Texture-based studies and designs have been in focus recently. Whisker-based
multidimensional surface texture data is missing in the literature. This data is critical for …

Traditional problems in computational geometry involve aspects that are both discrete and
continuous. One such example is nearest-neighbor searching, where the input is discrete …

Rodents and pinnipeds use their tactile sense as the primary modes for localization and
foraging. In this paper, we have designed, fabricated, and analyzed a rodent whisker …

In this thesis, a practical method for exploring the navigation of mobile robots based on
tactile feedback is introduced. Initially, an autonomous control algorithm was created for a …
