Analytical and experimental studies of the dynamics of variable topology systems
(KC Edizioni, 2009)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyMechanical systems with time-varying topology appear frequently in various applications. The nature of topology transition is a key characteristic in the performance of such systems. In this paper, a concept to decouple ... -
Calibrating an outdoor distributed camera network using laser range finder data
(IEEE Press. Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-10-11)
Conference report
Open AccessOutdoor camera networks are becoming ubiquitous in critical urban areas of large cities around the world. Although current applications of camera networks are mostly limited to video surveillance, recent research projects ... -
Determination of independent contact regions on discretized 3D objects
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2007-07)
Conference report
Open AccessThis paper deals with the problem of determining independent contact regions on a 3D object boundary such that a seven finger frictionless grasp with a contact point in each region assures a force-closure grasp on the ... -
Dynamic positioning of a mobile robot using a laser-based goniometer
(M.I.Ribeiro, J. Santos Victor, 2004)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyPositioning is a fundamental problem in mobile robot navigation. Several approaches to cope with the dynamic positioning problem have been made. Most of them are based on the inconsistent use of the algorithm for static ... -
Dynamics of Heel Strike in Bipedal Systems with Circular Feet
(Marco Ceccarelli, 2008)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyEnergetic efficiency is a fundamental subject of research in bipedal robot locomotion. In such systems, the collision of the foot with the ground at heel strike is the main cause of energy loss during the gait. In this ... -
Efficient search of obstacle-free paths for anthropomorphic hands
(IEEE Press. Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009-10-11)
Conference report
Open AccessThe planning of collision-free motions of a handarm system to reach a grasp or preshape configuration is not a simple issue due to the high number of involved degrees of freedom. This paper presents an efficient sampling-based ... -
Finding all valid hand configurations for a given precision grasp
(2008)
Conference report
Open AccessPlanning a precision grasp for a robot hand is usually decomposed into two main steps. First, a set of contact points over the object surface must be determined, ensuring they allow a stable grasp. Second, the inverse ... -

Haptic guidance with force feedback to assist teleoperation systems via high speed networks
(VDI Verlag, 2006-05)
Conference report
Open AccessThe employment of haptic devices in teleoperation systems and the use of motion restrictions during robot teleoperation provide the operator with increased awareness and can considerably improve the feeling of immersion ... -
Haptic Primitives Guidance Based on the Kautham Path Planner
(IEEE, 2010)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyPath planning methods are well suited to automatically perform robotic tasks; haptic guidance is a powerful tool for disabled people rehabilitation, sports training, handcraft skills acquiring and such kind of enactive ... -
Mobile robot localization. Revisiting the triangulation methods
(International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC), 2006)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyLocalization is one of the fundamental problems in mobile robot navigation. In this context, triangulation is used to determine the robot pose from landmarks position and angular measurements. The method based on circle ... -
Passive bilateral teleoperation framework for assisted robotic tasks
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2006-04)
Conference report
Open AccessThis paper addresses the problem of stable bilateral teleoperation, through a time-delayed communication channel, for a n-DOF system without position drift. The classical wave variables-based scheme encodes velocity and ... -
Regrasp planning for discrete objects
(2009)
Conference report
Open AccessThis paper proposes an algorithm for regrasp planning of 2D and 3D discrete objects, such that the regrasp trajectory ensures a force-closure (FC) grasp while the regrasp motion is performed. The approach takes advantage ... -
Regrasp planning in the grasp space using independent regions
(2009)
Conference report
Open AccessThis paper presents an approach for quasi-static regrasp planning using n fingers, taking advantage of a method that quickly explores the grasp space for discrete objects. The approach relies on a sampling method, which ... -
Searching form-closure fixturing points on objects described by triangular meshes
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2007-07)
Conference report
Open AccessThe paper deals with the problem of finding a form-closure fixturing of objects modeled with triangular meshes and considering as quality measure the maximum wrench that the object can resist in any direction. Although a ... -
