Direct transfer of human motion trajectories to humanoid robots does not result in dynamically stable robot movements due to the differences in human and humanoid robot kinematics and dynamics. We developed a system that converts human movements captured b ...
We address the recognition of people’s visual focus of attention (VFOA), the discrete version of gaze that indicates who is looking at whom or what. As a good indicator of addressee-hood (who speaks to whom, and in particular is a person speaking to the ro ...
Gait and balance training is an essential ingredient for locomotor rehabilitation of patients with neurological impairments. Robotic overhead support systems may help these patients train, for example by relieving them of part of their body weight. However ...
Rigid registration of two geometric data sets is essential in many applications, including robot navigation, surface reconstruction, and shape matching. Most commonly, variants of the Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm are employed for this task. Thes ...
This paper presents dynamic characterization and control of an upper-limb rehabilitation machine aimed at improving robot performance in the interaction with the patient. An integrated approach between mechanics and control is the key issue of the paper fo ...
We demonstrate the demolding of topologically complex three-dimensional elastomeric microstructures from a femtosecond laser micromachined glass substrate. Demolding success rates of > 90% are achieved, which are qualitatively supported by a simple mechani ...
A major challenge in studying social behaviour stems from the need to disentangle the behaviour of each individual from the resulting collective. One way to overcome this problem is to construct a model of the behaviour of an individual, and observe whethe ...
We introduce a new multimodal interaction dataset with extensive annotations in a conversational Human-Robot-Interaction (HRI) scenario. It has been recorded and annotated to benchmark many relevant perceptual tasks, towards enabling a robot to converse wi ...
A frequent method for taking into account the partially observable nature of an environment in which robots interact lies in formulating the problem domain as a Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP). By having humans demonstrate how to act i ...
This paper presents an experiment in which the iCub humanoid robot learns to recognize faces through proprioceptive information. We take inspiration in the way blind people recognize people's faces, i.e. through tactile exploration of the person's face. Th ...
