Exploration-based model learning with self-attention for risk-sensitive robot control

Sudong Lee

Model-based reinforcement learning for robot control offers the advantages of overcoming concerns on data collection and iterative processes for policy improvement in model-free methods. However, both methods use exploration strategy relying on heuristics ...

2023

Soft robots aim to revolutionize how robotic systems interact with the environment thanks to their inherent compliance. Some of these systems are even able to modulate their physical softness. However, simply equipping a robot with softness will not genera ...

Wearable Robotics for Impaired Upper-Limb Assistance and Rehabilitation: State of the Art and Future Perspectives

Silvestro Micera

Despite more than thirty-five years of research on wearable technologies to assist the upper-limb and a multitude of promising preliminary results, the goal of restoring pre-impairment quality of life of people with physical disabilities has not been fully ...

Soft Sensorized Physical Twin for Harvesting Raspberries

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes, Kai Christian Junge

The use of robotic systems for harvesting of crops is a growing application domain in the agriculture sector. A key challenge is to develop robotic systems to harvest soft fruits such as raspberries which require delicate handling as they are easily damage ...

Active origami platforms for human-robot interactions

Frédéric Henri Vaskin Giraud

Robots are employed to assist humans in lengthy, challenging, and repetitive tasks. However, the fields of rehabilitation, haptics, and assistive robotics have shown a significant need to support and interact with people in their everyday life. To facilita ...

Comprehensive Interactive Soft Interfaces for Wearable Tactile Feedback

Harshal Arun Sonar

As the field of robotics continues to grow outside the manufacturing environment into our daily lives, the interactions between humans and robots are increasingly becoming close and dynamic. This type of environment requires robots to be less rigid, multi- ...

EPFL2021

Stiffness variation and real-time position feedback are critical for any robotic system but most importantly for active and wearable devices to interact with the user and environment. Currently, for compact sizes, there is a lack of solutions bringing high ...

A Multimodal, Enveloping Soft Gripper: Shape Conformation, Bioinspired Adhesion, and Expansion-Driven Suction

Yufei Hao, Shantonu Biswas

A key challenge in robotics is to create efficient methods for grasping objects with diverse shapes, sizes, poses, and properties. Grasping with hand-like end effectors often requires careful selection of hand orientation and finger placement. Here, we pre ...

Thought consciousness and source monitoring depend on robotically-controlled sensorimotor conflicts and illusory states

Olaf Blanke, Hannes Bleuler, Andrea Serino, Fosco Bernasconi, Herberto Dhanis Pedro De Barros Camacho, Roy Salomon, Giulio Rognini, Masayuki Hara, Marco Solcà, Giedre Stripeikyte, Pierre Progin, Polona Pozeg

Thought insertion (TI) is characterized by the experience that certain thoughts, occurring in one’s mind, are not one’s own, but the thoughts of somebody else and suggestive of a psychotic disorder. We report a robotics-based method able to investigate the ...
