Deploying the NASA Valkyrie Humanoid for IED Response: An Initial Approach and Evaluation Summary
Steven Jens Jorgensen, Michael W. Lanighan, Sylvain S. Bertrand +19
As part of a feasibility study, this paper shows the NASA Valkyrie humanoid robot performing an end-to-end improvised explosive device (IED) response task. To demonstrate and evalu…
Finding Locomanipulation Plans Quickly in the Locomotion Constrained Manifold
Steven Jens Jorgensen, Mihir Vedantam, Ryan Gupta +2
We present a method that finds locomanipulation plans that perform simultaneous locomotion and manipulation of objects for a desired end-effector trajectory. Key to our approach is…
Thermal Recovery of Multi-Limbed Robots with Electric Actuators
Steven Jens Jorgensen, James Holley, Frank Mathis +2
The problem of finding thermally minimizing configurations of a humanoid robot to recover its actuators from unsafe thermal states is addressed. A first-order, data-driven, effort-…
Social Navigation Planning Based on People's Awareness of Robots
Minkyu Kim, Jaemin Lee, Steven Jens Jorgensen +1
When mobile robots maneuver near people, they run the risk of rudely blocking their paths; but not all people behave the same around robots. People that have not noticed the robot…
Prioritized Kinematic Control of Joint-Constrained Head-Eye Robots using the Intermediate Value Approach
Steven Jens Jorgensen, Orion Campbell, Travis Llado +3
Existing gaze controllers for head-eye robots can only handle single fixation points. Here, a generic controller for head-eye robots capable of executing simultaneous and prioritiz…
