This paper discusses the simulation of vehicle kinematics with SimVis3D and the Newton Game Dynamics Engine. As running example a Pioneer1 like robot is used. First its differenti...
Abstract. The idea of component-based software engineering was proposed more that 40 years ago, yet only few robotics software frameworks follow these ideas. The main problem with ...
Abstract. Existing legged robots lack energy-efficiency, performance and adaptivity when confronted with situations that animals cope with on a routine basis. Bridging the gap bet...

To benchmark the efficiency of exploration strategies one has to use robot simulators. In an exploration task, the robot faces an unknown environment. Of course one could test the ...
This paper presents the modeling of the light-weight BioRob robot arm with series elastic actuation for simulation and controller design. We describe the kinematic coupling introdu...
From exploring planets to cleaning homes, the reach and versatility of robotics is vast. The integration of actuation, sensing and control makes robotics systems powerful, but comp...

Stability of bipedal locomotion is analyzed using a model of a planar biped written in the framework of systems with unilateral constraints. Based on this model, two different sta...
Middleware has a key role in modern and object-oriented robotics frameworks, which aim at developing reusable, scalable and maintainable systems using different platforms and prog...
