Tactile sensing plays a pivotal role in human perception and manipulation tasks, allowing us to intuitively understand task dynamics and adapt our actions in real time. Transferring such tactile intelligence to robotic systems would help intelligent agents understand task constraints and accurately…
Extreme environments, such as search and rescue missions, defusing bombs, or exploring extraterrestrial planets, are unsafe environments for humans to be in. Robots enable humans to explore and interact in these environments through remote presence and teleoperation and virtual reality provides a me…
This paper introduces an anytime synthesized motion planning algorithm for humanoid robots unifying locomotion and manipulation planning. It generates an entire set of motions to finish specific tasks in an environment containing obstacles by exploiting a powerful inverse kinematics (IK) engine. The…
