This paper describes a method for Event handling on Robot Town platform and its application by using a wheelchair robot. To enable a sharable personal mobility robot system by using a motorized wheelchair on the market, vision sensors and RFID tags are distributed and are connected to a network. Sensor data are used by the robot for not only the event to perform self-localization but also the event...
This paper proposes an exploration method for an automated 3D map generation of an unknown environment by using a group of robots equipped with LRF (laser range finder). The robots are composed of a parent robot measuring its environmental structure and two child robots being used as landmarks for localization of the parent robot. The method decides positions of the robots to generate the accurate...
This paper proposes a novel control method for stable object grasping and orientation control using a dual-arm manipulator with multi-fingered hands. The control signal of the proposed method is simple but it can easily achieve stable grasping without external sensors and an orientation control of a grasped object. Firstly, holonomic constraints between a dual-arm manipulator with multi-fingered hands...
The present paper describes a decision method for the placement of mechanical tactile elements for grasp type recognition. Based on the mutual information of the manipulation tasks and tactile information, an effective placement of tactile elements on a sensing glove is determined. Although the effective placement consists of a small number of tactile elements, it has a recognition performance that...
