By focusing on technologies of virtual reality in conjunction with theories of “place” and “presence,” this chapter outlines the importance of new approaches to the museological experience and exploration of ancient cities and cultural heritage sites. Expl ...
Teleoperators rely on both visual and haptic feedback to perform drone teleoperation tasks, such as obstacle avoidance. Haptic feedback becomes essential when visual feedback is compromised, either due to visual occlusions or poor depth perception. However ...
Wall of Memories is part of the Cosmos Archeology exhibition, to be held in Spring 2022 at EPFL Pavilions, Lausanne. The installation aims at exploring the Claude Nicollier Video Archives, a collection of audiovisual content about the life and career of fa ...
The present disclosure relates to a device including electrostatic brakes providing haptic kinaesthetic feedback to a user in e.g. assistive, rehabilitation or virtual reality scenarios, as well as tele-manipulation. ...
Stiffness variation and real-time position feedback are critical for any robotic system but most importantly for active and wearable devices to interact with the user and environment. Currently, for compact sizes, there is a lack of solutions bringing high ...
Many daily tasks involve the collaboration of both hands. Humans dexterously adjust hand poses and modulate the forces exerted by fingers in response to task demands. Hand pose selection has been intensively studied in unimanual tasks, but little work has ...
engineering has remained very traditional. The advances made in the fields of representation and visualisation, and in particular the progress made in virtual reality, lead us to wonder what added value this technology can bring to the world of constructio ...
Preterm birth is one of the main causes for neurodevelopmental problems, and has been associated with a wide range of impairments in cognitive functions including executive functions and memory. One of the factors contributing to these adverse outcomes is ...
Collaborative robots (cobots) have been increasingly used in the industry in recent years. The cobots are often 7-axis kinematically redundant manipulators. Exploiting these redundancies in industrial tasks is still a challenge as the change in the robot j ...
Aims. We introduce a novel approach to reconstructing dark matter mass maps from weak gravitational lensing measurements. The cornerstone of the proposed method lies in a new modelling of the matter density field in the Universe as a mixture of two compone ...
