Robust Adaptive Time-Varying Control Barrier Function with Application to Robotic Surface Treatment

Yitaek Kim, Christoffer Sloth

Set invariance techniques such as control barrier functions (CBFs) can be used to enforce time-varying constraints such as keeping a safe distance from dynamic objects. However, ex…

Trajectory Optimization for In-Hand Manipulation with Tactile Force Control

Haegu Lee, Yitaek Kim, Victor Melbye Staven +1

The strength of the human hand lies in its ability to manipulate small objects precisely and robustly. In contrast, simple robotic grippers have low dexterity and fail to handle sm…
