Abstract— Existing penalty-based haptic rendering approaches compute penetration depth in strictly translational sense and cannot properly take object rotation into account. We a...
Abstract— This paper proposes a global asymptotic stabilizing control law for a quad-rotor helicopter with bounded inputs. The proposed control design exploits the technique base...
Abstract— Distributed coordination is critical for a multirobot system in hazardous waste cleanup under a dynamic environment. To achieve higher efficiency as well as robustness,...
— Complex, autonomous robots integrate a large set of sometimes very diverse algorithms across at least three levels of system organization: the agent architecture, the implement...

– Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has become an important technique in practical surgical procedures. Compared with manually operated MIS procedures, surgical robot systems prov...
— This paper describes a navigation system for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in partially structured environments, such as dams, harbors, marinas or marine platforms. A m...
— Two feedback controllers that induce stable running gaits on a three-degree-of-freedom asymmetric hopper, termed the Asymmetric Spring Loaded Inverted Pendulum (ASLIP), see Fig...
