—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...
Abstract— Real-world robotic environments are highly structured. The scalability of planning and reasoning methods to cope with complex problems in such environments crucially de...
— Robots’ interaction with humans raises new issues for geometrical reasoning where the humans must be taken explicitly into account. We claim that a human-aware motion system ...
