Towards Online Robot Interaction Adaptation to Human Upper-limb Mobility Impairments in Return-to-Work Scenarios
Marta Lagomarsino, Francesco Tassi
Work environments are often inadequate and lack inclusivity for individuals with upper-body disabilities. This paper presents a novel online framework for adaptive human-robot inte…
Postural Virtual Fixtures for Ergonomic Physical Interactions with Supernumerary Robotic Bodies
Theodora Kastritsi, Marta Lagomarsino, Arash Ajoudani
Conjoined collaborative robots, functioning as supernumerary robotic bodies (SRBs), can enhance human load tolerance abilities. However, in tasks involving physical interaction wit…
Estimating Trust in Human-Robot Collaboration through Behavioral Indicators and Explainability
Giulio Campagna, Marta Lagomarsino, Marta Lorenzini +3
Industry 5.0 focuses on human-centric collaboration between humans and robots, prioritizing safety, comfort, and trust. This study introduces a data-driven framework to assess trus…
Information-Theoretic Detection of Bimanual Interactions for Dual-Arm Robot Plan Generation
Elena Merlo, Marta Lagomarsino, Arash Ajoudani
Programming by demonstration is a strategy to simplify the robot programming process for non-experts via human demonstrations. However, its adoption for bimanual tasks is an undere…
Intuitive Programming, Adaptive Task Planning, and Dynamic Role Allocation in Human-Robot Collaboration
Marta Lagomarsino, Elena Merlo, Andrea Pupa +5
Remarkable capabilities have been achieved by robotics and AI, mastering complex tasks and environments. Yet, humans often remain passive observers, fascinated but uncertain how to…
Lightweight Facial Landmark Detection in Thermal Images via Multi-Level Cross-Modal Knowledge Transfer
Qiyi Tong, Olivia Nocentini, Marta Lagomarsino +3
Facial Landmark Detection (FLD) in thermal imagery is critical for applications in challenging lighting conditions, but it is hampered by the lack of rich visual cues. Conventional…
