Tactile Correction and Multiple Training Data Sources for Robot Motion Control

Aude Billard, Eric Sauser, Brenna Dee Argall

This work considers our approach to robot motion control learning from the standpoint of multiple data sources. Our paradigm derives data from human teachers providing task demonstrations and tactile corrections for policy refinement and reuse. We contribu ...

Multi-Robot Exploration and Fire Searching

Ali Marjovi

Exploration of an unknown environment is a fundamental concern in mobile robotics. This paper presents an approach for cooperative multi-robot exploration, fire searching and mapping in an unknown environment. The proposed approach aims to minimize the ove ...

Two-arm haptic force-feedbacked aid for the shoulder and elbow telerehabilitation

Daniel Thalmann, Patrick Salamin, Frédéric Vexo

In this paper, we present a telerehabilitation system aiming to help the physiotherapists for the shoulder and elbow treatment. It is based on a two-arm haptic force feedback to avoid excessive efforts and discomfort with the spinal column. This system, re ...

The Cost of Reality: Effects of Real-World Factors on Multi-Robot Search

Alcherio Martinoli, James Pugh

Designing algorithms for multi-robot systems can be a complex and difficult process: the cost of such systems can be very high, collecting experimental data can be time consuming, and individual robots may malfunction, invalidating experiments. These const ...

Automatic Self-Calibration of a Vision System during Robot Motion

Roland Siegwart, Davide Scaramuzza

This paper presents a new technique to estimate the extrinsic parameters of a robot-vision sensor system. More in general, this technique can be adopted to calibrate any robot bearing sensor. It is based on the Extended Kalman Filter. It is very simple and ...

Passive compliance for an (RC) servo-controlled bouncing robot

A novel and low-cost passively compliant mechanism is described that can be used with RC servos to actuate legged robots in tasks involving high dynamic loads such as bouncing. Compliance is achieved by combining visco-elastic material and metal parts. Joi ...

The “Caddie Paradigm”: a free-Locomotion Interface for Teleoperation

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo

This paper presents the “caddie paradigm” a new interface for teleoperation of mobile robots. We present a prototype based on the use of a treadmill as a free-locomotion interface. The “caddie paradigm” allows for controlling a real robot by “pushing” its ...

SLAM with Corner Features Based on a Relative Map

Roland Siegwart, Nicola Tomatis

This paper presents a solution to the Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) problem in the stochastic map framework for a mobile robot navigating in an indoor environment. The approach is based on the concept of the relative map. The idea consists i ...

Nouveaux concepts de locomotion pour véhicules tout-terrain robotisés

Michel Lauria

Robotic ground vehicles are mechanisms that use gravity and contact forces with the ground to perform motion. They can either be wheeled, tracked or legged. In this thesis we will focus on n-wheeled vehicles able to perform ground following motion with all ...
