The population in the US is aging rapidly. By 2030, twenty percent of the US population will be 65 years or older. Both physical and mental health conditions impact older adults' overall quality of life. Recently, Socially Assistive Robotic (SAR) systems have been developed to augment the existing resource-strained healthcare facilities. Several SAR systems were developed to maintain and/or improve...
A new approach to autonomous pursuit evasion by a wheeled mobile robot in the presence of wheel slip is presented. Classical pursuit evasion problem, such as the Homicidal Chauffeur problem, considers the kinematic model of the pursuer and does not consider slip in its trajectory, and thus cannot predict a realistic pursuit evasion scenario. In this work we present a new dynamics-based approach to...
