Long-term non-prehensile planar manipulation is a challenging task for robot planning and feedback control. It is characterized by underactuation, hybrid control, and contact uncertainty. One main difficulty is to determine both the continuous and discrete contact configurations, e.g., contact points and modes, which requires joint logical and geometrical reasoning. To tackle this issue, we propos...
