— We study the motion planning problem for planar star-shaped manipulators. These manipulators are formed by joining k “legs” to a common point (like the thorax of an insect)...
Abstract. We study the application of limited-width MDDs (multivalued decision diagrams) as discrete relaxations for combinatorial optimization problems. These relaxations are used...

Several kinematic control algorithms for redundant manipulators adopt generalized inverse matrices. In this line of thought, the generalized inverse control scheme is tested throu...
—We present a new geometrical approach to solving inverse kinematics for continuous backbone (continuum) robot manipulators. First, this paper presents a solution to the inverse ...

This paper describes a new collision detection algorithm designed for interactive manipulation in virtual environments. Making some assumptions on objects motion, the collision ti...
