You Tell, I Do, and We Swap until we Connect All the Gold Mines!

Pierre Dillenbourg, Barbara Bruno, Jauwairia Nasir, Utku Norman

The Project JUSThink has a double goal: (i), to help train the Computational Thinking skills of children with a collaborative, robot-mediated activity, (ii), to acquire insights about how children detect and solve misunderstandings, and what keeps them eng ...

Design and development of the efficient anguilliform swimming robot- MAR

Auke Ijspeert, Peter Eckert, Anouk Looijestijn

Propulsion of swimming robots at the surface and underwater is largely dominated by rotary propellers due to high thrust, but at the cost of low efficiency. Due to their inherently high speed turning motion, sharp propeller blades and generated noise, they ...

A Morphing Cargo Drone for Safe Flight in Proximity of Humans

Dario Floreano, Przemyslaw Mariusz Kornatowski, William John Stewart, Mir Alikhan Bin Mohammad Feroskhan

Delivery drones used by logistics companies today are equipped with unshielded propellers, which represent a major hurdle for in-hand parcel delivery. The exposed propeller blades are hazardous to unsuspecting bystanders, pets, and untrained users. One sol ...

The conventional approach to parcel placement in most delivery drone designs today is to place the parcel centrally beneath the drone's rotor plane. However, if the parcel is too large, this will result in an obstruction of the propeller slipstream, incurr ...

Learning from demonstration with model-based Gaussian process

Sylvain Calinon, David Ginsbourger, Noémie Laure Gwendoline Jaquier

In learning from demonstrations, it is often desirable to adapt the behavior of the robot in function of the variability retrieved from human demonstrations and the (un)certainty encoded in different parts of the task. In this paper, we propose a novel mul ...

A method for remotely controlling an operated unmanned object, comprises defining of a set of control movements of an operator; selecting of minimal necessary signals to reliably acquire the operator's control movements; defining of a mapping of the contro ...

We propose to make a demonstration of the experimental setup that we have developed to measure human bimanual dexterity in watchmaking. These measurements and their analysis are used to develop robot controllers with similar dexterity. Next we explain the ...

This paper addresses the trajectory tracking problem of a 2D caged flying robot in contact with a wall. To simplify the contact problem, the models are constructed on a vertical two-dimensional plane, and our objective is to let the quadrotor hover or move ...

Learning Ground Traversability From Simulations

Mobile ground robots operating on unstructured terrain must predict which areas of the environment they are able to pass in order to plan feasible paths. We address traversability estimation as a heightmap classification problem: we build a convolutional n ...
