Immersive human-robot interaction [PDF]
Networked robotic applications enable robots to operate in distant, hazardous, or otherwise inaccessible environments, such as search and rescue, surveillance, and exploration applications. The most difficult challenge which persists for such systems is that of supporting effective human-robot interaction, as this usually demands managing dynamic views,

Modeling dynamic behavior of dielectric elastomer muscle for robotic applications
Recently, as a strong candidate for artificial muscle, dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) have been given the spotlight due to their attractive benefits from fast, large, and reversible electrically-controllable actuation in ultra-lightweight ...

"Sticky Hands": learning and generalization for cooperative physical interactions with a humanoid robot [PDF]
"Sticky Hands" is a physical game for two people involving gentle contact with the hands. The aim is to develop relaxed and elegant motion together, achieve physical sensitivity-improving reactions, and experience an interaction at an intimate yet ...

Semiotics and Human-Robot Interaction [PDF]
This paper describes a robot control architecture supported on a human-robot interaction model obtained directly from semiotics concepts. The architecture is composed by a set of objects defined after a well known model of semiotic signs. These objects form an algebraic system suitable to develop formal models of human-robot interactions.

Awareness in human-robot interactions [PDF]
This paper provides a set of definitions that form a framework for describing the types of awareness that humans have of robot activities and the knowledge that robots have of the commands given them by humans. As a case study, we applied this human-robot interaction (HRI) awareness framework to our analysis of the HRI approaches used at an urban ...

Toward Competent Robot Apprentices: Enabling Proactive Troubleshooting in Collaborative Robots
For robots to become effective apprentices and collaborators, they must exhibit some level of autonomy, for example, recognizing failures and identifying ways to address them with the aid of their human teammates.
