This paper presents our approach towards realizing a robot which can bootstrap itself towards higher complexity through embodied interaction dynamics with the environment includin...
Abstract— In this paper, a position based impedance controller (i.e. admittance controller) is designed by utilizing measurements of a force/torque sensor, which is mounted at th...
— We address the problem of real-time navigation in dynamic environments for car-like robots. Our approach generalizes the concept of velocity obstacles, which have been used for...
— To introduce a passive compliant mechanism for robot joints is an effective way for impact absorption. However, because robot joints also require high torque transmission chara...
Abstract— We present a decentralized approach to multirobot manipulation where the team of robots surround and trap an object and transport it, by dragging or pushing, to the goa...
