Exact cellular decompositions represent a robot's free space by dividing it into regions with simple structure such that the sum of the regions fills the free space. These de...

We address the problem of coupling cyclic robotic tasks to produce a specified coordinated behavior. Such coordination tasks are common in robotics, appearing in applications like...
We present method and implementation to acquire deformable models of elastic objects. The method is based on the Green's functions matrix representation of an elastic solid. ...
This paper presents a technique for mapping partially observable features from multiple uncertain vantage points. The problem of concurrent mapping and localization (CML) is state...

For assembly tasks parts often have to be oriented before they can be put in an assembly. The results presented in this paper are a component of the automated design of parts orie...
