Formation control of nonholonomic mobile robots: the virtual structure approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
PhDIn recent years, there has been a considerable growth in applications of multi-robot systems as opposed to single-robot systems. This thesis presents our proposed solutions to a formation control problem in which mobile robots are required to ...

Say what you want, I’m not listening!

open access: yesi-com, 2023
We present a conversational social robot behaviour design that draws from psychotherapy research to support individual self-reflection and wellbeing, without requiring the robot to parse or otherwise understand what the user is saying.

Curve-Localizability-SVM Active Localization Research for Mobile Robots in Outdoor Environments

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Working environment of mobile robots has gradually expanded from indoor structured scenes to outdoor scenes such as wild areas in recent years. The expansion of application scene, change of sensors and the diversity of working tasks bring greater ...

Human-to-Robot Imitation in the Wild

open access: yesRobotics: 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.

Social Integrating Robots Suggest Mitigation Strategies for Ecosystem Decay

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Deploying social robots in museum settings: A quasi-systematic review exploring purpose and acceptability

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2021
Social robots are increasingly used within public spaces, including museum settings. This quasi-systematic review identifies and synthesizes the evidence on social robots that have recently been deployed in museum settings.

Passive, Active, and Proactive Systems and Machines for the Protection and Preservation of Animals and Animal Species

open access: yesFrontiers in Animal Science, 2022
Digitalization and automation are expanding into many areas, resulting in more widespread use of partially and fully autonomous machines and robots. At the same time, environmental and other crises and disasters are on the rise, the world population is ...

Trouble and Repair in Child–Robot Interaction: A Study of Complex Interactions With a Robot Tutee in a Primary School Classroom

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2020
Today, robots are studied and expected to be used in a range of social roles within classrooms. Yet, due to a number of limitations in social robots, robot interactions should be expected to occasionally suffer from troublesome situations and breakdowns.

An Aerial–Aquatic Robot with Tunable Tilting Motors Capable of Multimode Motion

open access: yesAdvanced 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–
