This paper presents a novel approach for vehicle localization by leveraging the ambient magnetic field within a given environment. Our approach involves introducing a global mathematical function for magnetic field mapping, combined with Euclidean distance-based matching technique for accurately est…
Mechanics and control of innovative gyroscopic structural systems are detailed in the paper. By adding controllable spinning wheels to a network of controllable, axially loaded strings and bars, it is shown that the mobility and manipulation of the structural system are enhanced. Using principles of
Feedback control problems pertaining to the control of tensegrity robotic systems are detailed in this paper. The unique problems that arise due to the positivity of the string tensions required to maintain the static stability and desirable stiffness of the structural system are shown to bring abou…
