Abstract: In this paper, we formulated a systematic design methodology for the design of planar sixand eightbar slider mechanisms for motion generation applications that require more complex motion than the slider–crank mechanism. ...

Abstract: This paper describes a sampling strategy for the dynamic window approach (DWA), a local path planner, for omni-directional robot motion planning. An efficient local planner allows the robot to quickly respond to dynamic ...

Abstract: This article describes the development and evaluation of our passively actuated closed-loop articulated wearable (CLAW) that uses a common slider to passively drive its exo-fingers for use in physical training of people ...
