A mechanical teleoperated device comprising: a slave unit (10) an end-effector (40) a master unit (20) and a handle (30). Mechanical transmission means are arranged to kinematically connect the slave unit (10) with the master unit (20) such that the moveme ...
This paper presents a biologically inspired approach to multimodal integration and decision-making in the context of human-robot interactions. More specifically, we address the principle of ideomotor compatibility by which observing the movements of others ...
For many real-life applications such as monitoring, mapping, search-and-rescue or ad-hoc communication networks, fleets of flying robots are expected to out-perform existing solutions. Robots can join forces to cover larger areas in less time, act as effic ...
This paper introduces a new methodology to design modular industrial ultra-high precision robots; it aims at significantly reducing both the complexity of their design and their development time. This modular concept can be considered as a robotic Lego®, w ...
In the high-precision industry, most operations require the use of robots able to accomplish highly accurate and repeatable motions. In order to meet the desired level of absolute accuracy, one has to limit or even suppress the effects of different sources ...
Over the past decades, a large number of robotic platforms have been developed which provide rehabilitative treatments aimed at recovering walking abilities in post-stroke patients. Unfortunately, they do not significantly influence patients' performance a ...

The present paper tried to provide a review of the different works investigating the attentional cost of postural control. Within the context of a dual-task, the attentional demand associated with postural control depends on various factors such as (1) the ...
Miniaturisation will be the key challenge for the next decade in numerous industrial fields, such as microelectronics, optics and biomedical engineering. Although most of their products already achieve footprints of some square millimeters, the trend towar ...
We present a system for robust robot skill acquisition from kinesthetic demonstrations. This system allows a robot to learn a simple goal-directed gesture, and correctly reproduce it despite changes in the initial conditions, and perturbations in the envir ...
This thesis presents possible computational mechanisms by which a humanoid robot can develop a coherent representation of the space within its reach (its peripersonal space), and use it to control its movements. Those mechanisms are inspired by current the ...
