[R] unique with tolerance

Dear R Users and Developers,
I am trying to do the equivalent of
v <- c(1,2,3,3,2,1,)
vu <- unique(v)
for a vector such as
v2 <- c(1.02, 2.03, 1.00, 3.04, 3.06)
vut <- ...
As indicated in the subject, we need approximately unique values with a defined
tolerance, i.e. for the v2 vector the resulting vut vector using a tolerance of
.1 should return e.g.
[1] 1.02 2.03 3.06
Also, mean/min values instead of max could be returned.
My actual question: Is there a convenience function or other mechanism already
implemented that could do something similar?
Thanks in advance,
Michael
