— This paper investigates how to generate cyclic gaits for multi-bodied isolated mechanical systems whose configuration space is represented by a trivial fiber bundle. We descr...
– We describe a monocular robot vision system which accomplishes accurate 3-DOF dead-reckoning, closedloop motion control, and precipice and obstacle detection, all in dynamic en...
