The Effects of Selected Object Features on a Pick-and-Place Task: a Human Multimodal Dataset
Linda Lastrico, Valerio Belcamino, Alessandro Carfì +4
We propose a dataset to study the influence of object-specific characteristics on human pick-and-place movements and compare the quality of the motion kinematics extracted by vario…
A Modular Framework for Flexible Planning in Human-Robot Collaboration
Valerio Belcamino, Mariya Kilina, Linda Lastrico +2
This paper presents a comprehensive framework to enhance Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC) in real-world scenarios. It introduces a formalism to model articulated tasks, requiring co…
Expressing and Inferring Action Carefulness in Human-to-Robot Handovers
Linda Lastrico, Nuno Ferreira Duarte, Alessandro Carfì +4
Implicit communication plays such a crucial role during social exchanges that it must be considered for a good experience in human-robot interaction. This work addresses implicit c…
If You Are Careful, So Am I! How Robot Communicative Motions Can Influence Human Approach in a Joint Task
Linda Lastrico, Nuno Ferreira Duarte, Alessandro Carfì +4
As humans, we have a remarkable capacity for reading the characteristics of objects only by observing how another person carries them. Indeed, how we perform our actions naturally…
"iCub, We Forgive You!" Investigating Trust in a Game Scenario with Kids
Francesca Cocchella, Giulia Pusceddu, Giulia Belgiovine +3
This study presents novel strategies to investigate the mutual influence of trust and group dynamics in children-robot interaction. We implemented a game-like experimental activity…
Robots with Different Embodiments Can Express and Influence Carefulness in Object Manipulation
Linda Lastrico, Luca Garello, Francesco Rea +4
Humans have an extraordinary ability to communicate and read the properties of objects by simply watching them being carried by someone else. This level of communicative skills and…
Synthesis and Execution of Communicative Robotic Movements with Generative Adversarial Networks
Luca Garello, Linda Lastrico, Alessandra Sciutti +3
Object manipulation is a natural activity we perform every day. How humans handle objects can communicate not only the willfulness of the acting, or key aspects of the context wher…
From Movement Kinematics to Object Properties: Online Recognition of Human Carefulness
Linda Lastrico, Alessandro Carfì, Francesco Rea +2
When manipulating objects, humans finely adapt their motions to the characteristics of what they are handling. Thus, an attentive observer can foresee hidden properties of the mani…
Property-Aware Robot Object Manipulation: a Generative Approach
Luca Garello, Linda Lastrico, Francesco Rea +3
When transporting an object, we unconsciously adapt our movement to its properties, for instance by slowing down when the item is fragile. The most relevant features of an object a…
Careful with That! Observation of Human Movements to Estimate Objects Properties
Linda Lastrico, Alessandro Carfì, Alessia Vignolo +3
Humans are very effective at interpreting subtle properties of the partner's movement and use this skill to promote smooth interactions. Therefore, robotic platforms that support h…
