Back Flips with a Hexapedal Robot
We report on the design and analysis of a controller which can achieve dynamical self-righting of our hexapedal robot, RHex. We present an empirically developed control procedure ...

Medial axis approximation from inner Voronoi balls: a demo of the Mesecina tool
We illustrate a simple algorithm for approximating the medial axis of a 2D shape with smooth boundary from a sample of this boundary. The algorithm is compared to a more general a...

Linking Feature Lines on 3D Triangle Meshes with Artificial Potential Fields
We propose artificial potential fields as a support theory for a feature linking algorithm. This algorithm operates on 3D triangle meshes derived from multiple range scans of an o...
