This paper discusses advancements on alternative communication methods between robots utilizing deictic gestures and body language. The provided approach boosts the performance of the formerly developed ROS-oriented system and grants increased accuracy and robustness. More precisely, the paper presents: a) a temporal tracking technique responsible to detect and track the arm of the pointing agent...
This paper addresses the idea of establishing symbolic communication between mobile robots through gesturing. Humans communicate using body language and gestures in addition to other linguistic modalities like prosody and text or dialog structure. This research aims to develop a pointing gesture detection system for robot to robot communication scenarios to grant robots an ability to convey object...
This paper presents a physical human-robot interaction (pHRI) interface, which enables the user to control a walking humanoid robot through physical contact. A human operator guides the robot in parent-child-like behavior by exerting force onto the hand of the robot. In contrast to a conventional approach of pHRI in which force/torque measurements are applied, the proposed solution is based on sensorless...
A major issue in the field of mobile robotics today is the detection and tracking of moving objects (DATMO) from a moving observer. In dynamic and highly populated environments, this problem presents a complex and computationally demanding task. It can be divided in sub-problems such as robot’s relative motion compensation, feature extraction, measurement clustering, data association and targets’...
