Precision assembly tasks like peg-in-hole remain challenging for robotic manipulation. While visual servoing offers a robust framework, it depends heavily on accurate calibration and manual feature engineering. Learning-based methods, including vision-language models (VLMs), provide strong semantic …
This paper presents an optimal motion planning framework to generate versatile energy-optimal quadrupedal jumping motions automatically (e.g., flips, spin). The jumping motions via the centroidal dynamics are formulated as a 12-dimensional black-box optimization problem subject to the robot kino-dyn…
While the mechanism of Rope-Climbing provides much flexibility, it opens up challenges to the development of the controller for Robotic Manipulator installed on Rope-Climbing robot(RCR), which is called Rope-Climbing Robot Manipulator(RCRM) here. In particular, the deformable nature of the rope resu…
Wall polishing is a typical and essential procedure in the interior renovation. However, such works are mainly carried out by humans, which have the disadvantages of low efficiency, inconsistent quality, and issues of safety and health. A new vision-based impedance controller is proposed for polishi…
The ability of rope-climbing robots in aloft operation is limited by its self-supporting and locomotion ability. In many applications, a given task is also too complex to be achieved by a single rope-climbing robot acting alone. The solution of multiple rope-climbing robots can overcome the limitati…
