This paper describes the state-of-the art in the area of underwater robot manipulator
systems. A brief introduction is given on the use of manipulators in various offshore …

In this paper, dynamical systems made up of locally coupled nonlinear units are used to
control the locomotion of bio-inspired robots and, in particular, a simulation of an insect-like …

The formulation of the dynamic coupling between a manipulator and an underwater vehicle
is presented. Results from a simulation of a particular manipulator-vehicle configuration …

We present DAVE Aquatic Virtual Environment (DAVE) 1, an open source simulation stack
for underwater robots, sensors, and environments. Conventional robotics simulators are not …

In order to achieve powered autonomous running robots it is essential to develop efficient
actuator systems, especially for generating the radial thrust in the legs. In addition, the …

This book deals with locomotion control of biologically inspired robots realized through an
analog circuital paradigm as cellular nonlinear networks. It presents a general methodology …

Autonomous control of a robotic manipulator mounted on a submersible autonomous
underwater vehicle (AUV) is simulated with various strategies employing combinations of …

Robotersteuerungen erfordern sehr lange Entwicklungszeiten und hohe
