We review a range of techniques related to navigation of unmanned vehicles through
unknown environments with obstacles, especially those that rigorously ensure collision …

Technological advances in robotic hardware and software have enabled powered
exoskeletons to move from science fiction to the real world. The objective of this article is to …

Biped robots have gained much attention for decades. A variety of researches have been
conducted to make them able to assist or even substitute for humans in performing special …

This paper presents the mechatronic design and experimental validation of a novel powered
knee-ankle orthosis for testing torque-driven rehabilitation control strategies. The modular …

Humans' fingertips can perceive not only the magnitude and the direction of force but also
the texture of object. When we grasp an object, the surface texture sensing of the fingertip …

A nonholonomic system subjected to external noise from the environment, or internal noise
in its own actuators, will evolve in a stochastic manner described by an ensemble of …

Simultaneous localization and mapping is a mobile robot positioning themselves and
creating the map of the environment at the same time, which is the core problem of the …

Many industrial robots employ closed-loop actuating elements such as the parallelogram
mechanism for increased stiffness. Modeling these manipulators for the purpose of …

This paper presents adaptive impedance controllers with adaptive sliding mode friction
compensation for anthropomorphic artificial hand. A five-fingered anthropomorphic artificial …

The exoskeleton rehabilitation robot of the lower limb is a special robot. It is provided for the
users to wear outside, whereby artificial intelligence and mechanical power device are …
