Matthew T. Mason - Work

Work

Mason's work is organized around five topics:

  • Mechanics of manipulation: modeling the physics of manipulation and how these models translates into implementation in robots.
  • Robotic origami: the problem of origami as a challenging manipulation task for robots.
  • Manipulation without hands: manipulation with a set of resources instead of just a manipulation subsystem (an arm).
  • Locomotion without legs: exploiting all available resources for locomotion, similar to manipulation without hands
  • Shortest paths for mobile robots: finding time optimal paths for robot motion.

    There are hardly half a dozen writers in England today who have not sold out to the enemy. Even when their good work has been a success, Mammon grips them and whispers: “More money for more work.”
