On a Jansen leg with multiple gait patterns for reconfigurable walking platforms

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2015
Legged robots are able to move across irregular terrains and those based on 1-degree-of-freedom planar linkages can be energy efficient, but are often constrained by a limited range of gaits which can limit their locomotion capabilities considerably ...

Light Guiding by Effective Gauge Field for Photons

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2014
We propose a waveguiding mechanism based on the effective gauge potential for photons. The waveguide geometry consists of core and cladding regions with the same underlying dispersion relation, but subject to different gauge potentials. This geometry can

Mapping the SISO module of the Turbo decoder to a FPFA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
In the CHAMELEON project a reconfigurable systems-architecture, the Field Programmable Function Array (FPFA) is introduced. FPFAs are reminiscent to FPGAs, but have a matrix of ALUs and lookup tables instead of Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs).

A Multi-Sensory Autonomous Docking Approach for a Self-Reconfigurable Robot without Mechanical Guidance

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2014
The most important feature of a Self-Reconfigurable Robot (SRR) is that it is reconfigurable and self-repairing. At the centre of these capabilities is autonomous docking. One difficulty for docking is the alignment between two robots. Current strategies
