A Stable Adaptive Extended Kalman Filter for Estimating Robot Manipulators Link Velocity and Acceleration
One can estimate the velocity and acceleration of robot manipulators by utilizing nonlinear observers. This involves combining inertial measurement units (IMUs) with the motor encoders of the robot through a model-based sensor fusion technique. This approa ...
New York2023Real-Time Dance Generation to Music for a Legged Robot
The development of robots that can dance has received considerable attention. However, they are often either limited to a pre-defined set of movements and music or demonstrate little variance when reacting to external stimuli, such as microphone or camera ...
2019Towards a Passive Adaptive Planar Foot with Ground Orientation and Contact Force Sensing for Legged Robots
Laura Isabel Paez Coy, Marco Hutter, Klajd Lika
Adapting to the ground enables stable footholds in legged locomotion by exploiting the structure of the terrain. On that account, we present a passive adaptive planar foot with three rotational degrees of freedom that is lightweight and thus suited for hig ...
2019From High-Level to Low-Level Robot Learning of Complex Tasks: Leveraging Priors, Metrics and Dynamical Systems
Nadia Barbara Figueroa Fernandez
Humans have a remarkable way of learning, adapting and mastering new manipulation
tasks. With the current advances in Machine Learning (ML), the promise of having
robots with such capabilities seems to be on the cusp of reality. Transferring human-level
sk ...
EPFL2019Closed-Loop Haptic Feedback Control Using a Self-Sensing Soft Pneumatic Actuator Skin
Stéphanie Lacour, Jamie Paik, Harshal Arun Sonar, Aaron Powers Gerratt
In this article, we achieve a closed-loop control over haptic feedback, first time for an entirely soft platform. We prototyped a novel self-sensing soft pneumatic actuator (SPA) with soft strain sensors, called SPA-skin, which withstands large multiaxial ...
2019Computational Design of Deployable Auxetic Shells
Mark Pauly, Mina Konakovic Lukovic
We propose an interactive computational design method for deployable auxetic shells. We realize deployable auxetics as triangular linkages that can be actuated with simple expansive mechanisms to assume a desired freeform target shape. The core feature of ...
2018A modular approach to learning manipulation strategies from human demonstration
Aude Billard, Miao Li, Ravin Luis De Souza
Object manipulation is a challenging task for robotics, as the physics involved in object interaction is complex and hard to express analytically. Here we introduce a modular approach for learning a manipulation strategy from human demonstration. Firstly w ...
