—Robotic surgical assistants are enhancing physician performance, enabling physicians to perform more delicate and precise minimally invasive surgery. However, these devices are ...
— We present an algorithm that probabilistically covers a bounded region of the state space of a nonlinear system with a sparse tree of feedback stabilized trajectories leading t...
— Planetary surface exploration rovers must accurately and efficiently predict their mobility on natural, rough terrain. Most approaches to mobility prediction assume precise a p...
— This paper is concerned with determining whether a mobile robot, called the pursuer, is up to maintaining visibility of an antagonist agent, called the evader. This problem, a ...
