Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have a wide variety of applications in environment monitoring (such as air pollution and fire detection), industrial operations (such as machine surveillance), and precision agriculture. It is an arduous task to manage a lar ...
The interaction of ions with interfaces influences numerous processes in chemistry, physics, and biology, while different ion species behave differently at hydrophobic or hydrophilic interfaces. Despite its importance, ion specificity and its relation to s ...
Vision-based hand pose estimation is important in human-computer interaction. While many recent works focus on full degree-of-freedom hand pose estimation, robust estimation of global hand pose remains a challenging problem. This paper presents a novel alg ...
We demonstrate a system to control robots in the users proximity with pointing gestures-a natural device that people use all the time to communicate with each other. Our setup consists of a miniature quadrotor Crazyflie 2.0, a wearable inertial measurement ...
This research was motivated by a desire to help office workers change their sedentary behavior because a prolonged sedentary posture increases the risks of developing musculoskeletal injuries and chronic diseases, thus threatening their physical and psycho ...
Modular robots (MRs) consist of similar modules that can be configured into different shapes. MRs introduce a number of benefits over conventional robots specifically designed for a task. Self-reconfigurable modular robots (SRMRs) are a sub-category of MRs ...
During the past few years, probabilistic approaches to imitation learning have earned a relevant place in the robotics literature. One of their most prominent features is that, in addition to extracting a mean trajectory from task demonstrations, they prov ...
This article introduces the field of brain-computer interfaces (BCI), which allows the control of devices without the generation of any active motor output but directly from the decoding of the user's brain signals. Here we review the current state of the ...
Cellulo, as tabletop tangible robots, are a great tool for interactive learning and upper limb rehabilita-tion. For the moment, the main way of interaction is to take them in hand and move them in the plane.Thus, due to the laws of physics, the different g ...
Recent advances in the Brain-Machine Interface (BMI) and in the robotic fields allowed researchers to design a new generation of brain-actuated neuroprostheses to control a variety of assistive devices-ranging from powered wheelchairs to telepresence robot ...
