Model Predictive Parkour Control of a Monoped Hopper in Dynamically Changing Environments
Maximilian Albracht, Shivesh Kumar, Shubham Vyas +1
A great advantage of legged robots is their ability to operate on particularly difficult and obstructed terrain, which demands dynamic, robust, and precise movements. The study of…
Enhancing Otological Surgery: Co-Designing a Parallel Robot with Surgeon Input
Durgesh Haribhau Salunkhe, Guillaume Michel, Shivesh Kumar +1
This work presents the development of a parallel manipulator used for otological surgery from the perspective of co-design. Co-design refers to the simultaneous involvement of the…
RicMonk: A Three-Link Brachiation Robot with Passive Grippers for Energy-Efficient Brachiation
Shourie S. Grama, Mahdi Javadi, Shivesh Kumar +2
This paper presents the design, analysis, and performance evaluation of RicMonk, a novel three-link brachiation robot equipped with passive hook-shaped grippers. Brachiation, an ag…
Towards Continuous Time Finite Horizon LQR Control in SE(3)
Shivesh Kumar, Andreas Mueller, Patrick Wensing +1
The control of free-floating robots requires dealing with several challenges. The motion of such robots evolves on a continuous manifold described by the Special Euclidean Group of…
AcroMonk: A Minimalist Underactuated Brachiating Robot
Mahdi Javadi, Daniel Harnack, Paula Stocco +4
Brachiation is a dynamic, coordinated swinging maneuver of body and arms used by monkeys and apes to move between branches. As a unique underactuated mode of locomotion, it is inte…
