Unmanned underwater vehicles are increasingly employed for maintenance and surveying tasks at sea, but their operation in shallow waters is often hindered by hydrodynamic disturbances such as waves, currents, and turbulence. These unsteady flows can induce rapid changes in direction and speed, compr…
This letter addresses critical challenges in the dynamic modeling of biomimetic underwater robots, including heavy reliance on prior knowledge and difficulties in tracking time-varying models. To tackle these issues, we propose a control-oriented online identification framework based on the Koopman
Hyper-redundant tendon-driven manipulators offer greater flexibility and compliance over traditional manipulators. A common way of controlling such manipulators relies on adjusting tendon lengths, which is an accessible control parameter. This approach works well when the kinematic configuration is
With the increasing demand for human-computer interaction (HCI), flexible wearable gloves have emerged as a promising solution in virtual reality, medical rehabilitation, and industrial automation. However, the current technology still has problems like insufficient sensitivity and limited durabilit
This paper presents the development and hovering control of a tailsitter unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that merges long endurance and vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) abilities. The designed tailsitter contains one flying-wing with two motors and two elevons. Vehicle aerodynamics and a six-degree…
