Human-Robot Interaction using a Multi-Touch Display
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent advances in digital tabletop touch-andgesture-activated screens have allowed for small group collaboration. The newest generation screens simultaneously support multiple users, multiple contact points per user, and gesture recognition. To the authors’ knowledge, this technology has never been applied to robot control. We envision that an interactive multi-touch screen display for robot control would improve human-robot interaction (HRI) and increase efficiency. To this end we have adapted several interfaces for use on the MERL DiamondTouch. In this paper, preliminary findings and observations from user testing with one such interface are presented.

Performance of Multi-Touch Table Interaction and Physically Situated Robot Agents
Recent developments in multi-touch technologies have exposed fertile ground for research in enriched human-robot interaction. Although the technologies have been used for virtual 3D applications, to the authors’ knowledge, ours is the first study to explore the use of a multi-touch table with a physical robot agent. This baseline study explores the control of a single agent with a multi-touch t...
متن کاملThe Haptic Creature Project: Social Human-Robot Interaction through Affective Touch
The communication of emotion plays an important role in social interaction. Research in affective display both in the social sciences and in social human-robot interaction has focused almost exclusively on the modalities of vision and audition; however, touch has received disproportionate attention. This paper presents an overview of the Haptic Creature project, where we seek to develop a deepe...
متن کاملMulti-Dimensional Force Sensor Design for Haptic Human-Computer Interaction
Haptic human-computer interaction (HapHCI) is interaction between a human and a computer with realistic sense of touch. Haptic interaction between human and computer involves solving challenging problems in mechanical design, sensor, actuator, computer graphics, physical-based modelling and rendering algorithm, human capabilities, and other areas. With the increasing applications of HapHCI in v...

Abstract Recently, traditional multi-touch surfaces are extended by stereoscopic displays and 3D tracking technology. While reaching and pointing tasks have a long tradition in human-computer interaction (HCI), the hand pre-shaping which usually accompanies them has rarely been con...

This papers describes a data collection setup and a newly recorded dataset. The main purpose of this dataset is to explore patterns in the focus of visual attention of humans under three different conditions two humans involved in task-based interaction with a robot; same two humans involved in task-based interaction where the robot is replaced by a third human, and a free three-party human int...
