(04/04/2014)
The research paper describes the development of a user friendly 3D virtual world. For the research, we modeled building number 3 of the Technological University of Panama, Victor Levi Sasso Campus.
For the virtual world ...
Detecting Zero-Moment Point in Legged Robot
(07/01/2014)
The study of Zero-moment point (ZMP) in ROBOCLIMBER (quadruped walking and climbing robot) was realized and calculated in real time during statically postural and dynamically balanced gait. Force sensor with strain gages ...
Lane Surface Identification Based on Reflectance using Laser Range Finder
(12/13/2014)
In striving to achieve autonomous navigation the problem of guidance is a major difficulty faced by fully autonomous vehicle. In this paper, the authors focus on unconventional methods of identifying lane markings on a ...
