In this paper, a variable structure controller with time-varying sliding surface is proposed for robot manipulators. The proposed time-varying sliding surface ensures the ezistenc...
This paper presents a scheme by which a manipulator can use dynamic tactile sensing to detect when it is about to lose hold of a grasped object and take preventive measures before...
This report presents the development of tactile sensing-based control architecture in a multi-fingered humanoid robot arm for object manipulation tasks. With the aim to enhance the...

Most connectionist research has focused on learning mappings from one space to another (eg. classification and regression). This paper introduces the more general task of learnin...
— Several recently-designed robots are able to scale steep surfaces using animal-inspired strategies for foot attachment and leg kinematics. These designs could be valuable for r...
