– Mobile robots operating in home environments must deal with constrained space and a great variety of obstacles and situations to handle. This article presents a pilot study aim...
— A recent study showed that high failure rates in many instances of decoupled multi-robot motion planning makes the decoupled planning approach an unsuitable choice in compariso...
— The dynamics and control of a cable-suspended, two-arm robotic system are developed for an entertainment application. One manipulator arm is controlled to fulfill a user defi...

Fully autonomous aerial robots are needed to accomplish near-Earth missions such as search and rescue, and bio-chemical sensing. Recent advances in sensor technologies ([6], [8], ...
— Humanoid robots are routinely engaged in tasks requiring the coordination between multiple degrees of freedom and sensory inputs, often achieved through the use of sensorymotor...
: To realise fish-like swim patterns by a robotic system poses tremendous challenges. This requires fully understanding of fish biomechanics and the way to mimic it. This paper pre...

— We propose a new method of tactile sensing for a fingertip of robotic hand based on the analysis of the mechanical constraints imposed to the contact between the fingertip an...
- This paper introduces a new perceptual model for Monte Carlo Localization (MCL). In our approach a 3D laser scanner is used to observe the ceiling. The MCL matches ceiling struct...
Abstract— This paper describes an investigation into the control of autonomous mobile sensor platforms in a marine sensor network used to provide monitoring of transitory phenome...
