Speech-based human-robot interaction is often plagued with issues such as reverberation and changes in speaker position that impacts overall performance. In this paper, we show a method in compensating the joint effects of reverberation and the change in speaker position. The acoustic perturbation caused by these two takes its toll on the Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and then the Spoken L...

This paper proposed the design of safety system in cell production system for cellular phones using dual-arm robots. To detect an interruption of human workers during a robot operation, a safe camera system for 3D zone monitoring is introduced. A signal for an interruption is sent to PLC control system of cell production line and an alarm signal is given to robot systems to stop or slow down a ...

In this paper, we present a new method for humanoid robot arm motion planning satisfying multiple constraints. In our method, the humanoid robot arm motion generation is formulated as an optimization problem. Four different constraints, which cover a wide range of humanoid robot tasks, are considered: minimum time, minimum distance, robot hand acceleration and constant joint angular velocity. R...

The purpose of this review document is to summarize the latest developments and research in field robotics related ankle joint rehabilitation, new results, determine actual state art. literature search was carried out using scientific medical databases other websites robots used analyzing from 1950s present.

Redundant robots have received increased attention during the last decades, since they provide solutions to problems investigated for years in the robotic community, e.g. task-space tracking, obstacle avoidance etc. However, robot redundancy may arise problems of kinematic control, since robot joint motion is not uniquely determined. In this paper, a biomimetic approach is proposed for solving ...

The formulation and optimization of joint trajectories for humanoid robots is quite different from this same task for standard robots because of the complexity of humanoid robots’ kinematics and dynamics. In this paper we exploit the similarity between human motion and humanoid robot motion to generate joint trajectories for humanoids. In particular, we show how to transform human motion inform...

In two small studies, we investigated how a virtual human/ robot duo can complement each other in joint interaction with one or more users. The robot takes care of turn management while the virtual human draws attention to the robot. Our results show that having the virtual human address the robot, highlights the latter’s role in the interaction. Having the robot nonverbally indicate the intend...

This paper focuses on static hand-eye coordination. The key issue that will be addressed is the construction of a controller that eliminates the need for calibration. Instead, the system should be self-learning and must be able to adapt itself to changes in the environment. In this application, only positional information in the system will be used; hence the above referencèstatic.' Three coord...

In order to solve the problem in master-slave heterogeneous teleoperation systems, which is that inverse solution of robot cannot be achieved when mapped wrist joint exceeds reachable space joint, a mapping method based on link pose constraint proposed. The means position and orientation hand are same or similar exoskeleton link. proposed method, used an exoskeleton-based system realize consist...
