Direct TPS-based 3D non-rigid motion estimation on 3D colored point cloud in eye-in-hand configuration

IROS 2024poster

In this paper, a method for 3D non-rigid motion estimation of a surface using an RGB-D camera in eye-in-hand configuration is presented. The eye-in-hand configuration eliminates errors typically associated with camera-end-effector calibration, and is thus desirable for task on moving surfaces such a…

Decoupled Model Predictive Control for Path Following on Complex Surfaces

RA-L 2023

The present letter proposes a predictive path following control (PPFC) that controls 5 degrees of freedom (DoFs) of the end-effector while the remaining (decoupled) translational DoF should be controlled by an external controller. This PPFC is particularly useful for the path following on surfaces w

Geometric Optimization of a Large Scale CDPR Operating on a Building Facade

IROS 2018poster

This paper deals with the optimization of the geometry of a Cable-Driven Parallel Robot (CDPR) dedicated to large-scale construction applications. Since the maximum cable tension is a critical parameter in the design of the CDPR components, the geometry of the CDPR is optimized by minimizing the low…
