Dynamic object goal pushing with mobile manipulators through model-free constrained reinforcement learning

I Dadiotis, M Mittal, N Tsagarakis, M Hutter - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2025 - arxiv.org
Non-prehensile pushing to move and reorient objects to a goal is a versatile loco-
manipulation skill. In the real world, the object's physical properties and friction with the floor …

Robust Nonprehensile Object Transportation with Uncertain Inertial Parameters

A Heins, AP Schoellig - arxiv preprint arxiv:2411.07079, 2024 - arxiv.org
We consider the nonprehensile object transportation task known as the waiter's problem-in
which a robot must move an object balanced on a tray from one location to another-when …

Adaptive Distance Functions via Kelvin Transformation

RIC Muchacho, FT Pokorny - arxiv preprint arxiv:2406.03200, 2024 - arxiv.org
The term safety in robotics is often understood as a synonym for avoidance. Although this
perspective has led to progress in path planning and reactive control, a generalization of this …
