“Hello, I'm the TERMINATOR, and I'll be your server today”. Diners might soon be feeling this
greeting, with Optimus Prime in the kitchen and Wall-E then sending your order to C-3PO. In …

This article proposes a shared-control teleoperation architecture for robot manipulators
transporting an object on a tray. Differently from many existing studies about remotely …

This paper tackles the problem of nonprehensile object transportation through a legged
manipulator. A whole-body control architecture is devised to prevent sliding of the object …

This article proposes a model predictive non-sliding manipulation (MPNSM) control
approach to safely transport an object on a tray-like end-effector of a robotic manipulator. For …

We consider a nonprehensile manipulation task in which a mobile manipulator must
balance objects on its end effector without grasping them—known as the waiter's problem …

This work proposes an operational space control framework for non-prehensile object
transportation using a robot arm. The control actions for the manipulator are computed by …

This paper develops an intelligent control approach for achieving the non-linear control of a
two degrees of freedom (2DoF) ball balancer system. The ball balancer system provides an …

This work presents an extension of balance control for torque-controlled humanoid robots.
Within a non-strict task hierarchy, the controller allows the robot to use the feet end-effectors …

This paper describes the procedure followed for using third-party tools and applications,
avoiding the development of complex communication software modules for data sharing. A …

This paper presents the design of Mamdani Fuzzy Inference System and Sugeno Fuzzy
Inference System for controlling the ball position of two degree of freedom ball balancer …
