DOI: 10.1109/lra.2022.3187833
Abstract: We investigate pneumatic non-prehensile manipulation (i.e., blowing) as a means of efficiently moving scattered objects into a target receptacle. Due to the chaotic nature of aerodynamic forces, a blowing controller must i) continually adapt to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tro.2021.3130433
Abstract: This paper presents a software platform taylored for prehensile manipulation planning named Humanoid Path Planner. The platform implements an original way of modelling manipulation planning through a constraint graph that represents the numerical constraints that… read more here.
