An audio system is one of the basic components of a humanoid robot designed for natural interaction.For many interaction purposes it is sufficient to use the sound detection and localization as attention system for the vision system.In this paper the audio perception module of the robot ROMAN is presented including the integration into the existing control structure and the localization algorithm...
We experimentally test the effectiveness and reliability of the accelerometer-based tilt sensor as an interaction device for pointing and scrolling tasks on handheld devices. The touch screen and stylus based interfaces on these devices requires using two hands: one for holding the device and the other for driving the stylus. In our experiment, the participants use only one hand to interact with the...
