Purpose The grasping task of robots in dense cluttered scenes from a single-view has not been solved perfectly, and there is still a problem of low grasping success rate. This study aims to propose an end-to-end grasp generation method to solve this problem. Design/methodology/approach A new...

Purpose This paper aims to propose a method to solve the problem of localization and mapping of a two-wheeled inverted pendulum (TWIP) robot on the ground using the Stereo–inertial measurement unit (IMU) system. This method reparametrizes the pose according to the motion characteristics of...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose a novel jump control method based on Two Mass Spring Damp Inverted Pendulum (TMS-DIP) model, which makes the third generation of hydraulic driven wheel-legged robot prototype (WLR-3P) achieve stable jumping. Design/methodology/approach First,...

Purpose This paper aims to present a pipeline to progressively deal with the online external parameter calibration and estimator initialization of the Stereo-inertial measurement unit (IMU) system, which does not require any prior information and is suitable for system initialization in a...
