Nonprehensile Dynamic Manipulation: A Survey

Nonprehensile dynamic manipulation can be reasonably considered as the most complex manipulation task. It might be argued that such a task is still rather far from being fully solved and applied in robotics. This survey tries to collect the results reached so far by the research community about planning and control in the nonprehensile dynamic manipulation domain. A discussion about current open issues is addressed as well.
