Are Functional Measures Sufficient to Capture Acceptance? A Qualitative Study on Lower Limb Exoskeleton Use for Older People

Lower limb exoskeletons (LLE) are robotic devices developed to assist walk. In the field of healthcare, this technology has been available for almost a decade, yet it still faces important acceptance issues. While LLE were first developed for patients with ...

Wearable and Self-Aware Machine Learning System for Online Cognitive Workload Monitoring and Drone Control

Fabio Isidoro Tiberio Dell'Agnola

The use of robots in search and rescue is gaining particular interest, but singular skills are required to ensure efficient deployments in real missions. To face this problem, there is a need to develop more intuitive control interfaces. Moreover, to ensur ...

Physical Safety in Collisions Between Robots and Pedestrians

Aude Billard, Diego Felipe Paez Granados, David Julian Gonon, Pericle Salvini

The widespread deployment of mobile service robots in public environments and the growing use of autonomy as control modality will increase the exposure to hazards for people simply sharing the robot floor. The need to ensure safety becomes an ethical and ...

Can Tangible Robots Support Children in Learning Handwriting?

Pierre Dillenbourg, Thibault Lucien Christian Asselborn, Barbara Bruno, Ayberk Özgür

A large body of research suggests that robots could indeed be useful for supporting children in learning handwriting. However, few studies have investigated the role and use of tangible robots in teaching handwriting to children with attention and/or visuo ...

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 ...

Memory of Motion for Warm-Starting Trajectory Optimization

Sylvain Calinon, Emmanuel Pignat, Antonio Paolillo, Teguh Santoso Lembono

Trajectory optimization for motion planning requires good initial guesses to obtain good performance. In our proposed approach, we build a memory of motion based on a database of robot paths to provide good initial guesses. The memory of motion relies on f ...

Measurement Scheduling for Cooperative Localization in Resource-Constrained Conditions

Qi Yan, Li Jiang

This letter studies the measurement scheduling problem for a group of

N

mobile robots moving on a flat surface that are preforming cooperative localization (CL). We consider a scenario in which due to the limited on-board resources such as battery life a ...

Relax and Recover: Guaranteed Range-Only Continuous Localization

Adam James Scholefield, Frederike Dümbgen, Michalina Wanda Pacholska

Range-only localization has applications as diverse as underwater navigation, drone tracking and indoor localization. While the theoretical foundations of lateration-range-only localization for static points-are well understood, there is a lack of understa ...
