3D object reconstruction from Swissranger sensor data using a spring-mass model
(INSTICC Press. Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication, 2009)
Capítol de llibre
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialWe register close-range depth images of objects using a Swissranger sensor and apply a spring-mass model for 3D object reconstruction. The Swissranger sensor delivers depth images in real time which have, compared with ... -
A bayesian approach to simultaneously recover camera pose and non-rigid shape from monocular images
(2016)
Article
Accés obertIn this paper we bring the tools of the Simultaneous Localization and Map Building (SLAM) problem from a rigid to a deformable domain and use them to simultaneously recover the 3D shape of non-rigid surfaces and the sequence ... -
A branch-and-prune method to solve closure equations in dual quaternions
(2021)
Article
Accés obertUsing dual quaternions, the closure equations of a kinematic loop can be expressed as a system of multiaffine quations. In this paper, this property is leveraged to introduce a branch-and-prune method specially tailored ... -
A Cloud robotics architecture to foster individual child partnership in medical facilities
(2013)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés obertRobots and automation systems have become a valuable partner in several facets of human life: from learning and teaching, to daily working, including health monitoring and assistance. So far, these appealing robot-based ... -
A hierarchical framework for collaborative artificial intelligence
(2023-01)
Article
Accés obertWe propose a hierarchical framework for collaborative intelligent systems. This framework organizes research challenges based on the nature of the collaborative activity and the information that must be shared, with each ... -
A linear relaxation technique for the position analysis of multi-loop linkages
(2008)
Report de recerca
Accés obertThis report presents a new method able to isolate all configurations that a multi-loop linkage can adopt. We tackle the problem by providing formulation and resolution techniques that fit particularly well together. The ... -
A novel path planning proposal based on the combination of deterministic sampling and harmonic functions
(2007-03)
Report de recerca
Accés obertThe sampling-based approach is currently the most successful and yet more promising approach to path planning problems. Sampling-based methods are demonstrated to be probabilistic complete, being their performance reliant ... -
A simple yet smart head module for mobile manipulators
(2023)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés obertMobile manipulators working in semi-structured human environments need smart vision capabilities to perceive the world and interact with human operators. With this purpose in mind, this paper presents the development of a ... -
A space decomposition method for path planning of loop linkages
(IEEE, 2007)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés obertThis paper introduces box approximations as a new tool for path planning of closed-loop linkages. Box approximations are finite collections of rectangloids that tightly envelop the robot's free space at a desired resolution. ... -

A Stiffness-fault-tolerant control strategy for an elastically actuated powered knee orthosis
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialElastic actuators can provide safe human-robot interaction and energy efficient mobility. For this purpose they are ideal for wearable robotic applications. However, such actuators are subject to stiffness faults. We present ... -
A topological extension of movement primitives for curvature modulation and sampling of robot motion
(Springer Nature, 2021)
Article
Accés obertThis paper proposes to enrich robot motion data with trajectory curvature information. To do so,we use an approximate implementation of a topological feature named writhe, which measures the curling of a closed curve around ... -
A Versatile Gripper for Cloth Manipulation
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-10)
Article
Accés obertCloth manipulation has been mostly advancing in perception and modeling methods for cloth state estimation and grasping point detection. In comparison, less attention has been put on end-effector design. Indeed, most ... -
A view of network robot systems in urban areas in Europe
(IEEE, 2008)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés obertPresentation of the projects in network robot systems in Europe -
A wire-based active tracker
(IEEE, 2008)
Article
Accés obertWire-based tracking devices are an affordable alternative to costly tracking devices. They consist of a fixed base and a platform, attached to the moving object, connected by six wires whose tension is maintained along the ... -
A wrench-sensitive touch pad based on a parallel structure
(IEEE, 2008)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés obertMany different robotic in-parallel structures have been conceived as six-component force sensors. In general, they perform well for most applications but, when accuracy is a must, two main limitations arise. First, in most ... -
ACHORD: communication-aware multi-robot coordination with intermittent connectivity
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2022)
Article
Accés obertCommunication is an important capability for multi-robot exploration because (1) inter-robot communication (comms) improves coverage efficiency and (2) robot-to-base comms improves situational awareness. Exploring ... -
Action rule induction from cause-effect pairs learned through robot-teacher interaction
