Autonomous mobile robots need good models of their environment, sensors and actuators to navigate reliably and efficiently. While this information can be supplied by humans, or le...
Grasping a curved object free in the plane may be done through rolling a pair of fingers on the object’s boundary. Each finger is equipped with a tactile sensor able to record...
— This paper presents a method for Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), relying on a monocular camera as the only sensor, which is able to build outdoor, closed-loop map...

— This paper describes the design and testing of a technique to enable long-range autonomous navigation using a stereo camera as the only sensor. During a learning phase, the rov...
Aircraft tracking has applications in guided landing, automatic scoring in aerobatics and target tracking for military. Radar based tracking is expensive, gives away the position ...
