Representation recovers information [PDF]

, 2009
Early agreement within cognitive science on the topic of representation has now given way to a combination of positions. Some question the significance of representation in cognition.

CONCERT: A Modular Reconfigurable Robot for Construction

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1332-1362, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents CONCERT, a fully reconfigurable modular collaborative robot (cobot) for multiple on‐site operations in a construction site. CONCERT has been designed to support human activities in construction sites by leveraging two main characteristics: high‐power density motors and modularity. In this way, the robot is able to perform a

Modeling the power consumption of a Wifibot and studying the role of communication cost in operation time [PDF]

, 2015
Mobile robots are becoming part of our every day living at home, work or entertainment. Due to their limited power capabilities, the development of new energy consumption models can lead to energy conservation and energy efficient designs. In this paper,

A kyno-dynamic metric to plan stable paths over uneven terrain [PDF]

, 2010
A generic methodology to plan increasingly stable paths for mobile platforms travelling over uneven terrain is proposed in this paper. This is accomplished by extending the Fast Marching level-set method of propagating interfaces in 3D lattices with an ...

Real‐Time Terrain Traversability Analysis and Mapping for Autonomous Robotics in Dynamic Environments: Fusing Appearance‐ and Geometry‐Based Approaches

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1719-1738, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents advanced methodologies for real‐time terrain analysis and mapping in autonomous robotic systems. The focus is on appearance‐based terrain traversability analysis and geometric‐based terrain traceability analysis. In the appearance‐based approach, an enhanced segmentation model using pixel‐based augmentation and 13 unique ...

A statistical approach for uncertain stability analysis of mobile robots [PDF]

, 2013
Stability prediction is an important concern for mobile robots operating in rough environments. Having the capacity to predict areas of instability means pro-actively being able to plan safer traversable paths.

Inertia-based ICR kinematic model for tracked skid-steer robots

2017 IEEE International Symposium on Safety, Security and Rescue Robotics (SSRR), 2017
Kinematic models for skid-steer vehicles based on the locations of instantaneous centers of rotation (ICRs) of treads have been useful for motion control and dead reckoning. These models have typically assumed constant track ICRs because actual ICRs remain in bounded regions.

SensHB.Q: A Cost‐Effective Force‐Sensitive Handlebar to Control Omnidirectional Robots and Wheelchairs

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1471-1483, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper details the design and development of SensHB.Q, a force‐sensitive handlebar intended for caregivers driving electric‐powered wheelchairs, particularly those with omnidirectional mobility. The same interface can also be used in the future to operate other omnidirectional motorized systems, such as mobile robots, hospital beds, and ...

Curvature-Constrained Motion Planning Method for Differential-Drive Mobile Robot Platforms

Applied Sciences
Compact heavy-duty skid-steer robots are increasingly used for city logistics and intralogistics tasks where high payload capacity and stability are required. However, their limited maneuverability and non-negligible turning radius challenge conventional
