Integrated Design Fabrication and Control of a Bioinspired Multimaterial Soft Robotic Hand
Samuel Alves, Mihail Babcinschi, Afonso Silva +3
Machines that mimic humans have inspired scientists for centuries. Bio-inspired soft robotic hands are a good example of such an endeavor, featuring intrinsic material compliance a…
Robust human position estimation in cooperative robotic cells
António Amorim, Diana Guimarães, Tiago Mendonça +3
Robots are increasingly present in our lives, sharing the workspace and tasks with human co-workers. However, existing interfaces for human-robot interaction / cooperation (HRI/C)…
A study on a Q-Learning algorithm application to a manufacturing assembly problem
Miguel Neves, Miguel Vieira, Pedro Neto
The development of machine learning algorithms has been gathering relevance to address the increasing modelling complexity of manufacturing decision-making problems. Reinforcement…
Online Recognition of Incomplete Gesture Data to Interface Collaborative Robots
M. A. Simão, O. Gibaru, P. Neto
Online recognition of gestures is critical for intuitive human-robot interaction (HRI) and further push collaborative robotics into the market, making robots accessible to more peo…
Improving novelty detection with generative adversarial networks on hand gesture data
Miguel Simão, Pedro Neto, Olivier Gibaru
We propose a novel way of solving the issue of classification of out-of-vocabulary gestures using Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) trained in the Generative Adversarial Network (G…
Event-based tracking of human hands
Laura Duarte, Mohammad Safeea, Pedro Neto
This paper proposes a novel method for human hands tracking using data from an event camera. The event camera detects changes in brightness, measuring motion, with low latency, no…
