Functional labels provide a simple but very reusable way for defining the functionality of a system and for making use of that knowledge. Unlike more complex functional representa...
— In this paper, the tendon-sheath driving system for a robotic hand is presented and its force transmission characteristics are analyzed. The use of tendon-based transmission pe...
We describe the results of a set of evolutionary experiments in which a simulated robotic arm provided with a two-fingered hand has to reach and grasp objects with different shape...
A method of running pattern generation for a humanoid robot using the dynamics of a simple inverted pendulum is proposed. Dynamic simulation using a model of an actual humanoid ro...
Well designed models can provide timely answers and summarize understanding of complex systems. Simple use cases can illustrate the applicability and inferences possible with even...
