This paper presents a novel control approach, based on the interconnection and damping-assignment passivity-based control (IDA-PBC), to achieve stable and periodic walking for underactuated planar biped robots with one degree of underactuation. The system's physical structure is preserved by assigni…
Depalletizing robotic systems are commonly deployed to automatize and speed-up parts of logistic processes. Despite this, the necessity to adapt the preexisting logistic processes to the automatic systems often impairs the application of such robotic solutions to small business realities like superm
Automatic depalletizing is becoming a practice widely applied in warehouses to automatize and speed-up logistics. On the other hand, the necessity to adapt the preexisting logistic lines to a custom automatic system can be a limit for the application of robotic solutions into smaller facilities like
A compass-like biped robot can go down a gentle slope without the need of actuation through a proper choice of its dynamic parameter and starting from a suitable initial condition. Addition of control actions is requested to generate additional gaits and robustify the existing one. This paper design…
Integrating a robotic system into the depalletizing process of a supermarket demands a high level of autonomy, based on strong perceptive capabilities. This letter presents a system for detection, recognition, and localization of heterogeneous cases in a depalletizing robotic cell, using a single RG
