— A hexapod designed for wall climbing with a body joint and 3-DOF legs can perform complex maneuvers such as sharp turns, making both interior and exterior transitions between v...
- In many fields employing robots, e.g., wheelchair robots, rescue robots, and construction robots, those which can move on rough terrain are desired. A robot with a simple mechani...
— The paper describes the control and the navigation of a skiing robot that is capable of autonomous skiing on a ski slope using the carving skiing technique. Based on a complex ...
Abstract— We consider the problem of robotic object detection of such objects as mugs, cups, and staplers in indoor environments. While object detection has made significant pro...

Abstract— We consider the problem of planning collisionfree motions for general (i.e., possibly nonholonomic) redundant robots subject to task space constraints. Previous approac...
Abstract— Fire brigades and special agencies are often demanded to operate for search and aid of human lives in extremely dangerous scenarios. It is very important to first veri...
