— In this paper, we apply a general framework for building complex whole-body control for highly redundant robot, and we propose to implement it for visually-guided grasping whil...
—Although fall is a rare event in the life of a humanoid robot, we must be prepared for it because its consequences are serious. In this paper we present a fall strategy which ra...
— This paper addresses the problem of naturally looking and energy efficient walk of biped humanoids. We presuppose that such walk requires motion control capability around kine...
