Model-Based Capacitive Touch Sensing in Soft Robotics: Achieving Robust Tactile Interactions for Artistic Applications
Carolina Silva-Plata, Carlos Rosel, Barnabas Gavin Cangan +6
In this paper, we present a touch technology to achieve tactile interactivity for human-robot interaction (HRI) in soft robotics. By combining a capacitive touch sensor with an onl…
Sampling-Based Model Predictive Control for Dexterous Manipulation on a Biomimetic Tendon-Driven Hand
Adrian Hess, Alexander M. Kübler, Benedek Forrai +2
Biomimetic and compliant robotic hands offer the potential for human-like dexterity, but controlling them is challenging due to high dimensionality, complex contact interactions, a…
Stretchable Electrohydraulic Artificial Muscle for Full Motion Ranges in Musculoskeletal Antagonistic Joints
Amirhossein Kazemipour, Ronan Hinchet, Robert K. Katzschmann
Artificial muscles play a crucial role in musculoskeletal robotics and prosthetics to approximate the force-generating functionality of biological muscle. However, current artifici…
Low Voltage Electrohydraulic Actuators for Untethered Robotics
Stephan-Daniel Gravert, Elia Varini, Amirhossein Kazemipour +4
Rigid robots can be precise in repetitive tasks, but struggle in unstructured environments. Nature's versatility in such environments inspires researchers to develop biomimetic rob…
Autonomous Marker-less Rapid Aerial Grasping
Erik Bauer, Barnabas Gavin Cangan, Robert K. Katzschmann
In a future with autonomous robots, visual and spatial perception is of utmost importance for robotic systems. Particularly for aerial robotics, there are many applications where u…
Model-Based Disturbance Estimation for a Fiber-Reinforced Soft Manipulator using Orientation Sensing
Barnabas Gavin Cangan, Stefan Escaida Navarro, Bai Yang +3
For soft robots to work effectively in human-centered environments, they need to be able to estimate their state and external interactions based on (proprioceptive) sensors. Estima…
Sim2Real for Soft Robotic Fish via Differentiable Simulation
John Z. Zhang, Yu Zhang, Pingchuan Ma +5
Accurate simulation of soft mechanisms under dynamic actuation is critical for the design of soft robots. We address this gap with our differentiable simulation tool by learning th…
DREAM Lite: Simplifying Robot Assisted Therapy for ASD
Alexandre Mazel, Silviu Matu
Robot-Assisted Therapy (RAT) has successfully been used to improve social skills in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The DREAM project explores how to deliver effecti…
Target Reaching Behaviour for Unfreezing the Robot in a Semi-Static and Crowded Environment
Arturo Cruz-Maya
Robot navigation in human semi-static and crowded environments can lead to the freezing problem, where the robot can not move due to the presence of humans standing on its path and…
MuMMER: Socially Intelligent Human-Robot Interaction in Public Spaces
Mary Ellen Foster, Bart Craenen, Amol Deshmukh +27
In the EU-funded MuMMER project, we have developed a social robot designed to interact naturally and flexibly with users in public spaces such as a shopping mall. We present the la…
Wait for me! Towards socially assistive walk companions
Fernando Garcia, Amit Kumar Pandey, Charles Fattal
The aim of the present study involves designing a humanoid robot guide as a walking trainer for elderly and rehabilitation patients. The system is based on the humanoid robot Peppe…
Towards Dialogue-based Navigation with Multivariate Adaptation driven by Intention and Politeness for Social Robots
Chandrakant Bothe, Fernando Garcia, Arturo Cruz Maya +2
Service robots need to show appropriate social behaviour in order to be deployed in social environments such as healthcare, education, retail, etc. Some of the main capabilities th…
Design method for an anthropomorphic hand able to gesture and grasp
Giulio Cerruti, Damien Chablat, David Gouaillier +1
This paper presents a numerical method to conceive and design the kinematic model of an anthropomorphic robotic hand used for gesturing and grasping. In literature, there are few n…
