Flexible needle insertion into viscoelastic tissue is modeled in this paper with a linear beam supported by virtual springs. Using this simplified model, the forward and inverse ki...
An important challenge in virtual environment applications is to steer virtual characters through complex and dynamic worlds. The characters should be able to plan their paths and...

The paper considers a technique for computation of the inverse kinematic model of the human arm. The approach is based on measurements of the hand position and orientation as well ...
We present a simple approach for planning the motion of nonholonomic robots among obstacles. Existing methods lead to open-loop solutions which are either obtained in two stages, ...
