Social Integrating Robots Suggest Mitigation Strategies for Ecosystem Decay
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 We develop here a novel hypothesis that may generate a general research framework of how autonomous robots may act as a future contingency to counteract the ongoing ecological mass extinction process.

Learning robust perceptive locomotion for quadrupedal robots in the wild [PDF]
Science Robotics, 2022 Legged robots that can operate autonomously in remote and hazardous environments will greatly increase opportunities for exploration into underexplored areas. Exteroceptive perception is crucial for fast and energy-efficient locomotion: Perceiving the terrain before making contact with it enables planning and adaptation of the gait ahead of time to ...

Human-to-Robot Imitation in the Wild
Robotics: Science and Systems XVIII, 2022 We approach the problem of learning by watching humans in the wild. While traditional approaches in Imitation and Reinforcement Learning are promising for learning in the real world, they are either sample inefficient or are constrained to lab settings. Meanwhile, there has been a lot of success in processing passive, unstructured human data.

Human-Robot Interaction in Groups: Methodological and Research Practices
Multimodal Technologies and Interaction, 2021 Understanding the behavioral dynamics that underline human-robot interactions in groups remains one of the core challenges in social robotics research. However, despite a growing interest in this topic, there is still a lack of established and validated ...

An Aerial–Aquatic Robot with Tunable Tilting Motors Capable of Multimode Motion
Advanced Intelligent Systems, 2023 Aerial–aquatic robots have promising applications due to their ability to operate in air and water with different motion modes. However, challenges such as water/air transition and multimedia movement still limit their development. Inspired by the aerial–

Child-robot interaction in the wild
Proceedings of the 13th international conference on multimodal interfaces, 2011 We present insights gleaned from a series of child-robot interaction experiments carried out in a hospital paediatric department. Our aim here is to share good practice in experimental design and lessons learned about the implementation of systems for social HRI with child users towards application in "the wild", rather than in tightly controlled and ...
