— We present a system of coupled nonlinear oscillators to be used as programmable central pattern generators, and apply it to control the locomotion of a humanoid robot. Central ...
The interactive manipulation of rigid objects in virtual reality environments requires an object behaviour which is at least physically plausible to be useful for applications lik...
— In a haptic teleoperation system, the incorporation of knowledge about the remote environment in the controller design can improve stability and performance. Model-mediated tel...

Abstract--In this paper, we investigate the potential of a selfpowered gliding aircraft to remain aloft indefinitely. We focus specifically on operations in the jet stream where pe...
