— The paper proposes several improvements on the Direction of Gradient (DOG) algorithm proposed in [1] for detecting and localizing a biochemical source with moving sensors. In p...
– A vision-based obstacle detection system for small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is presented. Obstacles are detected by segmenting the image into sky and non-sky regions and...
Abstract— The latest technological progress in sensors, actuators and energy storage devices enables the developments of miniature VTOL1 systems. In this paper we present the res...
— Rendering a stiff virtual wall remains a core challenge in the field of haptics. A passivity study of this problem is presented, which relates the maximum achievable wall stif...
— This paper presents an approach for haptic rendering of topological constraints to users operating serial virtual linkages. In the proposed approach, a haptic device controller...
