We describe an integrated system for programming part-mating and contact tasks using simulation. A principal goal of this work is to make robotic programming easy and intuitive fo...
: A seven axis haptic device, called the Freedom-7, is described in relation to its application to surgical training. The generality of its concept makes it also relevant to most o...

The kinematics and force/displacement relationships of elements of biological joints are notoriously difficult to understand. In particular, the human knee has bearing surfaces o...
: This paper describes experiments with an electrically actuated one legged hopping robot, the ARL Monopod. While a spring-mass system, comprised of the leg spring and the body mas...
Abstract: This paper propose an adaptive visual servoing method consisting of an on-line estimator of the robot/image Jacobian matrix and a feedback/feedforward controller for unca...
