This study presents an experiment highlighting how participants combine facial expressions and haptic feedback to perceive emotions when interacting with an expressive humanoid robot. Participants were asked to interact with the humanoid robot through a handshake behavior while looking at its facial expressions. Experimental data were examined within the information integration theory framework. Results...
The analysis of the conceptual spring mass model for running reveals swing-leg placement policies that generate very robust locomotion in unobserved terrain with large changes in ground height. However, while this theoretical result suggests a potential for large improvements on the robustness of running machines, it has so far not been demonstrated on a physical robot. Here we address this implementation...
Regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces (RPNIs) are for signal transfer between peripheral nerves inside the body to controllers for motorized prosthetics external to the body. Within the residual limb of an amputee, surgical construction of a RPNI connects a remaining peripheral nerve and spare muscle. Nerve signals become concentrated within the RPNI. Currently metal electrodes implanted on the...
