— The purpose of this paper is to present preliminary results on the use of a torque sensor based on a Bragg grating for torque control applications of tendon-driven mechanisms. ...
— This paper presents a new method for reactive collision avoidance for mobile robots in complex and cluttered environments. Our technique is to adapt the “divide and conquer...
Abstract— This paper develops an approach for on-line segmentation of whole body human motion patterns during human motion observation and learning. A Hidden Markov Model is used...
Abstract— We present as a contribution to the field of humanmachine interaction a system that analyzes human movements online through multiple observers, based on the concept of...
— In this paper, we propose a novel method for dexterous manipulation planning problem of rotating object with surface of revolution using a robotic multi-fingered hand. This me...
— This paper presents a solution to the problem of steering a group of real omnidirectional mobile robots along a given path, while maintaining a desired formation pattern. This ...
— Motion planning for robots with many degrees of freedom (DoF) is a generally unsolved problem in the robotics context. In this work an approach for trajectory planning is prese...
