— This paper presents a fail-safe platform on which cooperative mobile robots rely for their motion. The platform consists of a collision prevention protocol for a dynamic group ...
- It is important to identify how much the appearance of a humanoid robot affects human behaviors toward it. We compared participants' impressions of and behaviors toward two ...
In formation-maintenance (formation control) tasks, robots maintain their relative position with respect to their peers, according to a desired geometric shape. Previous work has e...

Abstract--This paper addresses the challenging problem of finding collision-free trajectories for many robots moving toward individual goals within a common environment. Most popul...
This paper presents a methodology for the realization of intelligent, task-based reconfiguration of the computational hardware for mobile robot applications. Task requirements are ...
In this paper, we report on the integration challenges of the various component technologies developed towards the establishment of a framework for deploying an adaptive system of...
