Surface Disinfection using Ultraviolet Lightwith a Mobile Manipulation Robot
Alan G. Sanchez, William D. Smart
Robots are being increasingly used in the fight against highly-infectious diseases such as Ebola, MERS, and SARS-COV-2. Many of the robots that are being used employ ultraviolet li…
Framing Effects on Privacy Concerns about a Home Telepresence Robot
Matthew Rueben, Frank J. Bernieri, Cindy M. Grimm +1
Privacy-sensitive robotics is an emerging area of HRI research. Judgments about privacy would seem to be context-dependent, but none of the promising work on contextual "frames" ha…
A Critical Look at Smart Wheelchairs
Benjamin Narin, Makenzie Brian, William D. Smart
Research into smart wheelchairs has been conducted for decades, but we have yet to see the widespread use of this technology among full-time wheelchair users. We argue that the mai…
A Taxonomy of Privacy Constructs for Privacy-Sensitive Robotics
Matthew Rueben, Cindy M. Grimm, Frank J. Bernieri +1
The introduction of robots into our society will also introduce new concerns about personal privacy. In order to study these concerns, we must do human-subject experiments that inv…
Sketched Floor plans versus SLAM maps: A Comparison
Leo Bowen-Biggs, Suzanne Dazo, Yili Zhang +5
Maps --- specifically floor plans --- are useful for a variety of tasks from arranging furniture to designating conceptual or functional spaces (e.g., kitchen, walkway). We present…
Using PCA to Efficiently Represent State Spaces
William Curran, Tim Brys, Matthew Taylor +1
Reinforcement learning algorithms need to deal with the exponential growth of states and actions when exploring optimal control in high-dimensional spaces. This is known as the cur…
