Abstract. In this paper new results are presented for tracking complex multi-body objects. The theoretical framework is based on robotics techniques and uses an a-priori model of t...
In this paper, we present a non-intrusive method for human motion estimation from a monocular video camera for the teleoperation of ROBONAUT (ROBOtic astroNAUT). ROBONAUT is an an...

Abstract— In human-robot communication it is often important to relate robot sensor readings to concepts used by humans. We suggest to use a virtual sensor (one or several physic...
We present a novel geometric model for robot mapping based on shape. Shape similarity measure and matching techniques originating from computer vision are specially redesigned for ...
