Continual developments in robotic technology have enabled the use of robots in everyday applications in domestic, office and public spaces. Although single robot problems have been the main focus of social robotics research, applications of robots in socia ...
A robot introduced into an animal group, accepted by the animals as conspecifics, and capable of interacting with them is an ecient tool for ethological research, particularly in studies of collective and social behaviour. In this paper, we present the imp ...
How do I automate this task? This is a crucial question for production engineers. In classical industrial automation (think of a car factory) robots perform a small set of tasks for long periods of time. They were selected because their kinematic structure ...

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 ...
This paper shows and evaluates a novel approach to integrate a non-invasive Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) with the Robot Operating System (ROS) to mentally drive a telepresence robot. Controlling a mobile device by using human brain signals might improve ...
The Robots for Learning workshop series aims at advancing the research topics related to the use of social robots in educational contexts. The full-day workshop follows on previous events in Human-Robot Interaction conferences focusing on efforts to design ...
The goal of this special issue is to document and highlight recent progress in robot learning for human–robot collaboration (HRC), covering a diversity of articles that reflect the state-of-the-art in the field. Following an open call for papers, we receiv ...
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. ...
Biomimetic robots are promising tools in animal behavioural studies. If they are socially integrated in a group of animals, they can produce calibrated social stimuli to test the animal responses. However, the design of such social robots is challenging as ...
