Soft Manipulation Surface With Reduced Actuator Density For Heterogeneous Object Manipulation
Pratik Ingle, Kasper Støy, Andres Faiña
Object manipulation in robotics faces challenges due to diverse object shapes, sizes, and fragility. Gripper-based methods offer precision and low degrees of freedom (DOF) but the…
Robots can defuse high-intensity conflict situations
Morten Roed Frederiksen, Kasper Støy
This paper investigates the specific scenario of high-intensity confrontations between humans and robots, to understand how robots can defuse the conflict. It focuses on the effect…
On the causality between affective impact and coordinated human-robot reactions
Morten Roed Frederiksen, Kasper Støy
In an effort to improve how robots function in social contexts, this paper investigates if a robot that actively shares a reaction to an event with a human alters how the human per…
Heterogeneous object manipulation on nonlinear soft surface through linear controller
Pratik Ingle, Kasper Støy, Andres Faiña
Manipulation surfaces indirectly control and reposition objects by actively modifying their shape or properties rather than directly gripping objects. These surfaces, equipped with…
