Humans have a remarkable way of learning, adapting and mastering new manipulation
tasks. With the current advances in Machine Learning (ML), the promise of having
robots with such capabilities seems to be on the cusp of reality. Transferring human-level
sk ...
Robotic animals are nowadays developed for various types of research, such as bio-inspired robotics, biomimetics and animal behavior studies. More specifically, in the case of collective animal behavior research, the robotic device can interact with animal ...
Learning handwriting is one of the main occupations for children in primary education. It is a complex skill that has been associated with children’s learning and development. Poor handwriting skills affect children negatively concerning their academic per ...
Agile quadrupedal locomotion in animals and robots is yet to be fully understood, quantified
or achieved. An intuitive notion of agility exists, but neither a concise definition nor a common
benchmark can be found. Further, it is unclear, what minimal leve ...
Despite enhancements in the development of robotic systems, the energy economy of today's robots lags far behind that of biological systems. This is in particular critical for untethered legged robot locomotion. To elucidate the current stage of energy eff ...
A swarm of randomly moving miniature robots is an effective solution for the exploration of unknown terrains. However, the deployment of a swarm of miniature robots poses two challenges: finding an adequate locomotion strategy for fast exploration and obst ...
This project is carried out under the partnership between LMTS and LAI to develop an autonomous micro-robot called DE-Ansect. This low power micro-robot moves thanks to dielectric elastomere actuators. For now the robot follows a black line on the ground. ...
Robotics provides useful tools for educational purposes, allowing to engage students in learning within disparate domains, from computer science and artificial intelligence – traditionally the main domains for educational robotics – to general education, h ...
Recent progress in electronics has allowed the construction of affordable mobile robots. This opens many new opportunities, in particular in the context of collective robotics. However, while several algorithms in this field require global localization, th ...
Contribution: While previous research has studied the use of educational robotics in classrooms, there is still a lack of methods to support the development and evaluation of such tools. To this end, this paper presents an evaluation framework and a corres ...
