Secondary action in robot motion [PDF]
Secondary action, a concept borrowed from character animation, improves the animation realism by augmenting natural, passive motion to primary action. We use dynamic simulation to induce three techniques of secondary motion for robot hardware, which exploit actuation passivity to overcome hardware constraints and change the dynamic perception of the ...

Area Coverage Optimization using Networked Mobile Robots with State Estimation
In this paper, we present a solution to the area coverage problem using a team of mobile robots with state estimation. A group of autonomous mobile robots is deployed in a two-dimensional area of interest, for example, where communication among robots is

Sensing and Navigation for Multiple Mobile Robots Based on Deep Q-Network
In this paper, a novel DRL algorithm based on a DQN is proposed for multiple mobile robots to find optimized paths. The multiple robots’ states are the inputs of the DQN. The DQN estimates the Q-value of the agents’ actions.

Combining search and action for mobile robots [PDF]
We explore the interconnection between search and action in the context of mobile robotics. The task of searching for an object and then performing some action with that object is important in many applications. Of particular interest to us is the idea of a robot assistant capable of performing worthwhile tasks around the home and office (e.g ...

The Influence of Robot Number on Robot Group Perception—A Call for Action [PDF]
Research on robot groups has often applied psychological principles underlying group processes between humans to interactions with and between robots. However, such research has failed to test empirically whether these principles indeed apply to the robot context.
