Information Requirements of Collision-Based Micromanipulation
Alexandra Q. Nilles, Ana Pervan, Thomas A. Berrueta +2
We present a task-centered formal analysis of the relative power of several robot designs, inspired by the unique properties and constraints of micro-scale robotic systems. Our tas…
Virtual Reality for Robots
Markku Suomalainen, Alexandra Q. Nilles, Steven M. LaValle
This paper applies the principles of Virtual Reality (VR) to robots, rather than living organisms. A simulator, of either physical states or information states, renders outputs to…
Robot Design: Formalisms, Representations, and the Role of the Designer
Alexandra Q. Nilles, Dylan A. Shell, Jason M. O'Kane
The objective of this paper is to distill the following essential idea from the RSS 2016 Workshop on Minimality and Design Automation and the RSS 2017 Workshop on Minimality and Tr…
Choreographic and Somatic Approaches for the Development of Expressive Robotic Systems
Amy LaViers, Catie Cuan, Madison Heimerdinger +10
As robotic systems are moved out of factory work cells into human-facing environments questions of choreography become central to their design, placement, and application. With a h…
