An Embodied, Platform-invariant Architecture for Connecting High-level Spatial Commands to Platform Articulation
A. Jang Sher, U. Huzaifa, J. Li +3
In contexts such as teleoperation, robot reprogramming, human-robot-interaction, and neural prosthetics, conveying movement commands to a robotic platform is often a limiting facto…
Toward an Expressive Bipedal Robot: Variable Gait Synthesis and Validation in a Planar Model
Umer Huzaifa, Catherine Maguire, Amy LaViers
Humans are efficient, yet expressive in their motion. Human walking behaviors can be used to walk across a great variety of surfaces without falling and to communicate internal sta…
Expressivity in Natural and Artificial Systems
Amy LaViers
Roboticists are trying to replicate animal behavior in artificial systems. Yet, quantitative bounds on capacity of a moving platform (natural or artificial) to express information…
Choreographic and Somatic Approaches for the Development of Expressive Robotic Systems
Amy LaViers, Catie Cuan, Madison Heimerdinger +10
As robotic systems are moved out of factory work cells into human-facing environments questions of choreography become central to their design, placement, and application. With a h…
An Information Theoretic Measure for Robot Expressivity
A. LaViers
This paper presents a principled way to think about articulated movement for artificial agents and a measurement of platforms that produce such movement. In particular, in human-fa…
