— Scene registration of 3D laser rangefinder scans is increasingly being required in applications, such as mobile robotics, that demand a timely response. For speeding up point ...
— Two novel methods for computing 3D structure information from video for a piecewise planar scene are presented. The first method is based on a new line constraint, which clear...
Abstract— Distributed coordination is critical for a multirobot system in hazardous waste cleanup under a dynamic environment. To achieve higher efficiency as well as robustness,...
Abstract— We consider the problem of approximating a continuous curve by a piecewise linear one whose segments are assumed to be connected by universal joints. Rather than taking...
— In this paper, the tendon-sheath driving system for a robotic hand is presented and its force transmission characteristics are analyzed. The use of tendon-based transmission pe...
