Broccoli: Sprinkling Lightweight Vocabulary Learning into Everyday Information Diets

Robert West

The learning of a new language remains to this date a cognitive task that requires considerable diligence and willpower, recent advances and tools notwithstanding. In this paper, we propose Broccoli, a new paradigm aimed at reducing the required effort by ...

What attracts our visual attention? A study on saliency mapping for architectural daylit scenes based on virtual reality data

Caroline Karmann

Understanding what elements of our visual environment guide our attention would be a crucial asset for design. In architecture, this knowledge could influence the position and size of the various components (e.g., windows) to support ergonomic, safe and em ...

Real-Time Cognitive Workload Monitoring Based on Machine Learning Using Physiological Signals in Rescue Missions

David Atienza Alonso, Adriana Arza Valdes, Fabio Isidoro Tiberio Dell'Agnola, Niloofar Momeni

High levels of cognitive workload decreases human's performance and leads to failures with catastrophic outcomes in risky missions. Today, reliable cognitive workload detection presents a common major challenge, since the workload is not directly observabl ...

Physiological Characterization of Need for Assistance in Rescue Missions with Drones

David Atienza Alonso, Leila Cammoun, Fabio Isidoro Tiberio Dell'Agnola

The use of drones is recently gaining particular interest in the field of search and rescue. However, particular skills are still required to actively operate in a mission without crashing the drone. This limits their effective and efficient employment in ...

Soft robot design methodology for ‘push-button’ manufacturing

Jamie Paik

‘Push-button’ or fully automated manufacturing would enable the production of robots with zero intervention from human hands. Realizing this utopia requires a fundamental shift from a sequential (design–materials–manufacturing) to a concurrent design metho ...

Serviceability assessment of energy pile groups through design charts

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

The estimation of the vertical displacement of energy pile groups subjected to thermal (and mechanical) loads is needed for a complete geotechnical and structural design of the piles in situations where these foundations may be located sufficiently close t ...

Influence of Facial Feedback and Mind Perception During a Cooperative Human-Robot Task in Schizophrenia

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Laura Bénédicte Marine Cohen

Rapid progress in the area of humanoid robots offers tremendous possibilities for investigating and improving social competences in people with social deficits, but remains yet unexplored in schizophrenia. In this study, we examined the influence of social ...

Excitation and Stabilization of Passive Dynamics in Locomotion using Hierarchical Operational Space Control

Roland Siegwart, Marco Hutter

This paper describes a hierarchical operational space control (OSC) method based on least square optimization and outlines different ways to reduce the dimensionality of the optimization vector. The framework allows to emulate various behaviors by prioriti ...

Ergonomic handle for haptic devices

Hannes Bleuler, Ricardo Daniel Rita Beira

A ergonomic handle that can be added to existing haptic devices, composed by a spherical mechanism providing hand orientation and a grasping mechanism is shown. Both the proposed spherical mechanism and the handle have been ergonomically designed to avoid ...
