Visiting Cultural Heritage with a Tour Guide Robot: A User Evaluation Study in-the-Wild

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we present a user evaluation study on location at the Royal Alcázar in Seville, Spain, with the fully autonomous tour guide robot FROG. In this robot, technological innovations in navigation and vision were integrated with state-of-the-art design for robot behavior in order to provide interactive tours and adaptive content to visitors.

A multi-sensor system for robotics proximity operations [PDF]

open access: yes
Robots without sensors can perform only simple repetitive tasks and cannot cope with unplanned events. A multi-sensor system is needed for a robot to locate a target, move into its neighborhood and perform operations in contact with the object.

Route learning and reproduction in a tour-guide robot

Robotics and Autonomous Systems, 2015
Traditionally, route information is introduced in tour-guide robots by experts in robotics. In the tour-guide robot that we are developing, we allow the robot to learn new routes while following an instructor. In this paper we describe the route recording process that takes place while following a human, as well as, how those routes are later ...

Gesture-based interaction with voice feedback for a tour-guide robot

Journal of Visual Communication and Image Representation, 2014
Any service robot should possess some kind of human-robot interaction to communicate with users. In this paper we present a tour-guide robot able to recognize hand gestures and provide voice feedback. A user can communicate with the robot using hand movements, but also through virtual buttons which are shown in a augmented reality environment in the ...

Tour-guide robot

2016 International Conference on Industrial Informatics and Computer Systems (CIICS), 2016
Museums, castles, and aquariums are some of the many tourist sites visited once exploring a new place. However, visiting a tourist site without the aid of a tourist guide; some would feel lost and confused. In this work, we introduce the implementation of a tour-guide robot using Kinect technology to ease the process of tourist guides.
