Towards a dynamic actuator model for a hexapod robot
We describe a model predicting the output torque of the battery-amplifier-actuator-gear combination used on the hexapod robot RHex, based on requested PWM (PulseWidth-Modulation) ...

Wearable-based evaluation of human-robot interactions in robot path-planning
In Robotics, many path-planning algorithms have been proposed but almost all are evaluated only by their path lengths in PC. However, the evaluation is completely independent of a...
