TEAM: a parameter-free algorithm to teach collaborative robots motions from user demonstrations
Lorenzo Panchetti, Jianhao Zheng, Mohamed Bouri +1
Learning from demonstrations (LfD) enables humans to easily teach collaborative robots (cobots) new motions that can be generalized to new task configurations without retraining. H…
The Robotic Multi-Object Focal Plane System of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI)
Joseph Harry Silber, Parker Fagrelius, Kevin Fanning +97
A system of 5,020 robotic fiber positioners was installed in 2019 on the Mayall Telescope, at Kitt Peak National Observatory. The robots automatically re-target their optical fiber…
Experimental evaluation of complete safe coordination of astrobots for Sloan Digital Sky Survey V
Matin Macktoobian, Ricardo Araújo, Loïc Grossen +4
The data throughput of massive spectroscopic surveys in the course of each observation is directly coordinated with the number of optical fibers which reach their target. In this p…
SDSS-V Algorithms: Fast, Collision-Free Trajectory Planning for Heavily Overlapping Robotic Fiber Positioners
Conor Sayres, José R. Sánchez-Gallego, Michael R. Blanton +8
Robotic fiber positioner (RFP) arrays are becoming heavily adopted in wide field massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey instruments. RFP arrays decrease nightly operational ove…
Four-Arm Manipulation via Feet Interfaces
Jacob Hernandez Sanchez, Walid Amanhoud, Anaïs Haget +3
We seek to augment human manipulation by enabling humans to control two robotic arms in addition to their natural arms using their feet. Thereby, the hands are free to perform task…
Cable-driven robotic interface for lower limb neuromechanics identification
Hsien-Yung Huang, Ildar Farkhatdinov, Arash Arami +2
This paper presents a versatile cable-driven robotic interface to investigate the single-joint joint neuromechanics of the hip, knee and ankle. This endpoint-based interface offers…
