Coordination and control of a team of mobile robots
No full textIn this paper, the coordinate motion of a team of mobile robots is dealt with. The problem is first
stated in a general way and then faced by means of a team-control theory approach. As a result we have a
method which can span from complete to null coordination as well as from classical trajectory planning
techniques to the so-called 'best first decision', and generates feedback control laws.
Moreover, considering a particular instance of the method, a solution is proposed which generalizes the
classical approaches based on conservative force fields, and can be implemented in real-time
A triple pendulum robotic model and a set of simple parametric functions for the analysis of the golf swing
No full textThe paper deals with the analysis the golf swing using a triple pendulum model and a simple class of feasible trajectories for the joints. Many tasks in sport are not specified in term of equivalent joint trajectories but mainly with boundary conditions of joint position and velocity (e.g. weight lifting, punching, swinging in golf). In such tasks even if the ’optimal’ trajectory is not a-priori known, some properties can be however inferred and therefore translated in the shape of the representing functions. For the golf swing, the influence of the joints’ trajectory as well as that of the initial posture is analyzed with respect to the applied torques and impact velocity
