— This paper addresses the multiple tasks performing issues for redundant nonholonomic mobile manipulators. An extended gradient projection redundancy resolution scheme is propos...
:This paper presents a trajectory planning algorithm for mobile robots which may be subject to kinodynamic constraints. Using computational methods from noncommutative harmonic ana...
Many practical dextrous manipulation tasks involve large-scale motion of the grasped object while maintaining a stable grasp. To plan such tasks, one must control both the motion ...
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, ...
Abstract In this paper we address whole-body manipulation of bulky objects by a humanoid robot. We adopt a "pivoting" manipulation method that allows the humanoid to disp...
