Children Teach Handwriting to a Social Robot with Different Learning Competencies

Pierre Dillenbourg, Shruti Chandra, Ana Paiva

As robots are entering into educational fields to enhance children's learning, it becomes relevant to explore different methods of learning in the area of child-robot interaction. In this article, we present an autonomous educational system incorporating a ...

A dynamical system approach for detection and reaction to human guidance in physical human-robot interaction

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi

A seamless interaction requires two robotic behaviors: the leader role where the robot rejects the external perturbations and focuses on the autonomous execution of the task, and the follower role where the robot ignores the task and complies with human in ...

Piezoelectric Grippers for Mobile Micromanipulation

Tristan Abondance, Kaushik Jayaram

The ability to efficiently and precisely manipulate objects in inaccessible environments is becoming an essential requirement for many applications of mobile robots, particularly at small sizes. Here, we propose and implement a mobile micromanipulation sol ...

Benchmark for Human-to-Robot Handovers of Unseen Containers with Unknown Filling

Pascal Frossard, Aude Billard, Andrea Cavallaro, Apostolos Modas, Konstantinos Chatzilygeroudis, Nuno Ricardo Ferreira Duarte

The real-time estimation through vision of the physical properties of objects manipulated by humans is important to inform the control of robots for performing accurate and safe grasps of objects handed over by humans. However, estimating the 3D pose and d ...

A field-tested robotic harvesting system for iceberg lettuce

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes

Agriculture provides an unique opportunity for the development of robotic systems; robots must be developed which can operate in harsh conditions and in highly uncertain and unknown environments. One particular challenge is performing manipulation for auto ...

Particle Source Localization with a Low-Cost Robotic Sensor System: Algorithmic Design and Performance Evaluation

Alcherio Martinoli, Ali Marjovi, Xinxing Chen, Jian Huang

In this paper we tackle the problem of finding the source of particulate matter with a mobile robot equipped with a low-cost multi-channel optical particle counting sensor. The proposed method is based on the Infotaxis odor source localization algorithm an ...

Amphibious and Sprawling Locomotion: From Biology to Robotics and Back

Auke Ijspeert

A milestone in vertebrate evolution, the transition from water to land, owes its success to the development of a sprawling body plan that enabled an amphibious lifestyle. The body, originally adapted for swimming, evolved to benefit from limbs that enhance ...

Thought consciousness and source monitoring depend on robotically-controlled sensorimotor conflicts and illusory states

Olaf Blanke, Hannes Bleuler, Andrea Serino, Fosco Bernasconi, Herberto Dhanis Pedro De Barros Camacho, Roy Salomon, Giulio Rognini, Masayuki Hara, Marco Solcà, Giedre Stripeikyte, Pierre Progin, Polona Pozeg

Thought insertion (TI) is characterized by the experience that certain thoughts, occurring in one’s mind, are not one’s own, but the thoughts of somebody else and suggestive of a psychotic disorder. We report a robotics-based method able to investigate the ...
