Embodied Human-Robot Interaction via Acoustics: A MARL Approach with AcoustoBots for Spatial Data Physicalization
Shiqi Liu, Narsimlu Kemsaram, Prateek Mittal +2
Traditional data physicalization is often static and disconnected from real environments, limiting its ability to convey embodied spatial dynamics and engage users. To address this…
A Progress-Aware Leader-Follower Midair Docking System for Dual-Drone Aerial Manipulation
Yifan Cai, Jan Ming Kevin Tan, Xiangqi Li +3
Reliable midair docking between small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is essential for modular aerial cooperation and manipulation, but it requires precise relative-pose control an…
Decentralized LLM-Driven Coordination of Acoustic Robots for Contactless Object Manipulation
Yingying Wang, Narsimlu Kemsaram, Sriram Subramanian
Natural language interfaces can simplify interaction with multi-robot systems, especially when non-expert users need to issue high-level commands. Acoustic manipulation using ultra…
A Gesture-Based Visual Learning Model for Acoustophoretic Interactions using a Swarm of AcoustoBots
Alex Lin, Lei Gao, Narsimlu Kemsaram +1
AcoustoBots are mobile acoustophoretic robots capable of delivering mid-air haptics, directional audio, and acoustic levitation, but existing implementations rely on scripted comma…
