“Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door,” so goes the saying, but VHS beat Betamax and the world hasn’t been the same since. In any case, you might not get rich building ...

Abstract: This work presents the design and implementation of a data-driven Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) framework for an Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) equipped with a 3-DOF robotic arm.

When we think of robots, most of us might think of machines with a humanoid appearance. Think of the cyborg from the Aliens movies or Arnold Schwarzenegger from Terminator. Or a little more friendly ...

Quadruped animals achieve agile and highly adaptive locomotion owing to the coordination between their legs and other body parts, such as the trunk, head, and tail, that is, body–limb coordination.

First install ROS kinetic "Desktop-Full" (tutorial here). You'll need to install some additional ROS packages : sudo apt-get install ros-kinetic-robot-state-publisher ...
