On the Motion Control of a Nonholonomic Soccer Playing Robot
A nonlinear control law to steer the unicycle model to a static or dynamic target pose is presented. If the target is static the control signals are smooth in their arguments and t...

3D Needle-Tissue Interaction Simulation for Prostate Brachytherapy
This paper presents a needle-tissue interaction model that is a 3D extension of a prior work based on the finite element method. The model is also adapted to accommodate arbitrary ...

The Stochastic Motion Roadmap: A Sampling Framework for Planning with Markov Motion Uncertainty
— We present a new motion planning framework that explicitly considers uncertainty in robot motion to maximize the probability of avoiding collisions and successfully reaching a ...

Visual navigation and obstacle avoidance using a steering potential function
Humans have a remarkable ability to navigate using only vision, but mobile robots have not been nearly as successful. We propose a new approach to vision-guided local navigation, ...

Extremal Trajectories for Bounded Velocity Mobile Robots
Previous work [3, 6, 9, 8, 7, 1] has presented the time optimal trajectories for three classes of non-holonomic mobile robots: steered cars that can only go forwards, steered cars...
