Space-mounted robotics is becoming increasingly mainstream for many space missions.
The aim of this article is threefold: first, to give a broad and quick overview of the importance …

The problem of powered descent guidance and control for autonomous precision landing for
next-generation planetary missions is addressed. The precision landing algorithm aims to …

This paper exploits screw theory expressed via unit dual quaternion representation and its
algebra to formulate both the forward (position+ velocity) kinematics and pose control of an n …

This paper focuses on finding a dual quaternion solution to attitude and position control for
multiple rigid body coordination. Representing rigid bodies in 3-D space by unit dual …

This paper proposes an adaptive sliding mode control law based on dual quaternions for six-
degree-of-freedom proximity operations between a chaser and a target spacecraft. Dual …

A universal identification method for position independent geometric errors (PIGEs) of dual
rotary axes of five-axis machine tools with arbitrary rotary axis position structures is …
