On Achieving Periodic Joint-Motion for Redundant Robots

Denis Gillet, Philippe Müllhaupt

The consequence of the loss of involutivity of a specific set of vector fields on the periodicity of the joint motion is examined for redundant robots. An output task, defined as a one dimensional periodic closed curve embedded in a two dimensional working ...

Towards a Cognitive Probabilistic Representation of Space for Mobile Robots

Roland Siegwart, Shrihari Vasudevan

Robots are rapidly evolving from factory workhorses to robot-companions . The future of robots, as our companions, is highly dependent on their abilities to understand, interpret and represent the environment in an efficient and consistent fashion, in a ...

MICRON: Small Autonomous Robot for Cell Manipulation Applications

Jean-Marc Breguet

Manipulating in the micro- or even nano world still poses a great challenge to robotics. Conventional (stationary) systems suffer from drawbacks regarding integration into process supervision and multi-robot approaches, which become highly relevant to figh ...
