Human-Robot Swarm Interaction: An Explorative Path to Foster Complex Systems Understanding

Hala Khodr

Order, regularities, and patterns are ubiquitous around us. A flock of birds maneuvering in the sky, the self-organization of social insects, a global pandemic or a traffic jam are examples of complex systems where the macroscopic patterns arise from the m ...

Challenges and approaches in bridging the biomimicry gap in biohybrid systems of fish and robots

Vaios Papaspyros

As the field of ethology advances, especially over the past two decades, the role of animal-robot interaction tools has increasingly become essential. This importance arises from the need for controlled, repetitive, repeatable, and long-duration experiment ...

Bio-inspired adaptive impedance based controller for human-robot interaction and method

Mohamed Bouri, Amalric Louis Ortlieb, Benoît Walter Denkinger, Peter Lichard, Tommaso Tracchia

The method for controlling a single- or multi- powered robotic system, such as an exoskeleton, a prosthesis or a collaborative robot, that is physically interacting with a user, said system comprising at least one actuated joint; wherein the robot joint(s) ...

Robot Agreeableness and User Engagement in Verbal Human-Robot Interaction

Barbara Bruno

It is a well-established fact in the field of Human-Robot Interaction that the personality a social robot is endowed with (i.e., the one it expresses by its gestures and words) plays a key role towards the engagement experienced by any person interacting w ...

A computer science and robotics integration model for primary school: evaluation of a large-scale in-service K-4 teacher-training program

Francesco Mondada, Frédérique Michèle Chessel-Lazzarotto, Jean-Philippe Pellet, Barbara Bruno, Laila Abdelsalam El-Hamamsy

Integrating computer science (CS) into school curricula has become a worldwide preoccupation. Therefore, we present a CS and Robotics integration model and its validation through a large-scale pilot study in the administrative region of the Canton Vaud in ...

Shoaling with Fish: Using Miniature Robotic Agents to Close the Interaction Loop with Groups of Zebrafish Danio rerio

Francesco Mondada, Frank Bonnet

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 ...
