orientation). The microrobot can move t...

— One of the main drawbacks of standard visual EKF-SLAM techniques is the assumption of a general camera motion model. Usually this motion model has been implemented in the liter...
— This paper presents a new paradigm in the design of indoor flying robots that replaces collision avoidance with collision robustness. Indoor flying robots must operate within...
— Introducing autonomous machines to construction areas can improve many of the occurring processes. Therefore, this paper deals with problems in the field of creating an autono...

Abstract— To compute collision-free and dynamicallyfeasibile trajectories that satisfy high-level specifications given in a planning-domain definition language, this paper prop...
Abstract— Trajectory planning and optimization is a fundamental problem in articulated robotics. It is often viewed as a two phase problem of initial feasible path planning aroun...
Abstract— A core challenge in probabilistic mapping is to extract meaningful uncertainty information from data registration methods. While this has been investigated in ICP-based...
— Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is a prominent feature for autonomous robots operating in undefined environments. Applications areas such as consumer robotics app...
— Bipedal walking could be implemented into a robot by mimicking spring-like leg behaviour. The fundamental model, describing human-like leg function in walking is the bipedal sp...
