- In nature, fish has astonishing swimming ability after thousands years of evolution. To realise fish-like swimming behaviours by a robotic system poses tremendous challenges, esp...
— Classical visual servoing approaches tend to constrain all degrees of freedom (DOF) of the robot during the execution of a task. In this article a new approach is proposed. The...
Abstract— Constructing climbing behaviors for hyperredundant robots that account for the system dynamics requires a model of robot dynamics under contact and friction. One common...
Abstract— We derive a local minimum of an elastic potential energy due to the deformation of a hemispherical soft fingertip, and propose a quasi-static manipulation algorithm us...
Abstract— We aim at developing autonomous microflyers capable of navigating within houses or small built environments. The severe weight and energy constraints of indoor flying...
