— Classical visual servoing approaches tend to constrain all degrees of freedom (DOF) of the robot during the execution of a task. In this article a new approach is proposed. The...
— This paper proposes an approach to robust state estimation for mobile robots with intermittent dynamics. The approach consists of identifying the robot’s mode of operation by...

– We describe a monocular robot vision system which accomplishes accurate 3-DOF dead-reckoning, closedloop motion control, and precipice and obstacle detection, all in dynamic en...

– We describe in detail the behavior of an inhibitory Central Pattern Generator (CPG) network for robot control. A four-neuron, mutual inhibitory network forms the basic coordina...
