— Modular robots have the potential to achieve a wide range of applications by reconfiguring their shapes to perform different functions. This requires robust and scalable contr...
— Range sensors are popular for localization since they directly measure the geometry of the local environment. Another distinct benefit is their typically high accuracy and spa...

Abstract— We present an efficient algorithm for complete motion planning that combines approximate cell decomposition (ACD) with probabilistic roadmaps (PRM). Our approach uses ...
: This paper presents a coarse coding technique and an action selection scheme for reinforcement learning (RL) in multi-dimensional and continuous state-action spaces following con...
Abstract— This paper addresses the problem of people detection using 2D range data and omnidirectional vision. The range data is often used in robotics to detect person legs. Fir...
—The fields of autonomous robotics and ambient intelligence are converging toward the vision of smart robotic environments, in which tasks are performed via the cooperation of m...
— Performance of a human size humanoid robot is strictly limited by performance of the motor. The progress of a motor has not been remarkable compared with the progress of electr...
— A climbing robot mechanism is introduced, which uses dynamic movements to climb between two parallel vertical walls. This robot relies on its own internal dynamic motions to ga...
