An Investigation into Non-Smooth Locomotion
We analyze a class of mechanisms that locomote by switching between constraints. Because of the hybrid nature of such systems, most of the existing analysis tools, developed prima...

Dextrous Manipulation by Rolling and Finger Gaiting
Many practical dextrous manipulation tasks involve large-scale motion of the grasped object while maintaining a stable grasp. To plan such tasks, one must control both the motion ...

Real-Time Estimation of Dominant Motion in Underwater Video Images for Dynamic Positioning
In this paper, we propose a 2D visual motion estimation method which can be exploited to achieve a dynamic positioning (eg. by gaze control) with respect to a sea-bottom area of i...
