Tales from a Robotic World. How Intelligent Machines Will Shape Our Future

Dario Floreano, Nicola Nosengo

Stories from the future of intelligent machines—from rescue drones to robot spouses—and accounts of cutting-edge research that could make it all possible. Tech prognosticators promised us robots—autonomous humanoids that could carry out any number of tasks ...

Scalable Fabrication and Actuation of a Human Inspired Hand Through 3D Printed Flexures and Combinatorial Actuation

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes, Kai Christian Junge, Carlo Bosio

The fabrication and control of robot hands with biologically inspired structure remains challenging due to its cost and complexity. In this paper we explore how widely available FDM printers can be used to fabricate complex hand structures by leveraging co ...

The role of feedback and guidance as intervention methods to foster computational thinking in educational robotics learning activities for primary school

Francesco Mondada, Jean-Philippe Pellet, Evgeniia Bonnet, Laila Abdelsalam El-Hamamsy, Christian Giang, Vaios Papaspyros, Morgane Solène Denise Chevalier, Bernard Baumberger

Computational thinking (CT) is considered an emerging competence domain linked to 21st-century competences, and educational robotics (ER) is increasingly recognised as a tool to develop CT competences. This is why researchers recommend developing intervent ...

Powerful 2D Soft Morphing Actuator Propels Giant Manta Ray Robot

Miao Li, Yi Sun

Soft actuator is the main technology that drives the development of soft robotics as it defines the capabilities of soft machines. One of the key challenges in soft actuator research is to simultaneously produce complex morphing (e.g., surface morphing) an ...

Advancing coordination control of multi-limb robotic tasks: application to bimanual dynamic manipulation and bipedal reactive locomotion

Michael Bosongo Bombile

Bi-manual picking up of objects to toss them on a conveyor belt are dynamic manipulation activities generated daily in the industry. Such repetitive and physically demanding tasks are still done largely by humans for lack of similarly fast, precise, and ro ...

A New Methodological Approach to Analyze Human Roles in Human-Robot Interaction Scenarios

Auke Ijspeert

The influence of robotics in the job market has socio-economic consequences and the inevitable loss of job positions, but in the Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) scenarios, where humans and robots work together, new jobs and business models will be created. T ...

The Gaze Dialogue Model: Nonverbal Communication in HHI and HRI

Aude Billard, Nuno Ricardo Ferreira Duarte, José Santos-Victor

When humans interact with each other, eye gaze movements have to support motor control as well as communication. On the one hand, we need to fixate the task goal to retrieve visual information required for safe and precise action-execution. On the other ha ...

A Robotic Teacher Community to Foster the Integration of Educational Robotics in School

Sophia Reyes Mury

The digital society requires the acquisition of skills related to computer sciences like computational thinking or competences in coding. Also transversal competences like communication, collaboration and creativity are increasingly important. Educational ...

The symbiotic relationship between educational robotics and computer science in formal education

Francesco Mondada, Frédérique Michèle Chessel-Lazzarotto, Jessica Elke Dehler Zufferey, Barbara Bruno, Laila Abdelsalam El-Hamamsy, Morgane Solène Denise Chevalier

Educational Robotics (ER) has the potential to provide significant benefits to edu-cation, provided an increase in outreach by transitioning from the extra-curricular initiatives in which ER has thrived to formal education. As Computer Science (CS) Educati ...
