Aerial manipulation is a growing field of research, and multirotors with attached arm manipulator have shown practical utility in contact-based inspection. However, theses coupled platforms limit the pose reachability of the end-effector, which then motivates the development of omni-directional desi
In mechanical systems, control parameters are often manually tuned by an expert through trial and error, which is labor-intensive and time-consuming. In addition, the difficulty of this problem is that there often exist multiple solutions that provide high returns. As a designed objective function i
Recently, there are an increasing number of developing wearable devices that intent to display various contents. As can be seen in sign languages and hand signals, hand gestures can express rich information with small motions, therefore, they are useful input for those devices. Especially, these ges…
In order to perform productive autonomous excavation of a fragmented rock pile, it is necessary to recognize the condition of the fragmented rock pile and to plan appropriate excavating motion according to the condition of the fragmented rock pile. In this paper, we propose imitation-based motion pl…
