Abstract— We study optimal trajectory generation for nonholonomic mobile robots in the presence of moving obstacles. The trajectory is presented by a parameterized higher-order p...
Abstract— We present a decentralized approach to multirobot manipulation where the team of robots surround and trap an object and transport it, by dragging or pushing, to the goa...
—A moth behavior-inspired strategy, including tracing a chemical plume to its source and declaring the source location, was tested in near shore ocean conditions via a REMUS unde...
Abstract— We present successful control strategies for dynamically stable robots that avoid low ceilings and other vertical obstacles in a manner similar to limbo dances. Given t...
Abstract— In general, a mobile robot that operates in unknown environments has to maintain a map and has to determine its own location given the map. This introduces significant...
