—This paper proposes the use of Electric Field Sensors to implement “pretouch” for robotic grasping. Weakly electric fish use this perceptual channel, but it has not received...
— Simulation is becoming an increasingly important aspect of mobile robots. As we are better able to simulate the real world, we can usefully perform more research in simulated e...
For a system of cooperative mobile robots to be effective in real-world applications, it must be able to efficiently execute a wide class of complex tasks in potentially unknown a...
This paper describes SRIPPs, structured reactive image processing plans, that are tailored for the needs of autonomous service robots. SRIPPs are implemented on top of a modular, d...
