Proceedings ArticleDOI
Improving teleoperation: reducing mental rotations and translations
TL;DR: A framework for describing the transformations required to use a particular teleoperation setup is introduced and in detail the mental transformations required in an interface consisting of one camera and display are analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identifying robot parameters using partial pose information
TL;DR: In this article, a simple radial-distance linear transducer (LVDT) is used to estimate the distance from several fixed points in the workspace to the robot's endpoint.

Haptic device with controlled traction forces
J.E. Colgate,Michael A. Peshkin +1 more
TL;DR: A haptic device includes a substrate that is subjected to lateral motion such as lateral oscillation with one or more degrees of freedom together with modulation of a friction reducing oscillation in a manner that can create a shear force on the user's finger or on an object on the device as discussed by the authors.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Multifunctional Whisker Arrays for Distance Detection, Terrain Mapping, and Object Feature Extraction
TL;DR: The potential use of whisker arrays on planetary rovers and as an investigative tool for exploring the encoding of sensory information in the nervous system of animals are discussed.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A complete algorithm for designing passive fences to orient parts
TL;DR: The algorithm is complete in the sense that it is guaranteed to find a design if one exists and to terminate with a negative report otherwise, and based on an exact breadth-first search of the design space, the algorithm is also guaranteed to finding the design requiring the fewest fences.
