— We present results of successful telemanipulation of large, heavy objects by a humanoid robot. Using a single joystick the operator controls walking and whole body manipulation...
— In this paper, we discuss the manipulation of an object under hybrid active/passive closure. We show the orthogonality between the directions of active and passive force closur...
This paper presents a scheme by which a manipulator can use dynamic tactile sensing to detect when it is about to lose hold of a grasped object and take preventive measures before...
Many future applications of robotic systems will require manipulators to operate from moving vehicles. Such vehicles will be compliant in comparison to the rigid bases on which mo...
