Crawling and Jumping by a Deformable Robot
We describe crawling and jumping by a deformable robot. Locomotion over rough terrain has been achieved mainly by rigid body systems including crawlers and leg mechanisms. This pap...

Space-carving Kernels for Accurate Rough Terrain Estimation
Abstract— Accurate terrain estimation is critical for autonomous offroad navigation. Reconstruction of a 3D surface allows rough and hilly ground to be represented, yielding fast...
