Currently one of the most important challenges is to bring robots out of factory floors to work alongside humans. Because these environments are characterized by a very large variety of objects, a key factor is to provide ...

A robot that will execute everyday object manip- ulation tasks needs a competent body that can handle as many different objects as possible in as many ways as possible. To accomplish this, we must design the robot body ...

This work focuses on the dynamic modeling of a flexible robotic manipulator with two flexible links and two revolute joints, which rotates in the horizontal plane. The dynamic equations are derived using the Newton-Euler ...

This paper gives an overview of a robotic architecture meant for skillful manipulation. This design is meant to close the gap between the high-level layer (reasoning and planing layer) and the object model system (physical ...

The equations corresponding to Newton-Euler iterative method for the determination of forces and moments acting on the rigid links of a robotic manipulator are given a new treatment using composed vectors for the representation ...
