Robot Programming by Demonstration (PbD) aims at developing adaptive and robust controllers to enable the robot to learn new skills by observing and imitating a human demonstration. While the vast majority of PbD works focused on systems that learn a speci ...
In the high-precision industry, most operations require the use of robots able to accomplish highly accurate and repeatable motions. In order to meet the desired level of absolute accuracy, one has to limit or even suppress the effects of different sources ...
A major issue in the field of human-robot interaction for assistance to manipulation is transparency. This basic feature qualifies the capacity for a robot to follow human movements without any human-perceptible resistive forces. In this paper we address t ...
In robotics we depend on software tools during design, modeling, programming and testing. These tools are essentials, often indispensable aids for developing and operating sophisticated robotic systems. At the same time, these tools are complex and usually ...
This paper presents an innovative off-road wheeled mobile robot, named Octopus, able to deal autonomously with obstacles in rough terrain without getting stuck. To achieve such a performance, the robot is equipped with tilt sensors and tactile wheels. The ...
In the fields of semiconductors, opto-electronic interconnection and microsystems in general, the demand for precise positionning has grown along with the increasing miniaturization of the structures which are to be handled or tested. In many cases an inap ...
This paper presents an architecture for solving generically the problem of extracting the relevant features of a given task in a programming by demonstration framework and the problem of generalizing the acquired knowledge to various contexts. We validate ...
Humanoids remain luxurious robots, not easily purchasable or reproducible. The Robota project aims at building a low cost open humanoid platform, for use as educational tool for normal and disabled children. This paper reports on the mechanical design of a ...
An improvement over classical dynamic feedback linearization for the control of a nonholonomic mobile robot is proposed. The use of a state extension of higher dimension than in the case of dynamic feedback linearization helps reject constant disturbances ...
High precision positionning and assembly as well as micro-machining require dedicated devices. These devices have to provide high repeatability and precision on several degrees of freedom (dof). High dynamic characteristics are also sought to reach short t ...
