We study the complexity of the motion planning problem for a bounded-reach robot in the situation where the n obstacles in its workspace satisfy two of the realistic models propos...

— The rapidly increasing complexity of tasks robotic systems are expected to carry out underscores the need for the development of motion planners that can take into account disc...
A fundamental task for an autonomous robot is to plan its own motions. Exact approaches to the solution of this motion planning problem suffer from high worst-case running times. ...

— An active cannula is a medical device composed of thin, pre-curved, telescoping tubes that may enable many new surgical procedures. Planning optimal motions for these devices i...
— 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...
