— In this paper a novel formalism to characterize contact states between an articulated polyhedral object and a polyhedral environment for the generation of the graph of feasible...
— This paper presents an operational space control approach for the general class of holonomically constrained multibody systems. As a point of departure, the general formulation...
— Moments are generic (and usually intuitive) descriptors that can be computed from several kinds of objects defined either from closed contours or from a set of points. In this...
— We continue our investigation into the application of pervasive, embedded networks to support multi-robot tasks. In this work we use a new a hardware platform, the GNATs, to ai...
